High-efficiency KREBS^® heavy-media hydrocyclones

High-efficiency separation

FLS heavy-media cyclones boast exceptional efficiency thanks to various design features incorporated from the KREBS D26B cyclone, the industry’s standard high-capacity cyclone as well as for larger sizes. The use of centrifugal force enhances separation of fine particles, which cannot be efficiently recovered using static heavy-media vessels. Our heavy-media cyclones are relatively inexpensive and typically require little operator attention or maintenance.

Higher feed rates

Our large-diameter heavy-media cyclones accept larger top size material for efficient separation at higher feed rates within your mineral processing plant.

Long service life

A thick ceramic tile lining is critical, as dense media can be very abrasive. At the inlet, we offer pre-engineered ceramic components in two grades, with 25-38mm (1in.-1.5in.) thickness. We machine each pre-engineered tile in its ‘green’ state and fire the lot to create interlocking serialised liner components for extended wear life. The lower cone section and apex are protected by a heavy-duty monolithic ceramic lining.
