Desander Cyclones
Our desanders are the most technologically advanced hydrocyclones
available on the market, and they are designed to provide the best
possible performance. Under the most demanding applications, each
cone will process 1000 GPM at 70 feet of head. Our desanders are
engineered to produce the least amount of turbulence while
maximising tangential velocity.
TR hydrocyclone desanders are designed to remove abrasive materials
from drilling mud that cannot be removed by shakers or other
conventional methods. Multiple desander units can be joined
together to create units that can handle significantly bigger flows
and solids handling capacities than they could alone.
When drilling, desanders are a set of hydrocyclones that filter out
the sand and silt from the drilling fluids as they pass through
them. It is common practise to put desanders on top of the mud
tank, after the shale shaker and before the degasser, but before
the desilter. The desander is responsible for removing abrasive
materials from drilling fluids that cannot be removed by shakers.
Ordinarily, the solids diameter for desander separation would be
45-74 microns.
