A precision component in starch hydrocyclones that controls centrifugal separation efficiency by directing vortex flow patterns.
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Length | 1.5-3.0 × diameter | |
| Diameter | 10-150 mm (matches hydrocyclone size) | |
| Taper Angle | 0° (parallel) or 1-3° (convergent) | |
| Wall Thickness | 2-8 mm | |
| Connection Type | Threaded (ISO 228/7), flanged (DIN 11851), or clamp |
Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.

Larger diameters increase overflow capacity but reduce separation sharpness; smaller diameters improve cut-point precision but may cause clogging. Optimal diameter is typically 30-40% of hydrocyclone body diameter.
Monthly inspection for erosion/corrosion, especially at the inlet edge. Clean with food-grade CIP systems using 2% NaOH solution. Replace when diameter increases by >5% due to wear.
