Centrifugal Separation

Centrifugal Separation

Product catalog summary
Applications:
  • Pharmaceutical: Antibiotics production in broths.
  • Food Processing: Separation and conditioning of food oils.
  • Nutraceuticals: Separation and extraction processes.
  • Mining: Solvent recovery and metal extraction.
  • Petroleum: Crude oil separation from process water and dehydration.
  • Environmental: Separation of contaminated groundwater.
  • Biofuels: Concentration of algae cells.
How It Works:

The centrifugal separator operates by feeding a component mixture into the rotor, where separation occurs due to centrifugal force. Heavier fluids are forced to the rotor wall and exit through the heavy phase outlet, while lighter fluids accumulate and exit through the lighter phase outlet.

Specifications:
  • Flexible design suitable for variable inputs and flow rates.
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel components, suitable for CIP and autoclavable.
  • Interchangeable weirs for broad applications in research, pilot plant, or production operations.
  • Processes liquids with specific gravity differences of 0.05 or better and immiscible droplet sizes up to 10 µm.
Accessories and Spare Parts:
  • Various diameter weirs available for different viscosity liquids.
  • Spare parts kit includes common wear parts.
Additional Information:

The system includes a centrifugal chamber, electric motor with variable speed controller, high- and low-mix bottom plates, ten weirs, and a CD-ROM with software and maintenance guide. Explosion-proof motors come with additional safety features.

Centrifugal Separation-1

Need help selecting? Free Tech Support! Separators / Extractors Centrifugal Multipurpose Separator/Extractors Applications - Pharmaceutical—antibiotics made in broths - Food processing—food oil separation and conditioning - Nutraceuticals—separation and extraction - Mining—solvent recovery and extraction of metals - Petroleum—crude oil from process water, dehydration, acid flowback - Environmental—contaminated ground water separation - Biofuels—algae cell concentration See our “Fittings” section on pages 301-342 to tailor your system’s connections. For systems using Masterflex peristaltic pumps, we recommend the couplings 06349-02 along with the barbed 30621-56 fittings to connect tubing to the separator. A free CD-ROM (item 00100-17) is available outlining the application possibilities of these units; we also offer a fully functional demonstration unit for trial. Contact your local dealer for details. What’s included: centrifugal chamber, Vs-hp electric motor with variable speed controller, high- and low-mix bottom plates plus ten weirs (ranging 0.825" to 1.050" dia; 20.95 to 26.67 mm), and a CD-ROM including weir selection software, dynamic-image instruction package, and maintenance guide. Explosion-proof motors add a 50-ft (15.2-m) power cable and a hazardous environment multipin connector. Throughput*: 1900 mL/min (114 L/hour) Fittings: 3/8" NPT(M) Dimensions (W x H x D): 9" x 25" x 9" (22.8 x 63.5 x 22.8 cm) r Specifications- Wetted parts Housing: 316 L stainless steel O-rings: PTFE Rotor head and sleeve O-rings: PTFE-encapsulated Viton® ^Larger units with throughput up to 200 GPM are available. *Motor meets all Class I Div 2 Group D requirements; enclosure is NEMA 4X. The component mixture (green) is fed through the inlet and fills the annular zone leading to the rotor. The alternate inlet accepts reagents and additives for flow into the same rotor chamber. As the mixture enters the rotor, it is forced to the rotor’s wall. Separation occurs as the fluid level rises in the rotor with the heavier fluid (blue) separating from the mixture (green). The accumulation of the heavier component forces it over the weir and through the heavy phase outlet. The lighter fluid (yellow) continues to accumulate to a level where it passes into the lighter phase outlet. Accessories Weirs are available in various diameters. Use the large-diameter weirs in applications with high-viscosity liquids. Spare Parts Kit contains common wear parts.
