OverviewCyclone separators are mechanical devices that remove dust from gas streams by centrifugal separation. They provide high air-to-solids ratios in a compact footprint and can discharge purified air to atmosphere when residual dust requirements are moderate.
Key benefits- Efficient particle separation with low pressure drop in the low mbar range.
- Hygienic construction options: mild steel (carbon steel) or stainless steel for applications such as food processing and milling.
- Space-saving design with a wide range of sizes to match process requirements.
Models and key features- LCGA — Compact cyclone designed to guarantee purified air in general applications.
- MGXE — Compact separator covering 2.5–60 m³/min with low pressure drop (approx. 5–10 mbar).
- MGXH — Compact variant for low-to-moderate volumetric flows (2.5–60 m³/min; approx. 5–10 mbar).
- MGXG — Large separator for higher volumetric flows (35–600 m³/min; approx. 7–15 mbar).
Applications- Dedusting of untreated gas streams across a wide range of flow rates.
- Suitable for food processing, milling and other industries requiring hygienic design (select stainless steel versions where required).
Materials & construction- Available in carbon steel or stainless steel to meet hygienic and sanitary requirements.
- Engineered to combine centrifugal separating efficiency with a compact footprint and high air-to-solids ratios.
Performance & operation- Typical pressure drop: approximately 5 mbar to 15 mbar depending on model and operating point.
- High air-to-solids ratios ensure effective centrifugal separation of dust from aspirated air.
Technical specifications- Overall volumetric flow range (product family): approx. 2.5 to 600 m³/min.
- MGXE / MGXH: 2.5–60 m³/min; optimal pressure drop: 5–10 mbar.
- MGXG: 35–600 m³/min; optimal pressure drop: 7–15 mbar.
- Construction options: carbon steel or stainless steel for hygienic applications.
- Design focus: compact footprint and efficient separation; purified air may be exhausted to atmosphere when residual dust levels are moderate.
