Open-pole vs. double-sealed magnetic separators: Why the choice is important for safety and maintenance
Magnetic separators are used to remove metal particles from products, for example in the food industry. There are two main types of magnetic systems: open-pole and double-sealed magnetic systems. Both systems have the same purpose, but they work in different ways. It is important to understand why a double-sealed magnet system is often the better choice, especially when it comes to safety, efficiency and maintenance.

Open-pole systems generate strong magnetic fields, but have disadvantages such as more difficult cleaning and a higher risk of damage to the magnets. Double-sealed magnet systems, on the other hand, offer extra protection against wear, moisture and contamination, which leads to a longer lifespan and easier maintenance.
