AKA-SPIDER are annular distributors, combining several hydrocyclones together in order to reach a requested process throughput.
Principle of operation
The hydrocyclones are connected to an inflow chamber (feed chamber) which is fed with the necessary amount of slurry at a calculated pressure. Each hydrocyclone charged with the same pressure. The hydrocyclone overflows will be collected in an overflow tank, and the underflows in a separate underflow chute.
Design features and advantages
•Homogeneous and equal pressure distribution of the suspension on every hydrocyclone in operation
•Equal flow distribution
•Customized design
•Available as annular or longitude distributor
•Available with rubber liner
•Reduced dead zone in the feed tank
•Different kind of shut off valves (butterfly valves, fiat valves, bottom angle valves)
•Can be equipped with antiblocking filter AKA-STRAINER
Applications
•Minerais (e.g. Kaolin, Feldspar, Talcum, Chalk, Quartz, Gypsum, Bentonite, Zircon, Phosphate)
•Ores (e.g. Iron ore. Bauxite, Zinc ore. Tin ore. Manganèse ore, Chromite ore, Niobium-Tantalite-ore)
•Chemical intermediates
•Alumina
• Sands
