Electromagnet Maintenance (Figure – 6)
Electromagnets require very little maintenance to provide a long useful life.
Daily use of a shop towel to wipe the magnet face free of debris, grease and
oil or other foreign matter will ensure years of service life and thousands
of safe operations.
The pulling capacity is greatly reduced when the face of the magnet is dirty.
Use care when handling the magnet so as not to nick or mar the pulling
surface. If the face is heavily worn, lightly surface grind a few thousandths
off the face to clean up the pulling surface.
Never try to remove the electrical wires mounted in the magnet. Should
you do this you will destroy the magnet and it will require rebuilding or
replacement.
