ACCSX-MAGSEP™ – Magnetic Separators

FiltraCore Asia’s ACCSX-MAGSEP™ Magnetic Separators are engineered to protect critical process equipment, reduce unplanned maintenance, and lower total cost of ownership across both liquid and dry bulk processing systems. Installed upstream of pumps, valves, heat exchangers, filtration stages, or downstream conveying equipment, they mitigate ferrous contamination that leads to premature wear, downtime, and avoidable MRO expenditure. For gas and compressed air systems, dedicated configurations such as ACCSX-MAGSEP-GAS™ – Gas Stream Magnetic Separator are available to capture ferrous contaminants including black powder and protect compressors, valves, and instrumentation.

All ACCSX-MAGSEP™ units feature an easy clean, quick release extractor design, allowing the magnetic assembly to be withdrawn efficiently for inspection and cleaning. This supports predictable maintenance with minimal labour and reduced process disruption. For powder handling applications, rotary type configurations are available to reduce material build up and support continuous operation in systems where caking or agglomeration may occur. Fully automated self cleaning variants are available for selected applications.

The ACCSX-MAGSEP™ range covers four industry aligned geometries: inline (T type) for continuous axial flow (ACCSX-MAGSEP-IL™), chamber type for increased residence time (ACCSX-MAGSEP-CH™), drawer type for gravity fed or free flowing streams (ACCSX-MAGSEP-DRW™), and rotary type for powders with flow instability or build up tendency (ACCSX-MAGSEP-ROTA™). Gas stream configurations (ACCSX-MAGSEP-GAS™) are available for installation in gas and compressed air lines where flow regime, pressure, and particle characteristics differ from liquid and bulk solid systems. Units are available in industrial and sanitary grade configurations, with construction and finishing tailored to process requirements.

For pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and high purity applications, sanitary variants can be engineered with true orbital welding, precision TIG welding, and controlled internal surface finishes down to <0.4 µm Ra, reducing potential microorganism dwell zones and supporting cleanability. Material selection, weld integrity, and surface treatment are specified based on application requirements and can be aligned with relevant process standards where required.

All systems utilise rare earth neodymium magnetic assemblies (NdFeB), typically N35, N42, or N52 grades, with stainless steel construction options selected to suit process, corrosion, and environmental conditions.
