The high pressure cyclone is designed to accept high velocity air and material. An inlet impact liner, body liner and sometimes a cone liner is used to deal with the wear and abrasion caused by high speed materials entering the cyclone.
The cyclone employs centrifugal separation, the air and dust is pushed to the receiver, material is discharges out the bottom and air discharged out the top.
Cyclones are sized specifically for the system air volume and cyclone abrasion resistant materials are selected for longer life of the cyclone.
