Cyclone Separators for Paper, Steel, Wood, Grain, and Plastics Facilities
Every cyclone is engineered around your facility’s actual dust characteristics and production volume so the system works on day one and keeps working without constant attention from your maintenance crew. We do not sell catalog units and hope they fit. We build what your facility actually needs.
Key Highlights:
- Centrifugal separation engineered for your specific particle size and dust load
- Custom-fabricated in carbon, galvanized, or stainless steel construction
- Available as standalone collectors or pre-separators paired with baghouse filtration
How Does a Custom Cyclone Separator Reduce Downtime and Maintenance Costs?
Standard cyclone separators force your facility to adapt to the equipment. When particle size, velocity, or material abrasiveness fall outside the unit’s design range, you get clogged outlets, excessive wear, and downstream filters that burn through bags in weeks instead of months.
- Inlet geometry and cone dimensions calculated for your particle size and airflow
- Abrasion-resistant construction for high-velocity steel, wood, and abrasive material applications
- Pre-separation that extends downstream baghouse filter life by reducing particulate loading
Why Choose Environmental Pneumatics for Cyclone Separator Systems?
Environmental Pneumatics visits your facility, evaluates your dust problem, and engineers a cyclone system that fits your plant layout and production demands. Our team designs, fabricates, and installs complete systems across the Midwest and Southeast and services what we build.
- On-site engineering assesses dust characteristics and layout before any design begins
- Custom fabrication to your specifications, not modified catalog units forced to fit
- Material recovery integration that turns compliance costs into a revenue stream
Start With a Site Evaluation
Most dust and scrap problems are visible to a trained eye. The issue is that most vendors never bother to look — they quote from a desk and ship a catalog product.
Our engineers come to you. Walk the floor with you. And tell you exactly what they see.
- On-site visit at your facility
- Dust source, airflow & scrap recovery gap analysis
- Compliance exposure review (OSHA / NFPA / EPA)
- Written summary of findings — no obligation

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a cyclone separator and a baghouse?
A cyclone uses centrifugal force to remove larger particles from the airstream, while a baghouse uses fabric filters for finer particulates, and many facilities pair cyclones as pre-separators upstream of a baghouse to extend filter life.
How do I know what size cyclone separator my facility needs?
Proper sizing depends on your airflow volume, particle size distribution, material density, and duct velocity, which Environmental Pneumatics calculates through on-site evaluation rather than defaulting to an oversized standard unit.
Can a cyclone separator help my facility meet EPA dust emission requirements?
Cyclone separators capture medium-to-coarse particulates and, when paired with downstream filtration, form a complete dust collection system that supports EPA compliance for particulate emission limits.
What maintenance does a cyclone separator require?
Cyclones have no moving parts, making them low-maintenance by design, with routine checks limited to inspecting the cleanout door, monitoring wear in abrasive applications, and verifying airflow at the inlet and outlet.
