Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separators (WHIMS)
Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separators (WHIMS)
The Eriez Vertical WHIMS is engineered to concentrate weakly magnetic minerals such as hematite, pyrrhotite, limonite, siderite, chromite, ilmenite, manganese, and rare earth elements. It’s also highly effective for purifying industrial minerals like kaolin, quartz, sand, feldspar, and lithium. Its unique jigging and washing mechanism minimize entrapment and matrix clogging, delivering stable and dependable performance with following features:
- Simple Slurry Level Control – Critical for stable pulsation.
- High-Efficiency Copper Hollow Coil – Best for magnetic power generation and direct cooling.
- Low Voltage (< 80 VDC) – Safer for operation and maintenance.
- Compact Coil Design – Less magnetic flux leakage, more efficient performance.
- Dual Jigging Mechanism (Patented) – Boosts recovery and concentrate grade.
- Optional Single Jigging – Available upon request.
- Air-Assisted Water Flushing (Patented) – Reduces water use by ~20%, prevents clogging, lowers concentrate moisture.
- Ring Step Motion Eliminated – Enhances WHIMS reliability.
- Optimized Yoke Design (Patented) – Prevents early concentrate drop-off, improves recovery.
- Advanced Matrix Structure – Ensures uniform magnetic distribution, increases capacity and separation efficiency.
