Troubleshooting Cyclone Dust Collectors | Fluid Engineering Blog
Cyclone dust collectors are so named because they utilize a basic cyclonic effect to centrifugally separate dust from the carrying air or gas stream. The conveying gas stream enters the cyclone separator through an inlet opening at the top of the collector. The stream enters tangentially or involutely depending on equipment design (Fig. 1).

For a hydrocyclone to work at peak efficiency the volume of slurry and the feed pump delivery pressure must remain constant. If the cyclone feed pump is allowed to SURGE, the up and down pressure will cause poor separation at the point of high and low operating pressure. There is a cycle to a surging pump box that causes this pressure fluctuation.
