Abstract
Apparatus for segregation of fibers from a suspension which contains relatively heavy contaminants has two elongated parallel but not coaxial horizontal vessels which are welded or strapped together and one of which is located below the other. One end of the lower vessel is connected with a pipe which admits the suspension and the other end of the upper vessel is connected with a pipe for evacuation of segregated fibers. The vessels have openings for portions of at least one row of discrete centrifugal separators each having a tangential inlet for suspension which communicates with the first vessel, an upwardly extending first outlet which discharges fibers into the upper vessel, and a downwardly extending second outlet for impurities. Each separator is detachable from and reattachable to both vessels.
