magnetic filtration equipment for industrial fluids

1. Magnetic Filtration
Operations Principles and
Installation Advise

2. Why use magnetic filtration?
•Environmental Benefits
•Disposal Cost
Landfill reduction & in some cases elimination
•Reduction in cost of raw material
Because fine filtration is magnetically generated the action of tripping the
chemicals and additives from the fluids does not occur.
No media to purchase or install.
•Reclamation of collected particulate
The particulate is collected on the magnet as a pure material, such as carbide can
be sold back to be recycled.
No Media contamination!!
•Environmental Responsibility
The majority of companies are aware of their responsibility to the
environment this sales benefit cannot be overlooked

3. Why use magnetic filtration?
• Lower Operating Costs
• Longer lasting Fluids
Removing all particulate down to submicron increases the life of the fluids
and reduces significantly the risk of bacterial growth.
• No Consumables
There is no consumable used, this is a true “one off cost” removing cost
generated by,
Loss of fluid
Purchase and fitting of new filters.
Disposal and land fill cost

4. Why use magnetic filtration?
•Increased Productivity
•Maintain Flow Rates
The lack of resistance to flow maintains high flow rates and avoids the risk
of Burst bags even when fully loaded.
•Perfect Fine Filtration
Normal filters 5 micron and below can strip anti-foaming, anti-bacterial and other
additives from the fluids, the magnet filter leaves all additives in suspension.
•Reduced Wear
Because all fine particulate is removed the abrasive effect on the machine is vastly
reduced, extending machine and cutter life.
•Improved Surface Finish
The removal of the fine particulate also improves the surface finish of the
components being produced.

5. Media filtration
What is the difference between Magnetic and Media Filtration?
Conventional filters, are supplied to a set filtration level, If the media is 20
micron it will stop particulate greater than this size from passing.
Smaller Particulate will pass through causing damage to your components,
fluids and your machine.
Finer Filters can be purchased, however finer the filter the quicker they block,
need to be replaced and can affect the additives in the fluid.

6. Magnetic filtration
What is the difference between Magnetic and Media Filtration?
Unlike conventional filters, Automag is not particle size sensitive; if
the particle is ferrous, no matter how small (even sub micron) one of
the Eclipse Magnetics range of filters will remove it!
This process will not strip the oil of additives but will help to subdue
bacterial growth.

7. Where to use magnetic filtration
• Magnetic filtration can be used in virtually any fluid application.
• Metalworking.
Liquids Coolants / Oils.
Applications Grinding, Milling, Honing, Lapping,
Fine Finishing, Wire Cutting, EDM,
Laser Cutting, CNC
• Finishing
Liquids Cleaning Fluids
Applications Wash Tanks, Part Washing,
Cleaning Stations
• Hydraulic Systems
Liquids Oils / fluids
Applications Hydraulic Systems, Test Beds

8. Where to use magnetic filtration
• Magnetic filtration can be used in virtually any fluid application.
• Fuel Storage and Handling.
Liquids Diesel, Bio Fuels, Petrol, Oils.
Applications Tank Cleaning, Storage Inlet and Outlet
Points, Fuel Dispensers
• Gearboxes
Liquids Oil
Applications General, Gearbox Maintenance.
• Heating Systems
Liquids Hydronic Fluids
Applications Industrial Heating Systems
Domestic Systems
Water treatment

9. Where To Install
•On fluid return (if possible),
Prevents build up of contamination in the tank
•Between clean and dirty tank
Offline cleaning, this is excellent an ensuring polished fluids.
•Supply to m/c
Protect the machine and components
M/C Out line
Return Dirty Clean
Tank Tank
