High Capacity Cyclones

The Unique Inlet Designs.
The heart of the Multotec Cyclone Range

Through extensive testing and simulations, Multotec Process Equipments has proven that both the scrolled evolute and ribbon inlet with patented pressure bulge inlet designs have a higher capacity when compared to other inlet designs. These designs substantially reduces vortex finder wear, Thereby reducing operating costs whilst maintaining cyclone efficiency.

Materials of Construction and Cyclone Range

Available materials are:

		Polyurethane - VV range A special abrasion resistant polyurethane which under certain conditions can givea three times the life of rubber.

		Rubber (15mm thick) - PC range A natural rubber with excellent abrasion resistance to coarse angular particles

		Rubber (25mm thick) - HC range A natural rubber which, due to its thickness, provides excellent abrasion resistance in heavy wearing applications.

		Rubber (10mm thick to 25mm thick) HR - range A combiantion of 10mm natural rubber in the upper low wearing sections and 25mm thick natural rubber in the lower high wearing sections.

		Silicon Carbide - SC range Liners manufactures from nitride bonded silicon caride which provides superior abrasion resistance in certain applications.

Weep holes prevent damage to housings

Outer housings fitted with weep holes located in the highest wear areas. Slurry dripping from the weep holes gives an early indication that the liner needs replacing, preventing casing wear.

Lightweight overflow elbow

Overflow elbows are made from an abrasion-resistant high density polymer, that is lightweight, requires no corrosion protection and is cost-effective. A rubber sleeve is fitted to reduce wear the vortex finder discharge.

Spigot Holders

A lightweight spigot holder houses the spigot. The desing of the holder enables inspection and/or replacement of the spigot with ease.

Loose liners

All wetted surfaces are lined with 15 or 25mm thick loose, replaceable rubber liners, which have up to three times the life of conventional liners. This reduces operating costs, maintenance and stock holdings. Alternative liners, such as polyurethane and silicon carbide, are available.

Vortex finders

The scrolled evolute and ribbon inlet designs reduce cortex finder wear to the degree that polyurethane or rubber lined vortex finders can be used cost-effectively.

Cyclone distributors

For multiple larger cyclone operations. cyclone distributors are available. The Assemblies have been designed to ensure optimum cyclone operation and are extremely compact.

Canister assembly

For multiple cyclone operations, canisters are available. The assemblies have been designed to ensure optimum cyclone operation and are extremely compact.

Applications
Used throughout the mineral processing industry.
