SEPAX separator

Smart, simple, space


saving design
Key benefits
- High efficiency separation
- Highly effective nibs extraction minimises clogging of
mill grates, thus enabling
long-lasting full mill capacity
- Low operating costs

Low initial costs


- Self-supporting structure
- Standard range drive parts
- One feed point in low position

Flexible and versatile


- Adaptable to:
- All cement grinding ball
mill systems
- Fully or semi air-swept
raw grinding ball mills
- Flash driers

Low maintenance costs


- Optimum wear protection
- Automatic grease lubrication
system
- Easy access for maintenance

The high efficiency separator improves


the mill performance by avoiding over
grinding of the material, and gives the
required product fineness by efficiently
separating the course particles from the
fine particles. Decades of know-how in
high-efficiency separation enables
FLSmidth to supply the most suitable
separator for almost any application.
Low initial costs
The simple and space-saving design
of the SEPAX makes it an economical

investment. The separator is fitted


within a self-supporting shell structure,
and the entire separator unit with cyclones is supported by one ring-shaped
support only. Reducer and motor are
placed in line with the bearing housing,
forming a compact and rigid drive-line
unit. Finally, the SEPAX has one feed
point placed at a low level, minimising
the height of the separator feed
elevator and simplifying the layout.

Maximum efficiency

The SEPAX is very efficient in operation


and cuts specific energy consumption
to a minimum, while maintaining
maximum output. A highly effective
system for removal of worn grinding
media from the mill discharge material
means less clogging of diaphragms.
This optimises mill performance and
enables long-term, continuous operation.

Flexible and versatile


The SEPAX is designed to be equipped
with drives ranging from low power
drives for raw grinding to powerful
drives for the finest grinding while still
utilising the full design air flow. This
ensures maximum efficiency regardless
of the end product quality specified.

Dedusting

The SEPAX can be equipped with separator-supported cyclones or stand-alone


cyclones for the collection of fines.
The feed concept is based on the material being suspended in the vertical air
flow through the riser duct. This makes
the SEPAX highly adaptable to various
raw grinding applications. Consequently,
the separator can be integrated into
the mill venting system, in the case of
fully or semi air-swept mills, or installed
on top of a flash dryer that forms the
riser duct leading up to the SEPAX.

Low maintenance costs


The SEPAX is designed to be easily
serviceable. Worn and broken grinding
media are not recycled, which helps to
save maintenance work on the mill
grate plates. The removal of nibs from
the separator feed reduces the wear on
critical separator parts. Easily accessible
and serviceable wear protection is
fitted where appropriate, and the
bearing unit can easily be replaced.

Wear protection

Densit Wearcast 2000


The material is a 30 mm thick cement
bound composition containing 55%
hard (9 Mohs) grains of corundum
(Al2O3). Densit Wearcast is easy to
install and repair. It has been tested to
outlast basalt by a factor of 1.3 when
exposed to sandblasting at various
inclinations.
Hardox 400
This is a world-known, abrasionresistant, weldable steel plate, which
is throughhardened to more than 360
HB and is recognised for its superior
abrasion resistance properties.
Chromium compound
wear plate
This material is a mild steel plate with a
thickness of 4 to 8 mm, onto which a
4 - 5 mm layer of hardfacing is welded.
The hardfacing consists of primary
chromium carbides in a eutectic matrix
with eutectic chromium carbides.
The hardness of the matrix reaches
600-750 HV, the grains 1400 HV.
The temperature limit is 400 deg C.
High carbon steel
This is a low cost and highly versatile
material which is used in places where
moderate wear occurs.
