Cleaning

Kadant’s stock cleaning systems provide high efficiency removal of contaminants in pulp slurries. Cleaning involves converting pressure into high velocity using specially-designed cyclonic separators. The stock is introduced to the cone tangentially and forced to rotate at high speed resulting in high centrifugal forces that separate the fiber from contaminants based on density and shape differences.

Liquid Cyclone™ Cleaner

A free vortex separator designed for efficient removal of contaminants from all types of applications including OCC coarse screen, refiner, and deflaking protection in a broke system. Available in a wide range of sizes and configurations with a low maintenance, non-plugging design for continuous or intermittent operation.

XCEL™ 150 Fine Forward Cleaner

The XCEL 150 is a high-efficiency sand and grit removal system setup in custom banks to optimize fine cleaning. Centrifugal force causes water and heavy debris such as grit, glass, sand, pins, staples, gravel, dirt, metal, abrasives, and other small heavy objects to move to the outer wall and spiral to the bottom of the unit for removal.
