Product Details
Suspended above an open conveyor, the PML Single Pole Suspended Magnet arrests ferrous objects and fines before they reach a crusher, mill or bagging line — grains and feed stuffs, dry chemicals, salt, ceramics, cement clinker, and coal on power-plant conveyors are all common applications. A single magnetic pole faces down into the material stream, holding tramp iron against the field until the unit is cleaned.
How It's Positioned
The unit is suspended on chains or a frame directly above the conveyor belt, spanning the belt width. As material passes underneath, the magnetic field reaches down into the burden depth and pulls ferrous contamination up against the underside of the housing, where it stays until manually cleared — a straightforward, no-power solution for lines that don't need continuous self-cleaning.

| SPSM-1012 | 1000×1200×154 | 1000 | 1.5 |
Width is selected to match your conveyor belt width, and length/speed rating scales with how fast material moves beneath it — faster belts need a longer magnet footprint to give particles enough dwell time in the field.
Construction
Key Advantages
- No Power Required
A purely passive permanent-magnet system suspended above the line.
- Matched to Your Conveyor
Seven standard widths from 500mm to 1000mm, sized to common belt widths.
- Simple Installation
Suspended on chains or a support frame — no belt splicing or drive components involved.
- Protects Downstream Equipment
Stops tramp iron before it reaches crushers, mills or bagging lines.
Single Pole vs. Two Pole — Which Do I Need?
Single pole suspended magnets use one magnetic face and are a cost-effective choice for lighter contamination loads. For heavier or more frequent tramp iron, our Two Pole Suspended Permanent Magnet offers a stronger, dual-pole field.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is it cleaned?
Accumulated tramp iron is removed manually at scheduled intervals — how often depends on your contamination load and line speed.
Does it need any power supply?
No — it's a fully passive permanent-magnet unit, suspended above the belt with no electrical connection required.
Can it be sized to a non-standard belt width?
Yes — the standard range covers 500–1000mm belts; custom widths are available on request.
