Design
Two plate magnets are mounted on opposite sides of an offset ("humped") housing installed in a vertical spout. Falling material strikes the first magnet, changes course, then slides across the second. Iron that escapes the first face is caught on the second, giving clean product even with high volume or poor-flowing material. The magnets are hinged, so they swing open for periodic cleaning without removing the unit from the line.
Hump magnets can be supplied to suit any pipe or duct size.
