[0002] In the flotation process, the pulp concentration has a significant impact on the grade and recovery rate of the product concentrate, as well as on reagent consumption and water and electricity consumption. If the pulp concentration is too high, the mineral particles and bubbles cannot flow freely, which will damage the aeration conditions of the flotation machine, reduce the ore selectivity, and reduce the quality of the concentrate product. In addition, if the pulp concentration is too high, it will cause a decrease in the efficiency of the hydrocyclone classification, resulting in insufficient liberation of ore monomers, a decrease in flotation recovery rate, and a waste of resources.

A columnar support is installed at the lower end of the concentration box. A weighing scale is provided below the columnar support.

[0007] Preferably, the concentration box is also equipped with a second backwash solenoid valve.
