Abstract
A hydrocyclone separator for classifying solid material in liquid suspension is disclosed. The hydrocyclone separator comprises a head part having an inlet conduit, a conically tapered separation part, an adjustable apex discharge port, and a tail pipe. According to the invention the adjustable apex discharge port comprises an abrasive-resistant resilient body in which an apex orifice port is arranged, and an adjustment sleeve configured to circumferentially enclose the resilient body, which sleeve has a tapered conical surface configured to abut an outer surface of the resilient body, and which sleeve is arranged for axial displacement to thereby vary the size of the apex orifice port.
