The hydraulic classifier is a device used for particle size classification based on the differences in the settling velocities of particles in a water stream. It mainly consists of a classification tank and a feeding device. After the slurry is fed into the machine, fine particles are discharged as overflow with the water flow, while coarse particles settle to the bottom. By adjusting the water flow, slurry concentration, and equipment inclination angle, the classification particle size can be precisely controlled to achieve continuous operation.
Widely used in mining, building materials, and chemical industries, this equipment is a key device for wet classification. Typical applications include: Particle Size Classification: Sizing raw materials such as quartz sand. Closed-Circuit Grinding: Controlling the particle size of return sand in the closed-circuit grinding process of mineral processing to improve grinding efficiency. Slime Removal: Separating fine slime from gravel to enhance the purity of building materials. Wastewater Treatment: Desanding separation in wastewater treatment and tailings dewatering.
