The hydrocyclone sand washing machine is a critical component in modern aggregate processing plants, designed to remove impurities and improve sand quality. Its compact structure and high efficiency make it ideal for both stationary and mobile crushing-screening-washing lines.
– Working Principle: Utilizes centrifugal force to separate fine particles (<75μm) from sand.
– Capacity: 50–200 t/h (model-dependent).
– Power: 5.5–22 kW motor.
– Water Consumption: 30–100 m³/h (recyclable).
– Material: Wear-resistant polyurethane or rubber lining.
| Model | Inlet Size (mm) | Max Feed Size (mm) | Weight (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| FX250 | 250 | 10 | 1,200 |
| FX350 | 350 | 15 | 1,800 |
| FX500 | 500 | 20 | 2,500 |

Integrated after vibrating screens or sand makers, hydrocyclones ensure final product cleanliness (≤3% silt content). They complement jaw crushers, cone crushers, and VSI crushers in producing high-quality concrete/asphalt aggregates.
Q: How to reduce water usage?
A: Implement closed-loop water systems with settling ponds.
Q: Common maintenance points?
A: Regularly check liners and inlet/outlet pipes for wear.
Q: Can it handle recycled concrete aggregates?
A: Yes, but pre-screening (>5mm) is recommended to avoid clogging.

A 200tph sand plant achieved ≤1% silt content using FX350 hydrocyclones paired with a VSI crusher, reducing freshwater demand by 40% through water recycling.
