MAGNETIC FILTER DEVICE

摘要

In a magnetic filter apparatus in which permanent magnets are arranged to oppose each other with a container therebetween so as to generate a magnetic line of force in a direction substantially orthogonal to the moving direction of the fluid in the interior of the container, while regulating a filter passage time of the fluid in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 seconds, the permanent magnets are arranged so that the distance L (mm) between the permanent magnets in relation to the residual magnetic flux density B (T) of the permanent magnets satisfies the relationship:In this manner, the highest possible performance can be obtained from the filter using general-purpose permanent magnets such as ferrite or neodymium magnets, thereby achieving size reduction of the apparatus at low equipment cost.
