  • Mining and metallurgy: The role of filters in mining and quarrying
    In the first of a series of articles, Ken Sutherland looks at one of the minor end-use sectors, which, although important industries in their own right, actually have relatively small shares of the filtration and other separation equipment market. In the present case, the review is of the production of minerals, other than fuel materials, and the making of metals, both ferrous and non-ferrous.
  • Fuel filtration: Protecting the diesel engine
    Tightened emission requirements on diesel engines mean the use of fuel injection equipment that is vulnerable to contaminants. Mandatory fuel sulphur reduction and biodiesel inclusion induce chronic field failures of fuel-water separators that are not yet modelled in industry test standards. This article, by Christine Stanfel of Ahlstrom, considers the hurdles to diesel engine protection in today’s fuels.

Schroeder Industries offering magnetic suction separators

26 February 2010

The magnetic suction separators from Schroeder Industries are available both in-line and tank-mounted for use on the inlet of a suction line submerged in a reservoir

Schroeder’s magnetic suction separators are available enclosed in several different housings that can be used either in-line or reservoir-mounted. The separators protect the system components using magnets to capture harmful metal fragments before they have the chance to jam a gear tooth or impeller blade downstream. The powerful magnets will also attract nuts, bolts, and other assorted ferrous intruders that could potentially cause catastrophic problems downstream.
