TR Desilter Cyclone – Precision Solids Removal for Drilling Fluids
Product Description
The TR Desilter Cyclone is a high-efficiency solids control device
engineered to remove silt-sized particles ranging from 15 to 25
microns from drilling fluids. Designed with advanced inline
involute feed technology, these hydrocyclones ensure reduced
turbulence, optimized flow patterns, and higher separation
efficiency. Each cone delivers a consistent 100 GPM capacity,
maintaining stable performance even under demanding oilfield and
construction site conditions.
Constructed with high wear-resistant polyurethane or foundry iron,
the cyclones guarantee durability, long service life, and reliable
operation in harsh environments. Equipped with isolation valves at
each inlet, cones can be individually inspected or replaced without
shutting down the entire system—ensuring continuous operation and minimal downtime.
Compact in size yet powerful in performance, the TR Desilter
Cyclone is a trusted choice for oil & gas, trenchless HDD, mining,
and tunneling operations where superior solids removal and reduced
mud loss are critical.
Features & Benefits
