Engineered solutions
Fluid_Quip's 6", 8", and 9" (15.2cm, 20.3 cm, and 22.9 cm) Germ Separation Cyclones are designed to last. The 15-5 pH hardened stainless steel cast heads eliminate the cracking prevalent in weld fabricated designs.

The 316 L stainless steel cones are work hardened by spinning for abrasion resistance. The 1/8" (3.2 mm) thick walls insure structural stiffness and long life. Connections are easily accomplished with Fluid-Quip's quick disconnect couplings. The all aluminium and stainless steel coupling design prevents problems with corrosion and binding, experienced with many other couplings.

Fluid-Quip's Germ Separation Cyclones are interchangeable with other 6", 8", and 9" (15.2 cm, 20.3 cm, and 22.9 cm) models commonly used in the wet corn milling industry.

Capacities
6CSS2,000 bushels/day (51 metric tons/day) "A" stage 70gpm (4.4 liters/sec.) at 40 psig (2.8 bars) pressure drop

("B" stage requires half the number of "A" stage cyclones and operates at approximately the same 40 psig (2.8 bars) pressure drop).

8CSS8,000 bushels/day(204 metric tons/day) "A" stage 365 gpm (23 liters/sec.) at 40 psig (2.8 bars) pressure drop

("B" stage requires 55% to 75% the number of "A" stage cyclones and operates at approximately the same 40 psig (2.8 bars) pressure drop)

9CSS11,000 bushels/day (280 metric tons/day) "A" stage 475 gpm (30 litres/sec.) at 40 psig (2.8 bars) pressure drop

("B" stage requires 65% to 85% the number of "A" stage cyclones and operates at approximately the same 40 psig (2.8 bars) pressure drop)
