Coal Spiral Test Units

Coal spiral test units, available from Multotec, consists of the MX7 or SX7 spirals, which are designed to be two stages in one and are capable of processing 36 tons of coal per hour to the spirals.

Pumps and sumps can be operated using generators and are fitted with variable speed drives that can operate at 380 C or 525 V. Each plant can be transported to any location, using only two 12-metre containers and the plant’s design enables it to stand on a level concrete pad or compacted surface.

Benefits of Coal Spiral Test Units:

  • Stand-alone units which can be skid mounted
  • Easily erected on-site, easily moved and re-erected
  • Three primary modules
  • ‘Plug and Play’ capability
  • Optional extras include samplers and process flow meters

Multotec offers commissioning and installation for coal spiral test units as well as consultation services and test work on spiral concentrators at our R&D facilities or at plant sites.
