Automatic Easy to Clean Grates in Housing

Grate in Housing cleaning is reduced to a push of a button (or even automated with the addition of a timed control) with Eriez Automatic Easy to Clean Tramp Iron Grate in Housings. The Automatic ETC incorporate the same Erium™ Ceramic or Rare Earth magnet material to remove ferrous contamination from free flowing products as it cascades through multiple grate rows combined with automatic grate cycling components.

With Eriez' single-skinned tube design, the iron is removed with a stainless steel split ring sandwiched between two floating wipers. As the grate banks cycle tramp iron is stripped from the tubes outside the product zone. The tramp metal is then discharged through a small chute at the front of the housing. The traditional magnet cleaning cycle is reduced to the push of a button or completely automated.

Eriez manufactures standard grate housings but will custom design anything to fit your installation requirements. Typical units include a rectangular housing that holds multiple rows of powerful tube magnets that attract and hold fine ferrous contamination as material cascades around the magnets. Optional features include adapters to transition your product flow into the grate housing, additional magnet rows depending upon specific separation efficiency requirements, and special controls to automate the cleaning cycle.
