Text Box: HRT Radial Spin Separator
For gas flow in any direction

The HRT Radial Spin Separator is an in-line unit that uses centrifugal spin to separate droplets form the gas stream. It is a versatile design which is used in applications where plugging may be a problem.

Advantages:
High liquid capacity
Gas flow can be in any direction, including down-flow
Retrofits easily in existing ductwork
Suitable for vacuum and pressure processes
Non-plugging, maintenance-free operation
No moving parts

Materials of Construction:
Metals: 304, 316 stainless steels, carbon steel;
Plastic: FRP and Thermoplastic lined FRP;
Available in any fabricatable material

Operating Range:
Face velocity: 6-12 m/s; special types up to 15m/s.
Limit drop size: 25+ microns, depends on gas flow
Capacity: 2000 ¨C 200,000 ACFM
Performance data shown in curves is f(face velocity) at standard gas density (1.2 kg/m3)  Actual performance is based on actual process data.
        (Conversion: 1m/s ~ 200 ft/min; 1 mbar ~ 0.4ˇ± WG)

Applications:
Used in gas streams containing ˇ°dirtyˇ± droplets which cause plugging or rain-out, and where maintenance-free operation is essential.
Protection of ventilation fans; paper machine exhausts
Collection of entrainment from scrubbers, especially with particulate loading; reactors; blow tanks (pulp); evaporators; steam vents; general process gas cleaning;
Elimination of droplet rain-out ¨C stack mounted

Application Bulletins:
Available on request

We supply:
HRT Separator complete with all necessary accessories (spray, hatch, pre-separator etc.): coupled with system fan; also stack for rain-out types.

Principle of Operation:
Specially designed static spin vanes in the inlet throat induce a high velocity spin which separates the
droplets from the gas by centrifugal force. The droplets collect in the separation chamber and drain from the

Types and designations

Series HRT: (Radial spin separators)

 

These are a family of separators that use axial spin         

(in-line centrifugal) to separate droplets from the gas.

They are available in a wide variety of configurations

and operate with the gas flow in any direction

(including vertically downwards). They are used a lot

in "dirty applications" i.e. where there are plugging

materials present. The HRT does not have the

smallest limit drop size but it is the most versatile and is un-pluggable.

 

The HRT is supplied as an integral unit complete with housing or a part of stack or pipe system.
