What is hydrocyclone cone, polyurethane spindle, or hydrocyclone apex?
One of the most basic devices in mineral processing is the hydrocyclone, which separates materials using centrifugal force and the specific weight of minerals. Hydrocyclone has the following components.
1- Hydrocyclone inlet vortex
2- Hydrocyclone spiral
3- Hydrocyclone funnel or large cone
4- Hydrocyclone apex or hydrocyclone cone, which this part is also known as the bottom of the hydrocyclone and is very useful in the operation of the hydrocyclone, which is discussed in detail in this article. or fine bottom and how to separate the particles and their exit:
In the hydrocyclone, fluid or slurry is transferred to the hydrocyclone through slurry pumps, which with the necessary pressure and based on the design of the hydrocyclone creates a vortex inside the hydrocyclone and moves downwards. The hydrocyclone comes out of the head.
Features of Polyurethane Spindle or Conical Polyurethane
As the name of this piece suggests, its shape is conical or spindle-shaped, and the angle of the spindle is designed to reach the desired output at the end of the cone and take the desired product, the conical outlet or apex is very important in the operation of the hydrocyclone.
To answer this question, the case where the apex opening is wide or narrow will be discussed as follows.
What happens if the apex opening is wide? The slurry creates the necessary pressure for the vortex, but due to the wideness of the bottom, a significant amount of mineral matter that must be removed from the head enters the product of the hydrocyclone.
What happens if the opening of the apex or cone is tight? It becomes a hydrocyclone.
2- Due to the fact that the opening is small and the apex does not have the opportunity to exit all the large grain load, most of the medium particles of the grain exit from the series instead of passing through the fine bottom, and the hydrocyclone grain is disturbed.
3- It causes a lot of pressure to all parts of the hydrocyclone and even the slurry pump. What is a hydrocyclone and its solution? - clogging and blockage of the apex: to prevent it, the pump pressure and flow required for the hydrocyclone must be fully adjusted and the materials entering the hydrocyclone must not be coarse. Anti-wear alloy steel
2. Steel: which is not usually used due to its high cost.
3. Polyurethane: Nowadays, it is the most popular because of its high resistance to wear and lower cost.
4. Ceramics: Ceramics are used in mines where corrosiveness is very high, but due to the high price of molding and its fragility, it is usually used in special cases.
Hydrocyclone applications:
Hydrocyclone is used in various industries, which is most effective in mines and is also used in other industries such as oil, gas, agriculture, etc. Therefore, it has different prices, in the equipment collection of Sanat Zarineh, all of the above items can be manufactured and supplied to our dear customers.
