Centrifugal Sand Separators

For Centrifugal Removal of Sand, Silt and Gravel from Water

Industrial Systems

Centrifugal Sand Separators

Time. Quality. Experience. Knowledge.
Yardney Centrifugal Sand Separators are ideal for removal of suspended solids and inorganic materials with a specific gravity of 2 or greater. This highly effective system will provide consistent, simple removal of inorganic material down to 75 microns. Easily installed, these carbon steel units are rated to 150 psi with threaded or flanged inlet/outlet connections. Smaller models are designed for vertical installation while larger models are angled and floor or groundmounted. Sizing must be within the specified flow range for proper centrifugal action. Larger flow separators and custom designed systems areavailable.

Applications
Removal of sand, rock, grit and other inorganic contaminants with fine mesh filtration down to 200 mesh or 75 microns Storm water runoff, industrial process water, incoming plant water, waste water clean-up, industrial water for plant reuse 150 psi standard operating pressure (high pressure systemsavailable) Flow ranges from 4 gpm andup Removal of solids with a specific gravity of 2 orgreater Serves as an excellent prefilter to allow for improved sand media or screen filter performance by removing the gross solids from the watersource

Advantages
Sand removal efficiency of 98% of solids down to 200 mesh or 75microns Multiple units in series provide higher efficiencies of filtration Units are available in ASME code or non-code construction Available with a manual or automatic solids purge valvesystem Special alloys and coatings are available for prolonged life in required applications Made in USA

Available options:

Liquid/solid mix enters unit tangentially, inducing centrifugal action

Centrifugal action moves heavier particles to sides of the separator

Clean water is drawn out through the separators vortex action

Solids drop into the collection chamber and are then purged as required
