Abstract

A cyclone separator for separating liquid and/or solid particles from a fluid is provided with three or more cyclone cells that each have a cell pipe provided with a guiding device. The guiding devices cause the fluid to rotate and to separate the particles from the fluid by the rotation of the fluid. The cell pipes each have a particle exit opening for letting out the particles that have been separated by rotation from the fluid. One or more particle outlets are provided to discharge from the cyclone separator the particles that have exited from the cell pipes.
