CR-MLT Magnetic Separation Protects Your Food Processing

What do ketchup, barbecue sauce, balsamic vinaigrette, lemonade, and margaritas all have in common? Aside from being things we love to see at our summer barbecues, these items are also all highly acidic. While acidic liquids such as pureed tomatoes, vinegar, lemon juice, and tequila are responsible for some of our favorite flavors, they are also responsible for heavy damages caused to food processing equipment as a result of their acidic, corrosive nature. To ensure your favorite condiments and beverages are free of metal contamination, Bunting has designed the Corrosive-Resistant Magnetic Liquid Trap, or CR-MLT, to deliver superior magnetic separation while maintaining an exceptionally high resistance to corrosion.

Neodymium Magnets for Powerful Magnetic Separation

The design of the CR-MLT starts with Bunting’s powerful neodymium magnets. These magnets are high energy and designed to tolerate high temperatures. They are capable of capturing even the smallest, most difficult sources of metal contamination, including very fine ferrous particles and work-hardened 300 stainless steel fragments. Building off of our powerful magnets, our next step was to design the CR-MLT to resist the corrosion caused by acidic liquid products.

Corrosion Resistant Design for Handling Acidic Liquids

The CR-MLT is designed with a special alloy material that withstands the challenges brought on by acidic, corrosive liquids. This material resists corrosion, pitting, and other damage associated with acidic liquids, providing customers with a magnetic liquid trap that is stronger, safer, and lasts much longer compared to standard liquid traps. The CR-MLT also boasts desirable features such as a high-pressure rating that allows it to handle a greater volume of material at a faster rate. Additionally, it is designed with a 2” diameter magnetic load, allowing it to last longer when it is in the field. For handling a wide variety of corrosive liquid materials, the CR-MLT is also designed in a way that allows larger suspended solids to easily pass through, making it ideal for products such as fruit cups and tomato sauces.

Bunting’s CR-MLT lets food processors keep your favorite tangy, zingy, and zesty condiments and beverages safe from metal contamination. By tackling some of the most difficult challenges in the food industry, Bunting is making it easier and safer to separate metal contamination from acidic products. From your glass of orange juice in the morning to your evening glass of wine, Bunting is protecting you from metal contamination at every hour of the day with our innovative magnetic separation products.
