PURPOSE OF THE
DEVICE
A cyclone dust collector is a device designed to separate dust, dirt and other
particulate matter from air or gas. Its main purpose is to protect the working
environment and maintain air quality by separating and trapping impurities that
could otherwise be inhaled by workers or contaminate production processes. It
can also help extend the life of other machinery and equipment by reducing the
amount of dust and dirt that can settle and accumulate
on their components.
IMPROPER USE OF
EQUIPMENT
Cyclone separators shall not be used for purposes or under conditions other
than those specified above. Furthermore, it is forbidden to operate them with
components other than those with which they were supplied.
Cyclone separators must not be operated in a different power range than that
specified in this manual.
Improper use of the units includes installation and maintenance by untrained or
unauthorized persons, operation with a malfunction or defect, and operation
with dismantled or modified enclosures.
If it is discovered that the cyclone separator has been installed or serviced by an
untrained or unauthorized person, or has been used for purposes other than
those for which it is originally intended, or has been operated in violation of
applicable standards, general regulations, end user's internal rules or in

DESCRIPTION AND
FUNCTIONS
The cyclone separator is used to mechanically separate dust particles from
of the extracted air. It is often used in wood processing and recycling plants
operations.
A cyclone separator is a device used to separate dust and other solid particles from
a gas or liquid stream. The principle of its function is to create an eddy motion
during which dust particles are separated from the air or gas.
This technology is widely used in industry, especially in those areas where gases
need to be cleaned of particulate matter, such as wood processing plants, recycling
plants, steel mills. The cyclone separator is capable of removing particles larger
than 10 micrometers, making it an effective tool for reducing airborne dust
emissions.
The cyclone separator consists of several main parts: the inlet, the separator body
and the outlet for the purified gas. The dust particles are separated from the gas by
the centrifugal force generated by the swirling of the gas inside the device. The
separated dust is then collected at the bottom of the separator and can be further
processed or removed.
The selection of a particular model of cyclone separator, its features and equipment is a
matter of commercial negotiation between the manufacturer and the operator and this
manual does not describe all
Variants.
