Magnetic Trap Strainers The Sani-Matic Angle-Line Magnetic Trap Strainer doubles as a strainer and magnetic trap to ensure product integrity and equipment protection against metal particles, such as iron, 304 stainless steel, and shed metal-detect gasket particulates, while also straining process particles such as seeds, pulp, and more. The magnetic trap's location within the strainer body eliminates the need for a second process line cut. Current Standard Flow, Angle-Line Strainer bodies can easily become a Magnetic Trap Strainer by adding a Magnetic Trap Element Frame and accompanying angle-line element retaining parts.

QUICK TIPS Oh my Gauss! How strong is that magnet? Magnet flux density, or intensity, is measured in Gauss. It can be measured via Pull Tests and Gauss Meters. A pull test shows the pull force of a magnet by the amount of force required to break free of the magnet. Strong but not unbreakable. While the magnets maintain a strong hold, they are not unbreakable. If not handled with care, the strainer element frame’s magnets can shatter and lose efficacy. Are there safety considerations? The magnets have a powerful pull. Working with metal tools next to the magnetic trap may pinch hands, and the magnets may be harmful to ID wearers and people with pacemakers.
GOOD TO KNOW • Magnetic Rating Range: 9,500 - 11,500 Gauss • Maximum Temperature: 220 °F • Finish: 32 μin Ra • Standard Flow Only • 4" Body Size Only • Is not 3-A Certified • Magnet: Neodymium rare-earth element • Gauss certificate is provided
• Magnetic Trap captures magnetic items; the Element captures the other product debris (pulp, seeds, etc.) • Adding magnetic trap capabilities adds minimal pressure drop (approx. 5% increase) • Sani-Matic provides a recertification service where old units can be sent in for testing to ensure magnetic strength is sufficient, or if replacement is needed
