The Greenwood Magnetic Hump, is an in-line magnet for extracting ferrous metals from pneumatic conveyor systems. The dust-proof galvanised steel hump contains two powerful magnetic plates positioned at right angles to each other.

Materials passing through the conveyor system are evenly distributed through the hump and across the magnets with little turbulence and no blockage. Any unwanted ferrous metals within these materials will be automatically extracted. The hump is fitted with an inspection window to provide visual evidence of the magnets functional efficiency.

We also offer the Rare Earth Magnetic Hump in an easy clean version. As each magnetic plate is opened for cleaning, the easy clean stainless steel “cover” plate splits away from the main rear magnetic plate. The easy clean cover plate has a locking mechanism so that it can only open to a certain extent. As the main magnetic plate is pulled away, the ferrous metal contamination drops automatically away from the plate outside the process. This makes cleaning far easier for the operative, less dangerous, and saves downtime. Manufactured up to a magnetic strength of 7000 gauss on the contact surface.
