摘要 |
Magnetic separator apparatus is disclosed including means for establishing a magnetic field in a predetermined zone, a separating chamber provided with an inlet and an outlet for fluid, fluid-permeable and magnetisable packing material disposed within the separating chamber, a compensating element incorporating ferromagnetic material coupled to said separating chamber, and means for moving the separating chamber and the associated compensating element between a first position in which the separating chamber is within the predetermined zone and a second position in which the separating chamber is outside the predetermined zone. The magnetic field interacting with the compensating element generates balancing forces reducing the force required to move the separating chamber between its two aforesaid positions.
