Circular Heavy Duty Magnets

Circular lifting magnets can be used to handle bulk metal scrap, pig iron, swarf and other material of irregular shape and size. We ensure adhering to the outlined specifications to promote optimum performance and exceptional lifting capacity.

TERMINAL BOX is designed to ensure protection whilst in operation and are of double entry type enabling the leads from the coils to be sealed in a separate cavity. The outside cable is brought through a gland into this second compartment ensuring no possibility of moisture entering the windings.

BUMPING PLATES are of high grade Manganese Steel Casting as per IS – 276 with heavy ribs for added strength. These are clamped in position by the center and outer poles offering complete protection to the coil. The magnets are suspended with three legged STRING CHAINS made of best quality forged steel terminating in a forged ring. A two core cable is provided for connection with the supply and suitable Insulated plug and socket ensure easy operation.

The standard three-fall chain suspension with common suspension ring has been dimensioned to suit all normal duty loads. To handle extreme weights, special chains are available at extra cost. Two lugs for guide ropes are fitted as standard. For attachment of the supply cable, magnets are fitted with one solidly constructed cable clamp which effectively prevents cables from being pulled out. For connection of the supply cable the standard model magnet is fitted with metal-clad plug & socket two pole + earth, additionally protected by a cast-steel cover.

DUTY FACTOR : The permissible relative duty factor is 75%/10 mins. or 60%/10 mins. depending on magnet construction and application. Magnets for extra heavy duty or handling of hot materials are available on request.
