Stand Alone Pleated High Efficiency Single Cartridge Dust Collector for Process Machine

Multiple Cyclone Separators:

Multiple cyclone separators consist of a number of small diameter cyclones placed parallel to one another with vane spinners. The multi cyclones have a common inlet and outlet for air. The smaller diameter of the barrels and longer length makes them more efficient than regular cyclones. By being longer dust is retained inside for greater amount of time and smaller diameter of barrel increases centrifugal force, causing efficient separation of dust. The inclined dirty air plenum facilitates effective air and dust distribution in the dusty area and even distribution of clean air in the clean area. This type of collectors are commonly used in boilers or as preliminary cyclones.

As the dirty air enters the cyclone dust collector, it is forced into a swirling movement. This results in a centrifugal force acting on the dust particles suspended in the air stream. The particles, denser than the air, are forced to move outwards, towards the cyclone dust collector wall. They then fall downwards, towards the dust exit. The clean air is eventually directed towards the centre of the cyclone and leaves through the gas exit.
Cyclone dust collector efficiency is a function of the physical parameters of the particles and the design parameters of the unit. Cyclone efficiency increases with:

?  Coarse particle size distribution
?  Higher products specific gravity
?  Lower gas density
?  Smaller outlet diameter. An increase in pressure drop also results.
