Patent number: 10625192Abstract: A vacuum installation includes a vacuum chamber having an inlet for aspirating a quantity of liquid or particulate material. A cyclone separation unit having a plurality of cyclones, communicating in parallel with the interior of the vacuum chamber is connected to a vacuum pump to draw air from the vacuum chamber through the cyclones and induce a separating vortex flow within the cyclones. A controller is arranged to control the vacuum pump to provide a chosen flow rate and to selectively deactivate one or more of the cyclones according to the chosen flow rate.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2018Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: Koks Group B.V.Inventor: Nic Spierdijk
