CARPCO Magnetic Drum Separator, Model WD20111510298

The CARPCO Magnetic Drum Separator, Model WD20111510298, is designed for separating particles into magnetic or non-magnetic fractions. It is particularly effective for wet magnetic separation of materials like magnetite, pyrite, and titanic iron, typically with a size no more than 3mm. Solids are fed to a launder, allowing a permanent magnet inside a rotating drum to pick up magnetic particles. This type of separator is widely used in mineral processing, including iron ore separation, and for removing iron content from coal, non-metal materials, and building materials. Magnetic drum separators can be categorized by magnetic field strength (low, medium, and high intensity), separation medium (dry or wet), and magnetic source (permanent or electromagnetic). The CARPCO unit likely employs permanent magnets and is suitable for laboratory or pilot-plant scale operations.
