Engineers from Novosibirsk have improved a device for removing dusty air

Specialists from the "Taira" plant have improved the cyclone for safe operation in mining and metallurgy

Specialists from the Novosibirsk plant "Taira" have modernized a device for removing dusty air used in the mining and metallurgical industries. The development provides a more secure mounting of the device and the formation of an optimal gap for the effective removal of dusty air flows.

This refers to a key element of aspiration systems — a device that separates dust from the air flow at mining and processing plants and metallurgical conversions. In the classical scheme, the gas is swirled inside the housing, heavy particles are pressed against the walls and discharged through a side slot, and the purified flow exits through a central hole. Previously, these nodes required precise fitting during assembly, created unnecessary flow resistance, and complicated regulatory work.

Engineers at "Taira" have proposed a solution that changes the approach to installation. Latches-fixators have been installed on the housing of the swirler and the clean gas pipe — now the elements are joined to the filter panels quickly and without additional tools. To prevent spontaneous rotation of the nodes under load, the design was supplemented with hexagonal support pads and guide pins. This ensures a stable annular gap for the removal of dusty air and reduces the risk of depressurization.

The modification reduces equipment setup time and reduces aerodynamic losses in the system. The technology does not require the replacement of existing filters — the updated cyclone is integrated into existing lines. The solution is already ready for implementation at enterprises where primary gas purification affects the efficiency of the main processes and environmental performance.
