CLASSIFYING

FJ Series Coanda Jet Classifier

The FJ Series is a Coanda jet classifier for dry powder separation in the 1–200 µm range. Feed particles enter through a high-dispersion nozzle and are separated into fine, medium, and coarse fractions simultaneously — no rotating parts, no contact wear. Throughput scales from 10 to 2700 kg/h across two models, with closed-loop inert gas operation available for reactive or hazardous powder processing.

SPECIFICATIONS

Model Scale Air Flow Throughput
FJ-200 Lab / Pilot 4–7 m³/min 10–150 kg/h
FJ-200 Production 44–88 m³/min 200–2700 kg/h

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

The FJ classifier separates particles using the Coanda effect.

Compressed air accelerates through an inlet nozzle and curves along the Coanda surface inside a sealed classification chamber. Feed powder is dispersed at the nozzle inlet and carried into the curved airstream.

Separation occurs by differential inertia:

  • Fine particles follow the curved airflow path
  • Coarse particles deflect outward

Three particle fractions — fine, medium, and coarse — discharge simultaneously from separate outlets in a single pass. No screen, impeller, or rotating parts are present in the classification zone.

KEY FEATURES

  • No rotating parts in the classification zone → zero mechanical contamination risk
  • Three-stream simultaneous output – fine, medium, and coarse in a single pass
  • Classification range: 1–200 μm | Throughput: 10–2700 kg/h
  • Inert gas closed-loop operation available for oxidation-sensitive or combustible materials
  • Wear-resistant contact surfaces standard for abrasive and hard powder feeds

EXPERIMENT RESULTS

Iron Powder Classification – Target Cut: 22 μm

  • Feed: Fe powder, 20–45 μm, density 4 g/cm³
  • Fine fraction D90 = 18.99–19.65 μm (meets <20 μm target)
  • Coarse fraction D10 = 13.97–14.3 μm, D50 = 28.69–29.68 μm (coarse stream recyclable to feed)

Alumina Classification – Target: D97 ≤ 11.8 μm

  • Feed: Al₂O₃, D50 = 7.05 μm, D97 = 19.06 μm, D100 = 34.26 μm
  • First-pass fine fraction D97 = 7.9–8.3 μm (meets ≤11.8 μm target)
  • Two-pass cascade yields combined product at 10% of total feed weight
