    WHIMS Production Separators

Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator

The Reading WHIMS set the industry benchmark for wet magnetic separation of fine minerals. They afford the most efficient separation of minerals in slurry form, when drying of the material is undesirable or uneconomical.

Features

• Smaller, lighter and more compact than any other WHIMS of comparable capacity

• Ideal for floating concentration plants, lighter machine means less buoyancy required

• 16 pole units are transportable fully assembled to any location – excluding distributor
   and product collection launders

• Extensive use of 316 stainless steel to minimise maintenance costs

• Extensive use of polyurethane lining and componentry to reduce wear

• Latest technology control panel incorporating DC rectifier and motor starters etc

• Fully variable electro-magnetic field intensity (0–1.4 Tesla) giving the client the
   ability to adjust intensity for optimum separation.

• Two segment product discharge (mags and non-mags) minimises plant pipework

• Volume of wash water to separator can be varied and controlled to optimise process performance

• Option of either water cooled or air cooled heat exchanger

• All models have comparable performance for pilot study evaluations
