Corrosive Resistant Magnetic Liquid Trap

The CR-MLT is made from a special alloy material that holds up against acidic, corrosive materials, resulting in a drastically extended lifespan compared to the traditional liquid trap. It resists corrosion and pitting that would otherwise cause severe damage to other traps over time. The CR-MLT is able to handle even the most difficult to flow products, utilizing a 2” diameter magnetic load to achieve complete reach out. It has a built in manual self-cleaning ability, meaning that once the flow of product has been turned off, the operator simply needs to remove the lid and use the metal detectable wiper to clean off the center magnet cartridge.

Longer Life and Improved Performance with the Bunting Corrosive Resistant Magnetic Liquid Trap

New CR-MLT designed to resist corrosion, allowing for superior processing of acidic liquids

Magnetic liquid traps are an essential piece of equipment for ensuring metal contaminants are separated from the liquid product flowing through the greater system. Under normal circumstances, the 316L stainless steel that standard liquid traps are made of is highly resistant to corrosion. However, when put under extreme stress from handling acidic foods and enduring rigorous cleaning procedures, intergranular cracks can occur in the material. This compromises the integrity of the protective oxide film and results in pitting and corrosion.

Many industries are tasked with handling highly acidic or corrosive materials as part of their standard product flow, and it is a challenge to find metal separation products that can maintain a high level of performance while also being able to resist corrosion. Bunting has responded to the needs of customers working in the food, chemical, and oil industries and developed a new corrosive resistant magnetic liquid trap in order to provide a solution to this problem.

Bunting engineers developed the CR-MLT in response to the highly acidic materials that many of our customers are currently working with. These materials range from acidic foods and drinks, such as orange juice and tomato sauce in the food industry, to heavy-duty industrial cleaners used in chemical wash downs performed by customers in the food, chemical and oil industries.

These materials range from acidic foods and drinks, such as orange juice and tomato sauce in the food industry, to heavy-duty industrial cleaners used in chemical wash downs performed by customers in the food, chemical and oil industries.

The CR-MLT is manufactured from a single piece of corrosive-resistant material comprised of Bunting’s newly developed superalloy. This material has a much higher resistance to chloride pitting, crevice cracking, and stress cracking corrosion. It resists not only acid corrosion from food, but also endures the strong chemicals and rigorous water pressure blasts associated with washdown cleaning procedures in food processing environments.

Prior to the development of the CR-MLT, customers struggled with issues such as chloride pitting, crevice formation, and stress cracking corrosion due to their highly acidic product flow eating away at the traditional liquid traps they had installed. The CR-MLT offers high separation capabilities combined with exceptional resistance to corrosion, providing a solution for customers in a wide range of industries who are handling corrosive and acidic materials.

A Bunting Innovation for High-Corrosion Environments

In addition to the corrosion-resistant material, the CR-MLT offers several other desirable features. It has a high-pressure rating, which allows it to handle a higher volume of product at a faster rate. The 2″ diameter magnetic load is thicker than the normal 1″ diameter cartridge, making it last longer in the field. The design of this unit also allows for larger suspended solids to pass through the body. Cleaning the CR-MLT is simple. The operator pulls out the cartridge, which is wiped clean by an internal gasket. Because it is made from a single piece of stainless steel, there are no welds or crevices to corrode.

The CR-MLT utilizes 45SH magnets (temperature-compensated, high-intensity, neodymium magnets) for superior capture of metal contaminants. It meets food industry standards with its weld finishes, metal-detectable gaskets, and 10,000 gauss rating. Materials that were once challenging to process, such as tomato paste, ketchup and vinegar-based products, as well as high-temperature chloride-based cleaning agents, can now be handled with ease.
