Introduction
New improvements in magnetic materials and technology are applied in
Eriez Model HMDA Wet Drum Separators. Permanent rather than electro
magnets are used; new magnetic circuits have been designed to concentrate
the separating force within the actual depth of the slurry flow; improved tanks
take maximum advantage of better separating efficiency.
Eriez Wet Drum Separators are designed and ruggedly built for long, hard
service – but certain installation, operating and maintenance procedures
must be observed. A careful reading of these instructions will assure the
separators’ most efficient and dependable performance.
CAUTION ‑ STRONG MAGNET
This equipment includes one or more extremely powerful magnetic circuits.
The magnetic field may be much stronger than the Earth’s background field
at a distance several times the largest dimension of the equipment.
• If you use a heart pacemaker or similar device you must never approach
the equipment because your device may malfunction in the magnetic
field, with consequences up to and including death.
• To avoid serious pinch‑type injuries caused by objects attracted to the
magnet, keep all steel and iron objects well away from the equipment.
Do not allow hands, fingers, and other body parts to be caught between
the equipment and nearby steel or iron objects.
• Keep credit cards, computer disks, and other magnetic storage devices
away from the equipment because magnetically stored information may
be corrupted by the magnetic field.
• Keep electronic devices, such as computers or monitors, away from
the equipment because exposure to the magnetic field may result in
malfunction or permanent damage to such devices.
Contact Eriez if you have a question regarding these precautions.
CAUTION
Safety labels must be affixed to this product. Should
the safety label(s) be damaged, dislodged or removed,
contact Eriez for replacement.
