Eriez to Present Magnetic Separator Systems

Eriez Magnetics will showcase its latest separator systems for ferrous and non-ferrous metal recovery at the REW event in Turkey on 8-11 June 2011. The company recently designed and developed a range of separators utilising magnetic principles. At REW, it will show its new RevX-ETM eddy-current separator, which incorporates an eccentric magnetic rotor to allow a single point of separation - different to the usual concentric design.

The RevX-ETM is suitable for purifying cullet and plastics as well as recovered valuable metal from secondary metals and incineration ash - especially the separation of small particles. The new Eccentric ECS will be fully operational at the show and available for testing. Also on display at REW will be a self-cleaning version of the Model TP suspended permanent magnet. The Eriez TP magnet is robust, requires minimal maintenance, is simple to install and operate and is very versatile, according to the company.

The twin-pole magnet is designed for the removal of long, thin, sharp metals such as nails, making it suitable for recycled wood applications. Along with magnetic separators and metal sorting equipment, Eriez also designs and manufactures metal detectors to detect ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The E-Z Tec9100 combines balanced coil technology with a pneumatic reject system, ensuring the detection and rejection of sub-millimetre metal contaminants from free-falling material.

It is particularly suitable for recycled plastics and rubbers. On Stand A-11, the E-Z Tec 9100 will be incorporated into a metal separation unit consisting of an Eriez vibratory feeder that feeds material into a Prograde magnetic grate to remove fine ferrous particles and then into the E-Z Tec 9100 to reject the remainder of the metal contaminants.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa...

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin...

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
