Typical Installation

Stationary Electro Overhead Magnet

Economy
Saves space
Less weight

Stationary Electro Overhead Magnets are identical to the magnets inside Self Cleaner models. There’s no need to invest in a self cleaning system for removal of occasional tramp iron or small quantities of contaminants. Stationary models are cleaned simply by shutting off d-c power. A trolley or small crane can be used to move the magnet to a discharge bin.

A 3 point cable sling suspension system with bull ring is included. Each of the 3 suspension members is independent of the others. One member includes a turnbuckle for quick and easy one time adjustment of mounting angle. Adjustment can be made while the magnet is hanging in position. There’s no measuring, shortening, lengthening or cutting of cable.

No maintenance
Silent operation

Stationary models have no moving parts. All steel sides plus the stainless steel bottom are welded together with continuous welds. There’s nothing to lubricate, tighten or replace.

Mounting choice

Stationary models mount over a head pulley or anywhere over the straight section of a conveyor. A head pulley installation costs less. (see discussion under Self Cleaners)

Self Cleaner Electro Overhead Magnet

Cleans itself automatically
Cleans itself completely
Runs quietly
Extra thick belt 3 ply
Cleats are vulcanised
Discharges clear of conveyor

A thick heavy duty rubber belt moves continuously and quietly around the magnet. This belt intercepts attracted metal and sweeps it off the magnet. There’s never a chance for excessive build up of iron – too much iron on the face of a magnet shorting out magnetism. Rubber cleats vulcanised to the belt ensure complete sweeping of all metal. Vulcanising prevents attracted metal from lodging under cleats as is the case with other designs with cleats bolted to a belt. Permanent magnet extensions are available to extend trajectory of discharged metal.

Four pulleys conserve space
Pulleys are crowned
Self aligning bearings
Interchangeable bearings
Greaseable bearings

A 4 pulley design is used on nearly all models. This allows a saving in space and weight compared to a 2 pulley design. All pulleys are crowned for reliable belt tracking. Bearings are of course greaseable and self aligning. Besides that, all bearings are interchangeable.

Continuous duty
Obsoletes oil tank designs
No plumbing

All models are built for continuous magnet energising and for continuous belt cleaning. Energising is by direct current. Steinert can supply rectifiers. Conventional designs need external control of oil expansion and moisture. There are no external oil tanks or plumbing on the Steiner design. They aren’t needed. Steel lugs are provided for suspended mounting.

Wound with anodised aluminum
Insulation better than class H
Convenient terminal box

All models are built with aluminum strip (not wire) and not plain aluminum but anodised aluminum. Insulation quality in the coil far exceeds class H. The coil is virtually burnout proof. Coil leads are connected to leak proof terminals inside an easy to get at gasketed terminal box.
