4 Inch Hydro Cyclone Oilfield Drilling Mud Desilter

Oilfield Drilling Mud Desilter Is Mainly Used In Oil Drilling Fields, All Spare Parts Are Available At Aipu

Under fluid shale shaker:

For a better separation result, many users will choose an under fluid shale shaker under desilter hydrocyclone assembly.

Solids phase discharged from desilter cyclone can be further separated by shale shaker. Useful mud falls into the tank for recycling.

Hydrocyclone Assy:

4’’ hydrocyclone is most widely used for desilter in the oil & gas drilling field. And quantity can customize per client's requirements, vary from 4 each to 24 each.

Technical parameters of APCN oilfield drilling desilter

Application of oilfield drilling desilter

APCN series desilter is the third phase solids control equipment in a well-drilling mud system

Oilfield desilter separators are one of the important equipment for controlling the solids in the drilling fluid. The action is to remove the harmful solids, promote the drill fluid performance, and separate 15～47 μm solids particles accounting for over 60% of solids quantity. When the quick drilling is made in the soft formation, the shale shaker only can remove large solids particles, but the Hydrocylone Desilter separators can remove fine solids particles, fully promoting the solid's control efficiency. Therefore, it is especially suitable for the well site where the formation is considerably hard and the drilling speed is slower so that the cuttings are very fine in particle size.
As a different treating capacity, you can choose the number of cyclones. Normally speaking, 8 no. of the cyclone is available, and you can choose 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 according to your requirement.

Please check the above technical parameters for your reference. And some configuration is customizable. For any question or demand, just feel free to contact AIPU solids. You will get a professional proposal very soon.

Oilfield drilling mud desilter configuration

Oilfield Desilter is the third phase solids control equipment after shale shaker and desander equipment. It is made by desilter cyclone, inlet and outlet pipeline, steel frame, and shale shaker for bottom drying. 

The desilter is mainly treat drilling mud by desilter cyclone by centrifugal force. It popularly uses 4” desilter cyclone for separate solids 15 – 25 microns and above, the majority larger solids particles were separated by centrifugal force and drop out from desilter nozzle and fluids content overflow from the top outlet and discharge to tank compartment. There maybe a set of shale shakers on the bottom of the desilter cyclone, it is installed in finner mesh screen for drying solids particles out of the cyclone. The mesh size chooses from API 140 to API 325 depending on the drilling requirement. The desilter mud flow can be 500GPM to 1500GPM depending on cyclone quantity.
