Solid control equipment desilter usage introduction
Desilter used in solids control system is the 3rd phase equipment. Desilter is set after desander and prior to decanter centrifuge. The flow rate of desilter separator is decided by cones number. Usually, we utilize 4″ cone for desilter.
Each 4″ cone holds capacity 12~15m³/h. To achieve desilter separation there should be centrifugal pump as cone feeding pump. Under pump transfer power, there will be sufficient pressure pull drilling fluid swirl in cones body. Then solids will be separated out by centrifugal force. Theoretically, desilter will get rid of solids sized over 15 microns.
Desilter structure
Including fluid feed inlet, fluid discharge pipe, desilter cones, the support frame, bottom shaker or mud chute. The main parts including hydrocyclone, shaker screen, spring, screen motor, and so on.
There are thousands of manufacturer all over the globe manufacture solids control equipment. Desilter is one small part of such equipment.
