Product Details
Pneumatically conveyed lines move product too fast and under too much pressure for a standard open-flow grill. The PML Pneumatic Chute Magnet is purpose-built for this environment — a fully welded stainless steel housing that traps iron particles from dry, granular or free-flowing material inside pressurised pneumatic lines running up to 1 bar and air speeds up to 25 m/s.
Built for Pressurised Lines
The special housing design lets product pass through in either direction, so it fits naturally into existing pneumatic conveying runs without disrupting flow. It's especially suited to food and pharmaceutical lines — flour, sugar, starch, pharmaceutical powders and granules — where a food-grade finish and gasket are standard, and various flange options let it match your existing line hardware.
Standard Range — 12,000 Gauss
| Model No. | Inlet A (mm) | B / C (mm) | Height (mm) | Rods | Rated Pressure |
| P001 | 75 | 180 | 460 | 4 | 1 bar |
| P002 | 100 | 180 | 460 | 4 | 1 bar |
| P003 | 125 | 180 | 460 | 4 | 1 bar |
The silicone seal system on the housing is rated for leak resistance up to 2 bar, giving margin above the standard 1 bar operating rating.
Key Advantages
- Rated for Pressurised Lines
Built and sealed for pneumatic conveying up to 1 bar, with a 2 bar leak-resistant silicone seal for margin.
- No Line Pressure Drop
The housing geometry maintains conveying performance instead of restricting flow.
- Tool-Free Guard Removal
Quick access for inspection and cleaning without needing tools.
- Vertical or Horizontal Installation
Fits into your existing pneumatic line layout either way.
Where It's Used
Plastic, food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries running pneumatic conveying lines — particularly flour, sugar, starch and pharmaceutical powder/granule handling where food-grade finish and gasket standards matter.
Frequently Asked Questions
What line pressure can it handle?
Standard units are rated to 1 bar operating pressure, with a silicone seal system that's leak-resistant up to 2 bar.
Will it slow down my conveying line?
No — the housing is designed to avoid line pressure drop, so conveying performance is maintained.
Is it suitable for food-grade lines?
Yes — food-grade finish and gaskets are standard, making it suitable for flour, sugar, starch and similar food and pharmaceutical products.
