MAG-MATE RELM12 Electromagnetic Lift Magnet, Round, 12 Inch Diameter

Mag-Mate RELM12 electromagnetic lifting magnet is used to primarily lift thick, ferrous items like steel plates, die castings, billets & forgings in fabrication shops, foundries, machine tool shops & machine builders. This round electro lift magnet (RELM) offers concentrated holding power due to its deep-reaching magnetic field that can lift thick materials. It has a maximum holding value of 4500 lb.

Working Mechanism:

• Wipe any debris from the lifting magnet's bottom & the workpiece where the magnet will be placed.
• Centre the magnet on the workpiece.
• Turn the switch to On / Hold after positioning the magnet.
• Lift the piece slightly & move the load to ensure positive holding power. Lower the load & reposition the magnet to balance the load properly.
• Transport the workpiece to the desired location by avoiding severe jarring or swinging of the load.
• After positioning the load over a solid surface, move the load switch past the Off position to the Drop / Release position while holding for 2 - 3 seconds.
• The magnet should not be energised till it contacts the next piece to be lifted.

Features:

• Industrial Magnetics Mag-Mate RELM12 electromagnetic lifting magnet has a control switch with 'on, off & release' positions mounted on the unit's top for controlling the functions of the magnet.
• It can be directly plugged into an electrical supply for use and does not require any separate power supply unit.
• This round electro lift magnet (RELM) includes a heavy-duty cord with a mating twist-lock plug & receptacle for quick operation.

Standards and Approvals:

• ASME B30.20 BTH-1 Design Category B
• REACH
• RoHS
