The air classifier laboratory offers a full range of separation options with a high degree of accuracy in scaling for full size models. The laboratory offers testing facilities suitable for dry separations from 1.4 mm (12#) down to 10 μm (#1250). 

Testing can be conducted with the gravitational, gravitational inertial, centrifugal and cyclonic classifiers dependent on the separations required. Testing is simple and straightforward to conduct and we welcome visitors to observe testing. 

For accurate testing, samples need to be representative of the proposed feed. Fresh samples should be taken from conveyors and not from stockpiles. 

Once sampled, the samples need to be sealed so the site moisture level is retained. Samples are normally sent in barrels or buckets to the test laboratory. 

The moisture level in the sampled feed should also be noted to ensure that there is no change during shipment.
