K58 MAGNETIC SEPARATOR
The K58 is a permanent magnet type separator
designed to fit the top of the standard fill funnel of the
continuous flux feed system.
The purpose of the separator is to remove magnetic
materials such as mill scale and any other extraneous
magnetic materials which may have been recovered
along with the flux to be processed.
It is important to remove these magnetic particles from
the flux which is to be reused in the continuous flux
feeding system. If the magnetic material is not
removed, it will gather around the nozzle of the gun
and impede or shut off the flux flow when making rela-
tively long welds or when welding continuously. The
magnetic particles can also cause porosity in the weld.
Fit the magnetic separator into the funnel or hopper.
Pour the flux to be reclaimed into the top pan of the
separator. The separator is designed so that the flux
flows around three permanent magnets. The magnets
remove all magnetic particles. When the magnets
become covered with their full load, they automatically
stop the flux flow. When the flux flow stops, remove the
separator from the funnel or hopper. Turn it over and
open the panel that covers the magnets. Remove the
magnetic particles by brushing or by using an air blast.
WHEN USING COMPRESSED AIR BE CAREFUL TO
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS IN THE AREA
FROM FLYING PARTICLES.
NOTE: The magnetic separator is used with all
Lincoln mild steel fluxes - 700 Series, 800 Series and
900 Series. Do not use the magnetic separator with
any stainless steel, alloy, or hardsurfacing flux except
H-535. The magnetic separator removes some of the
alloying elements from these fluxes, thus changing
their characteristics.
