What Is a Cyclone Filter?
A cyclone filter is a device designed to effectively separate suspended particles in powder or liquid using centrifugal force.
By rapidly introducing fluid into a conical container, the resulting vortex within the container pushes heavier powder and suspended particles against the container’s walls, causing them to fall to the bottom. Meanwhile, lighter powder and suspended particles are expelled from the top of the container due to the vortex.
Primarily used in liquid processing, such as water treatment, food processing, and removal of suspended matter or sludge, as well as in gas processing for the removal of dust generated by combustion or drying.
Known for its lack of a need for filters, easy maintenance, and suitability for high-temperature and high-pressure environments, the cyclone filter efficiently removes large particles. However, its effectiveness may vary depending on the particle size and fluid conditions.
