Fields of application

For degumming, neutralization, washing and winterization applications. The machine is designed for 3-phase separation.

It is also used in applications which require low levels of oxygen, due to the machine hermeticity.

Operating principle

The product flows through a feeding tube into the bowl through the inlet (3) and in the ring packing (1), it is divided into two liquid phases -a light phase and a heavy phase. The light liquid phase flows to the center of the bowl where it is discharged by a centripetal pump (5) towards its corresponding outlet (4). The heavy liquid phase is in turn conveyed under pressure through its corresponding outlet (2), regulated by the Centrizoom (6) system. With the help of Centrizoom system, the interface of the disc packing in the bowl can be seamlessly adapted between both liquid phases while the machine is working. The separated solids are collected in the sediment holding space (8), where they are instantly ejected from at periodic intervals through the ports (9). Ejection is generated by a sliding piston (7) hydraulically operated by an operating liquid fed through the piston valve. Ejection cycles are initiated by the control unit.
