Hydrocyclone is a taper container with cylinder parts, the upper part cylinder part of taper is into mud chamber; outside set a tangential mud inlet; the taper down part is opened whose diameter can adjust, used to solid phase particles discharged. The closed upright cylinder top part center have a overflow pipe of insert down and extend to below of inlet mud tangent line location. The structure made of cylinder, conical barrel, inlet pipe, overflow pipe, precipitate pipe and ect

Cylinder: its inner diameter shows the intended size of the hydrocyclone.

Conical barrel: it has the separation affect, the taper angle usually is 15º- 20º.

Inlet pipelineDrilling fluid enter into hydrocyclone from it. In order to improve the state motion of hydrocyclone, improve separation efficiency. The depth should stretch to the cone location.

Overflow pipeline: The processed drilling fluid return to drilling fluid circulation system from overflow, in order to prevent drilling fluid overflow in cylinder, the depth should stretch to the cone location.

Precipitate pipe line: The eliminated solid phase particles and little fluid discharged from precipitate pipe line. In order to improve the bottom flow of hydrocyclone and improve separation efficiency, the bottom flow mouth diameter of precipitate pipe can be adjusted.

Usually the shell of hydrocyclone manufactured with cast iron. In order to improve the wear resisting property, the inner all use wear resisting rubber. In order to further improve its service life, some whole shell adopt polyurethane material, not only wear resistance but also corrosion resisting. To big size hydrocyclone, the shell use aluminium alloy, inner lining polyurethane, it can pledge shell have enough strength and decrease the weight.

The use and maintenance of the drilling fluid mud cleaner

1 The method of use

The correct install and use of the multifunction cyclone mud cleaner can rid of the harmful solid phase effectively in the drilling fluid, control the viscosity, recover the useful solid phase, it has important significance to extend the life time of the mud cleaner and reduce the labor intensity of the field workers.

(1)The multifunction cyclone is installed behind the shale shaker and above the one and two drilling fluid tanks.

(2) The drilling fluid which into the mud cleaner must processed by the shale shaker.

(3) Plugged, after the motor starting, the direction of rotation of the motor and the direction of the sign of belt cover must be consistent.

(4) Firstly, air transportation the rotating shale shaker, then check up it, if found has unusual noise, we should stop to overhaul.

(5) Tightenting the screen, pressuring the spiral, testing pressure the screen by hand, then test running 2-3min, the screen should not have separate oneself from the strip, then appropriate pressure the spirals, inspecting the each tensioning spring, the length should be basically same.

(6) In the process of the using screen, if we need to clean the cumulative sand on the screen, we can’t use spade to sweep the screen.

(7) we should wash the screen at least per shift, prevent the viscous things or sand on the screen are maybe blocked the mesh, influence the screen normal use.

(8)When stop to use it , we should closed sand pump firstly, keep the shale shaker rotating 3-5min and wash the screen in time to keep the screen clean, the closed the shale shaker.

(9)we should Infusing butter on the bearing of the exciter once a day at least.

(10)In the process of transportation or lifting, we can’t put the hard things on the screen or trample by foot.

(11)preventing the sundry enter into the swirler.

(12)we should often wash the discharge grove and the baseboard of the shale shaker.

(13)according the stratum and the property of drilling fluid to select the screen, if the viscosity is high and the sediment concentration is big, we should select the less mesh screen.

(14) The use method of the discharge pipes

the use of the cyclone tube; when the feed liquid pressure equal to the rated pressure, turn off the valve on the overflow tube, make the tubular value of the overflow pipe is 0.01-0.03mpa. When the feed pressure below the rated pressure, adjust the valve on the overflow , make the tubular value of the overflow pipe is .0.02-0.05mpa,

maintenance

usually, it operate 500h we should maintain it, the main part are rotating part, tensioning the firmware and replace part of lose efficacy components.

It operate 4000h, it need to overhaul, the main content is maintenance the cleaner all sided, replace the cone, check the insulation of the electrical machine , lubrication or tensioning all parts, at last we should paint the anticorrosion treatment.
