User manual for SECC Neoflux® auto-cleaning Cleanflow magnet 

14 

 

Vibrations 

The magnet is to be protected against strong external vibrations, because the magnet might 

lose 

magnetic force permanently

 and or the brittle ceramic magnet material might break. 

The only vibrations caused by the clean flow magnet SECC are forced by the moving magnet bars. The 
product channel in which it is placed has to be stiff enough to damp out the (relatively small) forces of 
the moving magnet bars. 

 

Cleaning 

Minimum 2x per day

 (more often when lots of Fe is in the product flow en less when proven possible) 

cleaning (Fe disposal) of the device is advised for an optimal magnetic separation, and to prevent for Fe 
accumulation on the magnet bar tubes and the problems that can be caused by that. Clean magnets 
have the best Fe separation result. So, make sure to clean a little more than assumed necessary, to 
achieve a satisfactory result of the clean flow magnet device. 

For dirt cleaning: see chapter 

Maintenance

 

 

Deliverable specials 

Higher product temperatures 

For high product temperatures there is the possibility of using other magnet material than the standard 
Neoflux

® 

magnets. See product specs in the appendices. 

 
Abrasive products 

If you have an abrasive product, we can supply the magnet bars and /or inside housing with a protective 
coating, like for instance a tungsten carbide coating.  

 
Use in FOOD product flows 

The SECC can be adapted so that it can be used in your specific 

food stream. It’s standard execution 

already has little gaps or dead spots in the, already complete SS AISI304, product channel. The product 
channel (or even complete h magnet bars) can be delivered in gap-free SS AISI304 or AISI316, 
or in combination with other 

– for instance prescribed or delivered by customer – food improved 

materials. Surface treatments like electrolytic polishing, staining, etc. are naturally possible. 

 

ATEX 

IF components are built on or built in to the Atex approved magnetic device, by the customer or third 
party, this can void Atex suitability. 

It is the responsibility of the customer to take the right precautions for use in an Atex zone, like regular 
cleaning to prevent for thick accumulating dust layers, and suitable grounding measures.  

Read this manual thoroughly for all ATEX measures. 

If  you desire an ATEX declaration with the device, it has to be especially ordered. An additional 
cost will be charged!
