Magnetic technology – how it works
DESCRIPTION
The patented magnetic filter element attracts ferrous wear particles down to 4 microns and below with up to 95+% efficiency. The magnetic filter element attracts both ferrous and non-ferrous particles.
The radial magnetic field design offers incredible holding strength and a high dirt holding capacity.
These systems are employed in various housings designed with calculated dwell times for optimal filtration.
PROMOTING SUSTAINABILITY
These products are reusable for 18+ years, and require minimal consumables. On the other hand, conventional filters require frequent, costly changeouts, and disposal.
As the alternative to conventional filtration, each filter is cleanable, requires minimal consumables, and operates without the use of utilities. Reusable components reduce the environmental impacts and costs associated with the disposal and replacement of conventional filters, fluids, and other equipment components.

CAPTURES NON-FERROUS CONTAMINATION
Non-ferrous particles are magnetically captured due to cross-contamination with ferrous particles. While ferrous compounds usually dominate the percentage of captured material, in some cases over 70% has been non-ferrous. All particulate contamination becomes electrostatically charged due to physical interactions with other particles and surfaces. Electrostatic charge is generated whenever there is friction between two bodies moving relative to one another. Charge generation occurs on the molecular level at the interface of any two unlike materials, so a static charge will be generated in any moving fluid, with positive or negative charges moving from the fluid onto the bounding surface.
PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE
OEI Magnetic Filter Elements are effective predictive maintenance tools when used for condition monitoring. When removed for inspection, magnetic filter elements will have varying quantities of contamination. Abnormally high quantities of contamination indicate component failure. The composition of contamination will identify which components are stressed, worn, or failing. Visual analysis of the quantities of wear contamination collected on magnetic filter plugs can determine component failure. Analysis of wear particle compositions and sizes will determine early component wear.
