What Are Desilter and Desander

Mar 19, 2014

Desilter and desander are used to process large volumes of drilling fluid to remove abrasive sands and silts that shale shakers cannot remove.

KOSUN's desilting and desanding hydrocyclones are made from high density abrasion resistant polyurethane. The unique internal manifold design minimises the back pressure on hydrocyclones and maximises the solids removal. Fine tuning is achieved through adjustable orifice openings at the discharge point on the cone.

Both desilter and desander are available in a large range of configurations including standing alone, over a shaker as a mud cleaner or packaged with a supply pump as a mobile desilting unit. Please contact your nearest KOSUN office to discuss about applications and appropriate technical specifications.
