(See Fig. 6)
CAUTION: Rare earth magnets in the magnetic
rotor assembly are extremely powerful. Use of iron
or steel tools near the magnet could cause injury
to personnel or damage to the separator.
Magnetic rotor assembly
Contains highest grade of permanent rare earth
magnetic material.
Stainless steel cover
Heavy-duty inner cover protects the magnetic
rotor assembly from damage.
Fiberglass wear shell
Wear-resistant ceramic tiles are bonded to
the fiberglass shell. Wear shell supports the
conveyor belt.
Motor
Drive motor is large and very powerful to rotate
the magnetic rotor at high speed. Since the
motor is set at the optimum speed, it does not
require adjustment.
The motor shaft has a multiple belt sheave
which drives the magnetic rotor pulley.

The motor controls are described in Fig. 7.
When unit is shut off, a time delay switch allows the
conveyor belt to continue to run after the magnetic rotor has
been turned off. This function helps protect the shell and
belt from being damaged and assures that all materials will
have been removed from the belt.
E LECTRIC C ONNECTIONS
All wiring must conform to prevailing local and national
electrical codes. See wiring diagram provided in control
panel for your power requirements. Electrical power source
supplying the eddy current separator must have a disconnect
with lock out provisions.
IMPORTANT: Magnetic rotor must turn in the same
direction as the conveyor belt (Fig. 8).
Figure 8 - Turning Direction of Rotor and Belt.
Figure 7 - Control Panel (Optional).
To run the conveyor only, turn switch to left and
push the start button.
To run the conveyor and the magnetic rotor, turn
to right and push the start button.
(The magnetic rotor cannot be run without the
conveyor belt running.)
