Magnom filter

MAGNOM® magnetic filter – magnetic particle separation

The MAGNOM® magnetic filter removes ferrous particles and magnetite from the oil in a lubrication or hydraulic circuit. Unlike a conventional barrier filter that traps particles in a mesh, the MAGNOM® uses a strong, structured magnetic field to attract and hold iron-bearing contamination — including the very fine wear particles and magnetite sludge that pass straight through ordinary filters. Because these fine ferrous particles are among the most damaging to bearings, gears and surfaces, capturing them keeps the oil cleaner and the components healthier, extending the life of the whole system. Oil flows through the filter past a set of magnetic collectors arranged so that the field reaches across the full flow path. Ferrous particles — down to sub-micron magnetite — are pulled out of the oil and held on the collectors, while the oil passes through with very low flow resistance. When the collectors are full, they are simply cleaned and returned to service, so there is no disposable element to replace.

As a magnetic filter, it is the ideal complement to barrier filtration where fine iron contamination is the problem. In service it is low-maintenance — the collectors are cleaned on a routine interval and returned to use, rather than replaced.
