What is a hydrocyclone used for and how does it work? | Weir
A hydrocyclone consists of a cylindrical top with an offset feed inlet pipe, an overflow outlet on top and tapered cone(s) leading down to a small outlet on the bottom. Other parts include external casings that contain the internal pressure and are clamped or bolted together, and internal replaceable liners for wear resistance.

Hydrocyclone Working Principle
Hydrocyclone Working Principle. The centre of this spiral is called the VORTEX. The purpose of the apex is to cause internal pressure for the cyclone and to create a vortex that extends all of the way to the top of the cyclone.
