Hydrocyclones is also called cyclone separator.Hydrocyclones include hydrocyclone desander(10 in. cone) and hydrocyclone desilter(4 in. cone),which used to separate sand and silt from the drilling fluid.
A hydrocyclone has two exits on the axis: the smaller on the bottom (underflow or reject) and larger at the top (overflow or accept). The underflow is generally the denser or thicker fraction, while the overflow is the lighter or more fluid fraction. Centrifugal pump is used to pump the drilling fluids from mud tank into the set of hydrocyclones.
KOSUN desander has Flexible options for 1,2 or 3 hydrocyclone desander for different capacities and
desilter has flexible options for 8 or 10,12,16 hydrocyclone for different capacities.
Desander is installed after
shale shaker and degasser but before desilter. Desander removes those abrassive solids from the drilling mud which cannot be removed by
shale shakers.
KOSUN is dedicated to providing a solution to water based, oil based and synthetic based drilling fluids. Our equipments can be used in onshore and offshore drilling as well as in HDD, CBM and shale gas drilling area. KOSUN’s main
solids control equipment include shale shakers,
decanter centrifuges, mud cleaners, desanders, desilters, centrifugal pumps, vacuum degassers, mud tanks, shaker screens and the complete set of various solids control systems.
