BLUMAGS Moby Game Changing Magnet
SAFETY
Always keep a safe distance between the magnet and the following equipment
Pacemakers or other electronic life-sustaining equipment| 2 m /
7 feet
---|---
Other magnets| 400 mm /
16 inches
Steel surfaces and tools (except when intentional)
Sensitive electronic and magnetic equipment such as phones, compasses, stripe
cards and hard drives
When applying the magnet (whether by hand or from an ROV), keep the release screw in its extended position to reduce the force of impact when it meets a steel surface. Do not put your fingers under the magnet. Be aware that the magnetic holding force may be reduced due to corrosion, paint, uneven steel surfaces, marine growth, steel thicknesses, alloy type, and pulling angle. Do not suspend yourself from the magnet or in any other way put yourself in danger should the magnet lose its grip. Likewise, refrain from suspending objects that may cause injury or damage if the magnet is unable to maintain its hold.
Disclaimer
Under no circumstances will Blumags / Apex Technology AS be held responsible
or liable in any way for any claims, damages, losses, expenses, costs or
liabilities whatsoever (including, without limitation, any direct or indirect
damages for loss of profits or business interruption) resulting or arising
directly or indirectly from your use of or inability to use this product.
OPERATION
The grip bar (B) is the primary interface for the ROV, intended as an anchoring point or for holding the magnet. The two flex joints (D) are intended to reduce the forces transferred to the ROV. The magnet is shipped with two release screws (C). Only one is needed for operation. When applying the magnet on a steel surface, keep the release screw(s) in the extended position to reduce the force of impact, then turn the screw(s) anti-clockwise until the magnetic modules (E) are in full contact with the surface. The magnet is released by turning the release screw(s) clockwise.The magnetic modules are hinged, allowing Moby to be attached to a tubular element.
CUSTOMISATION
If so preferred, one of the two release screws can be removed from the magnet. The tool plate (A) has several holes which can be used to attach custom equipment on the magnet. Refer to the Technical Specification for dimensions, available for download at www.blumags.com/pages/moby.
STORAGE, PRESERVATION & SHIPPING
Clean the magnet with fresh water and dry it after each use. Dust and dirt may be difficult to brush off from the magnetic surfaces but can be easily removed with pressurized air. Otherwise, use a wet cloth. Inspect the flex joints for damage after use. The rubber might get damaged if subjected to excessive bending. Due to the metal parts inside, they will not break off entirely. Contact Blumags if you need to replace the flex joints. The magnet is shipped with metal sheets (keepers) at the bottom of the case. With the keepers, the magnet can be safely shipped by air without restrictions (under IATA packing instruction 953).
