Eriez Wet Drum Separators are designed and ruggedly built for long, hard service – but certain installation, operating and maintenance procedures must be observed.
General Description Installation HMDA Wet Drum Separators are designed primarily GENERAL for use in heavy media system recovery circuits Use care when lifting the separator to avoid damage to the equipment. for recovery of magnetite or ferrosilicon. They are designed to be fed a slurry or “pulp” of finely divided particles suspended in water.
Installation Tank And Frame Adjustment The tank and frame assembly should be checked ADJUSTMENTS across the width and length to make sure it is level. Magnet Adjustment If not, shims should be placed between the frame The drum and magnet positions are set at the factory pads and supporting foundation.
An external water level overflow weir is provided The magnet setting as described above should result on HMDA Models. A proper water level can be in a satisfactory point of discharge; however, slight maintained when water is overflowing the weir...
It is very important in this type of separator that the and maintenance. proper water level be maintained. Overflow volume The Eriez Self-Leveling tank has no discharge should be from 40% to 50% of total tailings flow. Feed spigots to adjust. The tank level is controlled by to the separator must remain constant to insure proper removable weir bars on the discharge side of the tank.
