In a high end spinner/spinfloat (continuous type that does not rely on screen, perforated drum or baskets of cappings), do the pollen grains tend to end up in the honey or wax output?

In the case of the Maxant 7000, the incoming slurry drops into the spinning 'donut' in the honey zone.  Bits of wax migrate inward to the wax zone.  Clean honey is drawn off from the bottom outside edge of the spinning drum.  My hope is that virtually all of the pollen grains exit with the honey.
