Heavy Mineral Spiral Test Units
Heavy minerals spiral test units from Multotec comprises of four spiral stages and is capable of processing up to 20 tons of solids per hour. Generators and variable speed drives can be used to operate the pumps and sumps, working between 380 V or 525 V. When in transit, the test unit’s stability is maintained through support braces and dedicated lock-out switches for each pump.
Benefits of Mineral Spiral Test Units:
- Three primary modules allow for easy onsite assembly for increased uptime
- Versatility allows the flow sheet to be adapted to suit specific applications
- Easy to move and re-assemble
- ‘Plug and Play’ capability
- Stand-alone units can be skid mounted
Enhance your mineral processing efficiency with Multotec.
