Hydrocyclone

Hydrocyclone (cyclone separator) is widely used in closed circuit grinding operations but it also has many other applications, such as desliming, degritting, and thickening.The hydrocyclone is a device that uses a centrifugal inertia force to grade materials in a swirling flow. The use of a certain pressure to the slurry along the tangential direction of the feed, so that rotation, the slurry in the centrifugal force under the action to accelerate the deposition of the inner part of the cyclone to achieve the purpose of classification.

We manufacture the complete range of Hydrocyclone. The offered cyclone separator is manufactured by utilizing superior quality material and advanced techniques in accordance with the industry norms. Offered cyclone separator ensures smooth operations and is highly efficient in nature. Also, our quality experts strive hard for checking this cyclone separator in order to supply defect free range at customer’s end.
1.Hydrocyclone: graded cyclone and desliming cyclone.
2.Graded cyclone can classify particles of 800-74 microns (43 microns). This kind of cyclone has higher ore feeding solid mass fraction, larger ore feeding pressure and thicker cylinder diameter;
3.Personalized structure design: We own multifarious patent structure and advanced technology at abroad and domestic. For example, according to the feeding method, feed structure could be divided into the involute feeding, the volute pre-classifying feeding, spiral feeding etc. According to conical structure, it could be divided into large cone angle design, multi-cone structure, the cone angle gradient structure, etc. According to the overflow way, it could be divided into the air conditioning energy saving overflow cap, thick wall overflow pipe and other design. 
4.Advantages: simple structure, small footprint & high productivity.

 

Parameters

Principle

Under the pressure (0.04-0.35MPa), the slurry goes into the cyclone along the tangential direction through feeding pipe, which forms high-speed rotary flow in the interior of the cyclone and produces great centrifugal force. At the center of the cyclone, rotary speed of slurry and centrifugal force reach the maximum value. As a result of the expansion of the slurry to the surroundings, a low pressure band is formed around the central axis. The air inhaled through the sinker mouth forms low pressure air column in the central axis. In addition to the tangential rotation movement, the slurry in the cyclone also has radial movement toward the center. Moreover, the slurry close to the center also has the upward movement along the axial direction while the peripheral slurry mainly makes downward movement toward the sinker mouth along the axial direction where there exists a zero point that the slurry will change the movement direction. The points are connected in the space to form an approximately conical surface, which becomes the zero velocity envelope surface. By means of the larger centrifugal inertial force, the medium and coarse particles in the slurry move outward and remain at the zero velocity envelope surface. With the downward movement of peripheral slurry, the medium and coarse particle minerals are finally discharged by the sinker mouth. The fine particles have slower centrifugal sedimentation speed, which are carried by the upward vortex and finally discharged by overflow pipe.
