Removing the barriers to fluid cleanliness

Magnetic Flow Filters are a revolutionary product in advanced fluid conditioning. Using magnetic field effect technology, they reduce operating costs and simultaneously benefit the environment.

Through its unique patented design, it removes Ferrous contaminant particles of less than one micron from a variety of fluids. This includes the smallest and most abrasive particles that are responsible for the destructive chain reaction of wear in many processes.

Unlike conventional filters it produces no pressure drop in the fluid even when the filter element is full. It has no moving parts and is available in many different sizes and designs. It also functions in a diverse range of fluid pressures, temperatures and flow rates.

The filter is easily installed in a wide variety of applications - either as part of a new system design or can be easily intergrated into existing systems.

The Process

The Magnetic Flow Filter has wide flow channels that allow the process fluid to pass with zero pressure drop. As the fluid flows through the filters field effect areas, ferrous contaminants are drawn into special collection zones. These zones hold significantly more contaminant than a conventional filter - without obstructing fluid flow or risking “wash-off”. Therefore, it can operate for very long periods without service and - when contaminants need to be removed - is easily cleaned and re-used.
