Wet Drum Magnetic Separator

A Wet Drum Magnetic Separator is a device that uses a rotating drum with a magnet inside to separate magnetic materials from non-magnetic materials in a liquid medium. The drum is usually submerged in a tank that contains the slurry to be separated. The magnetic materials are attracted by the drum and discharged at the end, while the non-magnetic materials pass through the drum and exit the tank. The Wet Drum Magnetic Separator is used to recover magnetite or ferrosilicon in heavy media operations and to concentrate ferrous and weakly magnetic ores.

The Wet Drum Magnetic Separator is widely used in various industries, such as recycling, mining, plastic, steel, chemical, and pharmaceutical. The Wet Drum Magnetic Separator can improve the quality and purity of the products, reduce the waste and energy consumption, and protect the downstream machinery from damage. The Wet Drum Magnetic Separator can be manual or automatic, and can vary in the strength of the magnet, the speed and length of the drum, and the depth of the magnetic field.

Working Principal

The liquid flows through a semi-circular separating chamber beneath a stainless-steel drum gather is a semi-circular separating chamber through which the liquid flows. The cylinder consisting of permanent magnetic discs are positioned within the drum to which the magnetizable particles are attracted. By rotating the drum, the filter cake is lifted out of the slurry and the magnetic field.
