<p>A splitter assembly is described of the type wherein a pulp stream is discharged from the discharge edge of a stratification surface across a gap to impinge against a splitter so as to separate into upper and lower flow components, the lower component passing through the gap while the upper component flows over the splitter, characterized in that the splitter has a generally curved impingement surface and is adjustable relative to the stratification surface such that the gap width in the direction of stream flow increases as the required lower flow component increases and decreases as the required lower flow component decreases. Preferably, the splitter is hingedly mounted for rotation relative to the stratification surface.</p> |
