Introduction:
Suspended magnets are suspended above the conveyor belt to effectively remove occasional magnetic tramp iron or ferrous contaminants from materials being transported. They utilize magnetic force to attract and hold ferrous objects, preventing them from causing damage or interfering with downstream processes.
Suspended magnets play a crucial role in industries such as mining, recycling, and bulk handling.

Similarities and Differences:
When installing suspended magnets, customers usually need to weld a shelf, the suspended magnet is suspended this shelf via sling, and adjust the height of the sling and the angle of the suspended magnet to keep the iron remover in an optimal working state.
Both permanent suspended magnets and electro suspended magnets serve the same purpose of separating ferrous materials in conveyor systems. They effectively remove tramp iron, ensuring product quality and protecting downstream equipment. However, their main difference lies in the source of the magnetic field. Permanent suspended magnets have a built-in permanent magnet, whereas electro suspended magnets rely on an energized coil to generate the magnetic field.
Permanent suspended Magnet: A permanent suspended magnet consists of a permanent magnet, typically made of high-quality rare-earth materials such as neodymium, ferrite, or baron. These magnets have a strong magnetic field that can attract and hold ferrous materials. Permanent suspended magnets do not require an external power source and provide a constant magnetic field.Permanent suspended magnets provide reliable and consistent separation of ferrous materials and are known for their long service life.
Extra Clean Device for Permanent suspended Magnet: Permanent suspended magnets can come equipped with an extra clean device to enhance their tramp iron removal efficiency. This device is usually a non-magnetic stripper plate or a slider plate located below the magnet‘s magnetic face. It ensures that the tramp iron adhering to the magnet is released and falls away from the conveyed material, preventing re-contamination.

Electro suspended Magnet: An electro suspended magnet, also known as an electromagnet, utilizes an electric current flowing through a coil to generate a magnetic field. This type of magnet offers the advantage of adjustable magnetic strength, allowing for precise control over the attraction and holding force. Electro suspended magnets are commonly used in applications where varying magnetic field strength is required or when the magnet needs to be turned off for specific operations.
While the electric current pass through the insulated wire coil to generate magnetic field,heat will generated inevitably,excessive heat will affect the work efficiency of the electromagnetic separator,what the worse is even burned the insulated wire coil,so how to discharge the excessive heat is an important type and part of costs constitute to the electro magnetic separator.How to discharge the excessive heat?The international general three ways is air cooling,fan cooling and oil cooling.But the best way to discharge the excessive heat is oil cooling.
