The laminar spiral inlet geometry design provides a natural flow path into the Cavex® hydrocyclone. Its unique shape has no sharp edges or square corners and allows the feed stream to blend smoothly with rotating slurry inside the chamber.
Delivers the same underflow density regardless of any uncontrolled variation in solids content in the feed.
Readily handles unexpected tramp oversize in the feed without plugging.
Produces a very high underflow density (essentially water and slime free) without risking ‘roping’ conditions that result in solids losses via the overflow.
Features simple variation of the underflow density, as required via the syphon control valve, without the need to resort to troublesome and expensive mechanical or hydraulic adjustable spigot arrangements.
Delivers lower spigot maintenance. The various features and benefits of the dewatering hydrocyclone means that the unit can be sized considerably smaller than other dewatering devices. This means it can easily be mounted on structures or over bins for use with screens
