Keeping sodium bicarbonate free of metal fragments
Bunting Magnetics Europe, Berkhamsted, UK, has won a contract from Pakistan to supply metal detectors to identify and remove metal contaminants from refined sodium bicarbonate. For this application the company recommended its Quicktron Model 05A metal separator. This high sensitivity device is designed for free-flowing, gravity fed bulk materials, including fine powders such as sodium bicarbonate, and has the ability to detect and remove a wide range of metals including ferrous, stainless steel, aluminium, copper and brass.
In operation, the sodium bicarbonate falls down an inlet pipe into the electromagnetic field of the metal separator search coil. Any metal alters the high frequency magnetic field generated by the search coil. A signal then is sent to the double actuating air cylinder of the reject assembly underneath the unit. The reject time is adjustable to suit each specific application.
David Hills, Bunting Europe’s head of sales said: “Being able to offer global support and assistance to companies in different parts of the world differentiates us from other suppliers. This application was particularly challenging due to the fine nature of the product. It was vital to remove the metal contamination without losing high amounts of clean product and this is the reason for selecting the Quicktron metal separator.” www.magneticseparation.co
