New easy-clean Russell Magnetic Separator attracts Food and Pharmaceutical Manufacturers
Operating vibratory sifters in highly competitive environments, food and pharmaceutical manufacturers know just how important product quality is. With reputations at stake, and the threat of litigation present should they fail to meet high standards, these companies must ensure their products are free from any contamination.
Russell Finex, a market-leading provider of fine mesh separation technology, has a rich history serving these industries, supplying solutions for vibratory sifters, ensuring total product quality. However, in some instances, companies face the problem of ferrous contaminants, which are difficult to extract using traditional vibratory sifters alone.
Ferrous contamination can occur at several points along the production line. For example, wear and tear of vibratory sifters and other equipment can result in metal particles such as rust or iron falling into the product, jeopardizing product purity.
A new Stainless Steel magnetic separator has been launched by Russell Finex to eliminate the problem of ferrous contamination through vibratory sifters and to improve product quality. To be used on the range of Compact sifters, including the high-containment Compact Airlock Sieve™, as well as the Finex 22™ model, the magnet instantly attracts ferrous particles and securely holds them onto its bars, keeping unwanted material out of the final product. The number of bars in place is optimized to strike the right balance between coverage of open space and magnetic field strength without restricting throughput rates.
To ease the removal of trapped contaminants, Russell Finex has improved the design of the new magnetic separator, allowing for quick and easy cleaning between batches. Instead of being welded directly to the ends of a circular sieve frame, the magnetic bars are attached to a central support beam, leaving free space between the bar ends and the frame. This allows ferrous material to be wiped to the end of the bars, where it can be easily collected as it falls way.
Ray Singh, Sales and Marketing Director, commented that ‘The enhanced design of the magnetic separator is an option we decided to offer as a direct result of responding to our customers requests. Food and pharmaceutical companies cannot afford to accept any level of contamination, however small. This new version offers a straightforward way of removing ferrous particles which otherwise might go unnoticed in production and also simplifies cleaning of the magnet.’
Constructed from 316L grade stainless steel, and available in a brush or mirror polished finish, the magnetic separator has been strenuously tested at Russell’s ISO:9001 accredited facilities to ensure complete reliability.
Available as a standard ferrite model, made of material providing a nominal 2000 Gauss strength at the surface, or in more powerful rare earth options made of neodymium iron boron reaching up to 7000 Gauss, this product is an essential tool when the risk of ferrous contamination is present.
For over 75 years, Russell Finex has manufactured and supplied vibratory sifters and screeners, strainers and separators to improve the quality, enhance productivity, safeguard operators’ health, and ensure powders and liquids are contamination-free. Throughout the world, Russell Finex serves a variety of industries with applications including food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, adhesives, plastisols, paint, coatings, metal powders and ceramics.
