SBM hydrocyclones feature a unique laminarspiral inlet geometry designed to deliver maximumefficiency, maximum capacity, and longer wearlife than conventional involute or tangential feedcyclone designs. Not just a cone modification, hydrocyclones utilize an entirely new feed geometrythat substantially increases hydraulic capacity whileminimizing localized wear on the feed chamber andvortex finder. These design improvementsresult inlower operating costs and fewer cyclones requiredfor a given duty.For grinding circuit applications,cyclonesincrease circuit capacity by minimizing the quantityof fines bypassing to the underflow stream. hydrocyclones achieve these results by maximizingthe air core diameter created within the rotatingmass of fluid in the cyclone. These effects areproven in both laboratory testing and full scaleplant operation.
