Efficient Magnetic filters now offer a huge advantage for paper and pulp processing, in increasing the performance of existing Filtration units and Filter systems / fluid conditioning, and play the major part in improving/reducing system running cost and increasing availability/productivity, by effectively and efficiently removing Ferrous contamination, Iron oxide, & magnetite from critical systems, down to sub micron levels, e.g.

Major US paper production plant

Protecting critical drive system components,

After a top bearings in large gearboxes had again failed catastrophically, After trying numerous filtration products, and changing maintenance schedules & techniques, with little or no positive impact on the issues, this  large US paper plant called on Magnom to find a way to keep the plant running. The ongoing fault had been caused by oil pumps repeatedly failing due to metal contamination build up, which had in turn overheated the main  bearings, causing them to wear heavily, and gain over  ¼” in endplay.

The plant had been uncomfortably close to a catastrophic failure on several occasions.

Engineers installed Magnom technology upstream of conventional coalescing filters.

Success!

After a week using the Magnom products, the fluid was completely clean of the damaging contamination – this resulted in a resolution to these historic failures, and  Magnom solutions being specified throughout the plant to filter all lubrication and hydraulic systems, as well as their diesel and water lines.
