TYPICAL INSTALLATION
Self Cleaner Electro Overhead Magnet
-
Cleans itself automatically
-
Cleans itself completely
-
Runs quietly
-
Extra thick belt 3 ply
-
Cleats are vulcanised
-
Discharges clear of conveyor
A thick heavy duty rubber belt moves continuously and
quietly around the magnet. This belt intercepts attracted metal and sweeps it
off the magnet. There's never a chance for excessive build up of iron - too
much iron on the face of a magnet shorting out magnetism. Rubber cleats
vulcanised to the belt ensure complete sweeping of all metal. Vulcanising
prevents attracted metal from lodging under cleats as is the case with other
designs with cleats bolted to a belt. Permanent magnet extensions are available
to extend trajectory of discharged metal.
-
Four pulleys conserve space
-
Pulleys are crowned
-
Self aligning bearings
-
Interchangeable bearings
-
Greaseable bearings
A 4 pulley design is used on nearly all models. This
allows a saving in space and weight compared to a 2 pulley design. All pulleys
are crowned for reliable belt tracking. Bearings are of course greaseable and
self aligning. Besides that, all bearings are interchangeable.
-
Continuous duty
-
Obsoletes oil tank designs
-
No plumbing
-
Mounts at any angle
-
Support above or below
All models are built for continuous magnet energising and
for continuous belt cleaning. Energising is by direct current. Dings can supply
rectifiers. Conventional designs need external control of oil expansion and
moisture. There are no external oil tanks or plumbing on the Dings design. They
aren't needed. That means the Dings design can be mounted at any angle - even
upside down. Steel lugs are provided for suspended mounting or underneath
mounting.
-
Wound with anodised aluminum
-
Insulation better than class H
-
Convenient terminal box
-
Three year coil guarantee
All models are built with aluminum strip (not wire) and
not plain aluminum but anodised aluminum. Insulation quality in the coil far
exceeds class H. The coil is virtually burnout proof. A 3 year guarantee
applies against coil burnout. Coil leads are connected to leak proof terminals
inside an easy to get at gasketed terminal box.
Stationary Electro Overhead Magnet
-
Economy
-
Saves space
-
Less weight
Stationary Electro Overhead Magnets are identical to the
magnets inside Self Cleaner models. There's no need to invest in a self
cleaning system for removal of occasional tramp iron or small quantities of
contaminants. Stationary models are cleaned simply by shutting off d-c power. A
trolley or small crane can be used to move the magnet to a discharge bin.
-
Cable suspension supplied
-
Separate suspension members
-
Turnbuckle adjustment
-
No cable measuring
-
No cable cutting
A 3 point cable sling suspension system with bull ring is
included. Each of the 3 suspension members is independent of the others. One
member includes a turnbuckle for quick and easy one time adjustment of mounting
angle. Adjustment can be made while the magnet is hanging in position. There's
no measuring, shortening, lengthening or cutting of cable.
-
No maintenance
-
Silent operation
Stationary models have no moving parts. All steel sides
plus the stainless steel bottom are welded together with continuous welds.
There's nothing to lubricate, tighten or replace.
Stationary models mount over a head pulley or anywhere
over the straight section of a conveyor. A head head pulley installation costs
less. (see discussion under Self Cleaners)
