The Computer Controlled Hydrocyclone Unit, "PHCC", designed by EDIBON, allows the complete study of the solid-liquid separation process by centrifugal action. This laboratory unit accurately reproduces the operating conditions of hydrocyclones used in water treatment, mining, petrochemical, or food industries, providing an educational and research tool for analyzing hydraulic efficiency and particle distribution. The process begins in a main tank where the suspension of solids in water is prepared. A stirrer, computer-controlled, keeps the mixture homogeneous to prevent the sedimentation of dense particles. A hydraulic pump, also controlled by software, drives the fluid toward the hydrocyclone through the feed circuit. The flow rate can be adjusted by means of a valve and a bypass circuit, allowing precise control of operating conditions. At the cyclone inlet, pressure and flow sensors record the main process variables, whose values are monitored in real time through the software. This design allows simultaneous control of the pump and stirrer speeds, ensuring stable and reproducible operation. Inside the hydrocyclone, the centrifugal acceleration generates a high-velocity vorte
