Utilizing Pressure Differentials and Tangential Forces for Separation

The Grit Removal Systems and cyclones in various configurations. Efficient and properly sized grit cyclone systems protect downstream machines for foreign object damage and wear from grit. All HydroCyclone Systems are customizable to fit specific capacities and particle size filtration needs. Solenoid valves can be provided for germ and stone cyclones, enabling automation.

Grit Removal Cyclones are typically installed in two pass systems with a reject pot and knife gate valves for periodic purging.

Benefits

Design Features
- Integrated tapered piping designed to keep solids suspended in the slurry
- Cyclone construction of 15-5PH cast heads and 316L spun cones with ceramic lower cones provide for long life of cyclones and reliable operation.
- Quick Disconnect couplings simplify cyclone inspection and system maintenance.
- Designed to fit into FluidQuip Original Equipment Systems and Retrofit into Current Plant Systems
- Replaceable stainless steel mid-cone section and ceramic lower cone help to minimize cyclone wear.
Grit Removal
The GS8″/6″-4/1 grit removal system offers slim line design for Mill Stream degritting capacities of over 40,000 bpd (1000 MTPD).
Quick Coupling
Quick Release Snap Couplings are constructed of aluminum with stainless steel hinge pins to provide strength and durability while resisting corrosion and binding.

Selected cyclones can be opened or closed during washing to meet process needs.
