Yamit Hydrocyclone Sand Separating Filter - 5000 Series
Our Hydrocyclone filters are ideal for when you need to pre-filter water with high loads of sand, before passing it through screen or media filters. They’re incredibly easy to operate – so you don’t have to worry about any moving parts. And they’re built to last so your irrigation system is always protected.
The Hydrocyclone Separator is a simple device, and easy to operate and maintain as it has no moving parts or screens. The Hydrocyclone separates sand and other solid matter form your application with very little headloss, and with 90% or greater efficiency than other separators in the market.
Hydrocyclones use a tangenital injection flow design which enhances the centrifugal forces and thus, is able to effectivley move the solid particles outwards. The particles then move down in a spiral manner into an underflow chamber, while the fresh =, clean liquid is moved upwards into the centre of the spiral and towards the top of the outlet.
Water enters the hydrocyclone via the tangential inlet which creates a spiral flow along the walls of the filter. The centrifugal force separates the waste and sand particles and pushes them towards the walls of the sand separator. Those particles gravitate downwards and into the sedimentation tank, while clean water moves upwards and exits through the top outlet. For the sand separator to operate correctly, the head loss must remain between 2-5m. The separation efficiency is not affected by the accumulation of dirt in the sedimentation tank. The sedimentation tank is drained by opening a flush valve for a few seconds manually or automatically by timer.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- The underflow chamber is drained automatcally without interuppting the full functioning of the device.
- Available in a variety of sizes: 3/4", 1", 1 1/2", 2", 3", 4", 5", 6", 8".
- Available with three end connections: Thread (M), Flange (F) and Victaulic (V)
- Has a 100 micron protective coating of extra durable polyester. This is applied electrostatically and is overn-cured on a zinc-phosphate layer for maximal anti-corrosian protection.
APPLICATIONS
- Used for the separation of sands and other solid materials from water or other liquids
- Protects pump, valves and irrigation systems from damage and abrasion that is often caused by suspended solids
- Pre-filtering of liquids prior to gravel filtration and screen filter systems
- For agricutlure, domestic, industrial and municipal usage
