Magnetic Filter

Avoid problems in the cooling lines and extend the lifetime of your mould heater or chiller by using a magnetic filter. Magnetic filters are a one-off investment – with no replaceable / consumable cartridges.

One of the biggest problems we see in injection moulding circuits is rust (ferrous) corrosions which will contaminate the cooling water and is commonly evident when seeing the orange build up inside flow regulators (sight glasses). Ferrous contamination in fluids can act as a breeding ground for bacteria, therefore maintaining clean, polished fluids considerably reduces the risk of human contact with such bacteria.

Contaminated fluid enters the inlet port where it is dispersed by the unique tapered radial flow channels. Fluid passes down the outside of the centrally mounted rare earth magnetic core which captures contamination particles along its length, resulting in excellent filtration efficiency. The geometry of the magnetic flux circuit means that contamination builds up in a controlled way, ensuring that the filter can never block, irrespective of how much contamination is held. Channels remain open allowing fluid to continue to flow freely. The filtered fluid flows through the return slots located in the upper section of the magnetic core, down through the centre and exits through the outlet port.

Magnetic filters can either replace, or be used in conjunction with media filters. Either way, it's high performance extraction significantly reduces the consumption of disposable filter media such as paper, bands, cartridges, and socks.

Cleaning

Using the supplied cleaning tool, a fully contaminated core can be cleaned in under 30 seconds. Only metallic particles are removed from the filter and these can be easily disposed. There are no dirty cartridges.
