Cyclone dust collector
100 - 72 000 cfm Clyde Process Limited

The primary function of a cyclone is to separate product from a gas stream. After separation, the product discharges out the bottom of the cyclone and air discharges through the top exhaust.
Cyclone design is application-specific based on material size distribution, specific gravity and inlet velocities. Therefore, varying efficiencies will result, depending on the cyclone design selected. In bulk powder handling systems, it is advisable to incorporate a filter as a secondary high efficiency separator. The filter then captures the particulate emissions from the cyclone and efficiency is based on the filter media selected. In final consideration, the degree of separation efficiency and performance reliability will determine the types of separation devices incorporated in the system design.
Cyclones available from Clyde include:

Airflow ratings from 100 CFM to 72,000 CFM for a variety of applications including dryer and cooler emissions control.
Pneumatic receivers for powders and pellets.
Primary and secondary separators for wet and dry products, and elutriators for pellets.
Designs with and without vortex chambers.
Available in carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum construction.
