Magnetic filter FM
The FM type magnetic filter (trap magnet) is designed for semi-automatic removal of smallest iron contaminants from liquid and paste products in pressure pipelines. The FM filter protects pumps, centrifuges and dosing machines against damage caused by metal contamination, prevents production downtime and ensures product quality. The magnetic filter also protects the consumer against eating dangerous metal pieces and is a perfect complement to a metal detector.
The FM trap magnet is reliable, very robust and designed for continuous operation. The trap magnet consists of neodymium magnetic bars with very high magnetic field intensity and is characterized by the highest metal separation efficiency. The magnetic trap enables the separation of filings, iron oxides and even slightly magnetised stainless steel. The powerful neodymium permanent magnets used in magnetic bars have high coercivity, which makes them difficult to demagnetize. Therefore, the trap magnet has a long service life.

Trap magnet during operation
Versions of magnetic filters
- FM type magnetic filter
Cleaned manually or semi-automatically. - FM-HT type magnetic filter
Equipped with high-temperature magnets for products with temperatures up to 300°C. - FM-W type magnetic filter
Equipped with a double-walled body for connecting hot water to prevent hardening of products such as fats, chocolate, confectionery masses, etc. - FM-W-I type magnetic filter
Equipped with a double-walled body and an insulating jacket preventing heat loss of the transported product.
Working principle of a trap magnet
The contaminated product passes through the filter inlet and flows through magnetic rods placed in its path. Iron contaminants are attracted by the magnets and collected under the cover tubes, while the purified product leaves the filter through the outlet. Depending on the version, the filter is cleaned manually by sliding captured iron particles from the surface of the cover tubes or semi-automatically. In the semi-automatic version, it is possible to remove the magnetic cores from the cover tubes and the captured iron particles fall off automatically as a result of the removal of the magnetic field.
Why choose our magnetic filters?
Magnetic filters must meet the highest quality standards required for food and chemical installations. The quality of Magnetix products is confirmed by the certificate of the National Institute of Public Health (PZH).
Magnetic filters are manufactured using N54 class neodymium magnets with an innovative nano coating that protects them from damage and corrosion. Filter bodies are made of thick-walled stainless or acid-resistant steel using laser welding technology, ensuring high-quality welds without overheating the material.
In addition to the standard catalog offer, we also produce trap magnets to individual orders, according to the detailed guidelines of the Customer and local conditions.
Magnetic filter price and delivery time
The price of a trap magnet depends primarily on the number of magnetic bars used in it and the magnetic material from which they are made. Magnetic bars made of high-temperature neodymium magnets are expensive. Samarium-cobalt magnets are even more expensive due to the valuable cobalt. Mounting accessories are priced individually based on an analysis of the specific location of the device.
The delivery time of the device on order is usually 4 - 6 weeks. We also carry out orders with an accelerated deadline. Magnetix also has a large warehouse of separators available immediately.
