Centrifugal separator ZSB series

Overview
The loaded airflow enters the ZSB tangentially at the head, generating a vortex that forces particles outward by centrifugal action. Solids or liquids move along the wall and are collected in a discharge container. In the lower housing the flow reverses and rises through an immersion tube, forming the cyclone vortex and completing the separation.

Features / Technical specifications

• Tangential inlet at the head producing a vortex sink for centrifugal separation.
• Separated solids/liquids slide spirally into a collection container.
• Flow reversal in the lower housing and upward flow through an immersion tube creating a cyclone vortex.
• Designed operating pressure drop: 1 200–3 000 Pa (typical for higher separation capacities).
• Typical volume flows: 100–1 600 m³/h depending on ZSB type.
• Dust handling capacity up to approx. 100 kg/h (application dependent).
• Optional return air head available to reduce pressure loss compared with the standard design.
• Characteristic particle sizes (typical): d₅₀ ≈ 2–3 µm, d₉₀ ≈ 6–10 µm (type-dependent; see technical data above).
