Falcon C Series
Operating at up to 300 G's this product range produces a continuous stream of concentrate (or heavies) at mass yields of up to 40%, variable according to application requirements. Fine particle feed slurries are separated into high and low density products without fluidization water. A full range of sizes is available. Principal applications include scavenging and pre-concentrating fine metals and minerals. Maximum recommended particle feed size is 1 mm. Other applications include: - heavy minerals
- iron ore
- suphides
- coal
- tantalum
- base metals - gold, silver, nickel, copper, zinc, lead and tin.
OPERATION The Falcon Model C units are suitable for a wide range of minerals and fine feed applications requiring low to high weight recoveries. Feed stream particles are subjected to gravitational forces of up to 300 G's and are segregated according to effective specific gravity along the smooth spinning rotor wall. The heaviest layers / particles are continuously bled off at a variable controlled rate through a series of unique plane mass flow hoppers and patented throttling nozzles. The continuous discharge Falcon Model C requires no feed interruptions or added process water. The adjustable fraction of heavy particles bled off are effectively de-slimed and partially de-watered. The Falcon Automation Package (AUTOPAC) controls the heavies discharge, rinsing and other operating functions. AUTOPACAUTOPAC'S or "Programmable Automation Controllers" control the operating parameters of Falcon Concentrators. Each parameter is changeable and can be displayed by the user without stopping the machine or learning any special programming techniques. It is also possible to integrate these features into any process control system. View Autopac Specifications
