Industrial Magnetics, Inc.'s Liquid line Magnetic T-Traps remove unwanted ferrous and work-hardened stainless contaminants from processing lines. They capture fine ferrous particles that are created by wear of upstream processing equipment and often pass undetected through electronic metal detectors. T-Traps are typically placed in front of pumps, screens, and mills to protect vital plant equipment from costly metal damage and system downtime.
The Multi-Tube Style Liquid Line T-Trap employs a slip-in cage of a stainless steel permanent magnetic tube(s), which captures ferrous tramp metal particles and improves the purity of the product. The advantage of tube-style magnetic T-traps is that as metal particles collect, they migrate to the rear of the tubes where they remain protected from wash-off until the tubes are cleaned. With its removable lid design, cleaning the T-Trap is an easy process. Simply remove the lid with the magnetic tubes, wipe clean, and reinstall.
Installation of the Tube Style magnet can be in any position. For complete body drainage (no sump area), install T-Traps in vertical lines. Installation locations must allow access for cleaning collected metal from the magnet(s). T-Traps can also be mounted in horizontal or sloped lines without affecting the magnetic efficiency.
