3”, 4”, 5” Hydrocyclones

Tega Hydrocyclones are made of high wear resistant polyurethane and are light in weight. Entire cyclone body consists of moulded polyurethane parts, which are held together by steel plates and stainless steel studs/clamps. Simple and quick release type of clamp system is provided for spigot fixing.
 
Hydrocyclones are available in single units. For larger flow rates , cyclones are supplied in radials, mushrooms or canisters. These forms can accommodate 4 – 60 cyclones depending on the type of radial selected.
