Attractive separators

A compact, high-quality neodymium-boron-iron rare earth permanent magnet called Erium 3000 that’s reportedly capable of developing magnetic fields up to 25 times stronger than conventional ceramic or alnico units is the key feature in new Rare Earth (RE) Drum Separators from Eriez Magnetics (Erie, PA). The additional strength helps in removing weakly magnetic, or very fine iron contaminants from most materials.

The increased strength at a greater distance, high gradients, and increased holding force of Eriez RE Drums allow them to hold contaminants so tightly that wipe–off by product flow is virtually eliminated. So, these drums reportedly are an ideal choice where high product purity is required. Standard models in diameters from 12-36 inches and in widths from 12-60 inches are available. -CK
