Working Principal
The hydrocyclone is a high-efficiency classification device operating on centrifugal sedimentation principles. Slurry enters the conical chamber tangentially under pressure (0.1-0.3MPa), generating a rapid vortex flow. Centrifugal force drives coarse/dense particles toward the wall for downward spiral movement (discharged as underflow), while fine/light particles exit through the top overflow pipe. Capable of precise 0.01-0.3mm particle separation with 40% higher efficiency than conventional classifiers, it excels in fine classification, thickening, and desanding of high-density slurries (20-40% solids). Its compact, motionless design ensures 24/7 continuous operation with only 1/3 energy consumption of spiral classifiers.
Advantages
![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
High-Efficiency Classification: Achieves precise 0.01-0.3mm particle separation with 40% higher efficiency than conventional classifiers, ideal for high-density slurries (20-40% solids).

FAQ
Q: What's the minimum particle size for hydrocyclones?
A: Efficient for 0.01-0.3mm particles (optimal 0.02-0.1mm), requires 0.1-0.3MPa feed pressure.
Q: How to adjust underflow density?
A: ①Change apex size ②Maintain 0.15-0.25MPa feed pressure ③Optimize feed density (20-35%).
Q: Hydrocyclone vs vibrating screen?
A: Cyclones separate finer (0.01mm) & handle 5x capacity, but screens dewater better (<10% moisture).
