Ditch magnet Application
Ditch Magnet is a tool to capture and remove metal particles from the drilling mud that the shale shaker will not get. This unit will capture all metals having magnetic attraction and hole them until they can be removed from the mud stream. The magnet is particularly valuable during milling operations. Removal of mill cuttings and debris reduces wear of mud pumps and other equipment, as well as eliminating problems caused by the return downhole of harmful debris. They are equally effective during washover and fishing jobs.
Ditch magnet Structure
The ditch magnet is made of a highly performance magnet. It features simplicity、strong magnet field 、ruggedness and high power to weight ratio.
Ditch magnet Operation
No special instructions are required to operate the ditch magnet. It is most effective when suspended by soft line in the mud ditch. It may also be suspended by soft line in the shaker discharge. When the cuttings or debris are enough and need to be removed, take off the magnet and open the inserter from the end with pull rod, pull out the magnet core body, the cuttings and debris will drop down. The magnet body shall be cleaned with fresh water and assemble again for use.
