Hyflo Centrifugal<br />
Separators<br />
The Hyflo<br />
separator<br />
has no<br />
moving<br />
parts or filter<br />
media. It is<br />
a precisely<br />
engineered<br />
vessel<br />
through<br />
which the<br />
system<br />
liquid passes<br />
and is cleaned by generating<br />
maximum centrifugal force.<br />
Hyflo separators have a unique<br />
The Hyflo separator is installed<br />
full-flow entry chamber without<br />
any baffles or slots which can clog<br />
and result in frequent<br />
maintenance.<br />
in a vertical position to allow<br />

More efficient than most<br />
strainers, a Hyflo separator will<br />
remove particles 45 microns in<br />
size, which is the equivalent of a<br />
325 mesh strainer, and heavier<br />
than 1.20 specific gravity. It is<br />
impractical to install a strainer of<br />
this quality as it would create a<br />
large pressure drop and require<br />
frequent cleaning.<br />
The rate of separation depends<br />
on the size and the amount of<br />
the particles being removed.<br />
Independent tests have shown<br />
Hyflo separators can remove<br />
169.25 cubic centimetres of #60<br />
grade of sand in 15 minutes from<br />
six deciliters of water.<br />

Branching out<br />
The <strong>Tradelink</strong> network has<br />
never been stronger or more<br />
reliable, helping you when<br />
you need it the most.<br />
With new branches now open in<br />
Gunnedah, NSW and Melton,<br />
VIC, relocations in Mitcham<br />
and Ferntree Gully, VIC,<br />
and upgraded Showrooms in<br />
Broadmeadow and Maitland,<br />
NSW, the Branch Development<br />
team has been working hard.<br />

Removal Capability<br />
A Hyflo separator is much more efficient than most<br />
strainers as it will remove particles 45 microns in size<br />
(or the equivalent of a 325 mesh strainer) and heavier<br />
than 1.20 specific gravity. A strainer of this quality<br />
would create a large pressure drop, require frequent<br />
cleaning and be very expensive to purchase and install.<br />
A Hyflo separator continuously removes debris from<br />
water. The "rate of separation" depends on the size<br />
and amount of particles being removed. Hyflo has<br />
independent tests which show that 169.15 cubic<br />
centimetres of #60 grade sand was removed in 15<br />
minutes from 60 litres of water.<br />
The next addition to our network<br />
will be a Trade Counter and<br />
Showroom in Eastwood, NSW.<br />
The site has been in development<br />
and planning for some time, and<br />
is looking to be a great location.<br />
At this stage doors are expected<br />
to be open for trade mid-late May.<br />
Low Pressure Drop<br />
Hyflo separators operate efficiently with a pressure<br />
drop of 3 to 10 psi. (21 to 69 kPaD).<br />
Cost-Effective Installation.<br />
Standard pipe sizes and fittings mate directly to new<br />
and existing systems.<br />
How it Works<br />
The Hyflo separator has no moving parts or filter<br />
media. It is a precisely engineered vessel through<br />
which the system liquid passes and is cleaned by<br />
Remaining in the state of New<br />
South Wales, Parramatta will be<br />
relocating to a larger building in<br />
May. The site will not only have a<br />
state of the art Trade Counter, but<br />
also include a mid size Bathroom<br />
Showroom.<br />
generating maximum centrifugal force.<br />
The Hyflo separator is installed in a vertical position to<br />
allow full gravitational force to quickly pull the solids<br />
downward past the spin/trap plate and into the holding<br />
chamber.<br />

Unfortunately, our Singleton<br />
branch is no longer open,<br />
however the teams at Maitland<br />
and Muswellbrook will be<br />
happy to service the area.<br />
In Victoria, the Warrnambool<br />
Showroom renovations are<br />
expected to be complete by<br />
mid April. The highly anticipated<br />
upgrade will bring the Showroom<br />
in line with some of the country’s<br />
best, with modern fittings and<br />
new layout.<br />
Finally, to tie in with the cover<br />
story, it is expected that 40<br />
Bathroom Showrooms<br />
Australia wide will undergo a<br />
Kohler upgrade by June 30.<br />
This means our showrooms will<br />
display more Kohler products,<br />
along with in situ bathroom<br />
displays and merchandising.<br />
