Ferromagnetism
The working principle of the device rests on (Ferro)magnetism.
Ferromagnetism is the basic mechanism by which certain materials such as iron cobalt and nickel can
get magnetized when exposed to an externally applied magnetic field. Materials that remain magnetized
after the external magnetic field is removed, are called permanent magnets. Most magnetic materials
lose their magnetism after the external magnetic field is removed. Most alloys of iron, cobalt and nickel
are magnetic. However, some stainless steel alloys like AISI304 or AISI316 are only slightly magnetic.
Because in most cases it will be Fe parts that will be Ferro-magnetically influenced, we will use the term
‘Fe’ in this user manual when we mean ferromagnetic material
