Cyclone Dust Collectors

Economical, Centrifugal Separator for High-Volume Dust

The Donaldson Torit® Cyclone dust collector is designed specifically for high dust load, high temperature, and product recovery applications. It has a mechanical separator that uses centrifugal force to remove dust particulates from the air in industrial applications. Dusty air enters the cyclone and the dust particles travel around the inner wall of the cyclone. As the particles lose their velocity, they drop lower in the cyclone until they drop into the receptical below.

Operational Explanation

Dust-laden air enters the unit through the air inlet and is diverted by a helical baffle. Centrifugal force moves the heavy dust to the interior sidewalls and carries them to the base of the unit. Clean air is carried through the inner cylinder and discharges to atmosphere or optional afterfilters.
