A cyclone separator has an operative clearing member such as an elongated rod for clearing obstructions in a passage or inlet or outlet section of the cyclone, especially the vortex finder outlet and apex outlet. The elongated rod is disposed outside the cyclone during the normal period of separation and means are provided to insert it, for example through the vortex finder and thereafter through the apex outlet, from outside the cyclone when a clearing action is initiated. |
