Zusammenfassung:A magnetic filtration apparatus and a method configured to separate contaminant ferrous material from a fluid. The apparatus comprises a plurality of filter cartridges 100, each cartridge comprising a magnet 101, a fluid inlet 104 and a fluid outlet 128. The apparatus further comprises a carousel assembly 105 mounting each filter cartridge and configured to move the cartridges in a cyclical manner between operative filtration positions and at least one cleaning position. A contaminant removal means is provided at the cleaning position and is configured to dislodge deposited ferrous material from entrapment by the magnetic field created by the magnet as part of the filtration cycle. The apparatus is preferably automated and controlled using a PC or programmable logic circuit (PLC).
