Centrifuges opening bowl centrifuge

In a manual design, the bowl is one piece and the system must be stopped and opened up to discharge the collected solids. In a continuous operation, such as a wall-valve-discharge centrifuge, the bowl is made of two cones, a top and a bottom, which periodically separate to release the solids at full rotational speed. [Pg.572]

Alfa Laval-Sharples also manufacture the AS-26SP tubular bowl centrifuge. The AS-26SP has all the features of the AS-16VB but in addition the drive shaft is sealed with a triple mechanical seal. This centrifuge can be steam sterilised before and after operation without opening it to the atmosphere. The manufacturers claim that these... [Pg.156]

The most common of the continuous-flow centrifuges are the industrial or pilot plant open bowl units. Some of these centrifuges are over twenty years old but are still quite serviceable. Their drives operate on air or steam turbines, or by electric motors. Many units have refrigeration coils in the bowl to keep the product cool during centrifuging. The process... [Pg.18]

Variable-speed basket centrifuges rotate on a vertical axis. The cyhndrical perforated basket, connected at one end to a bowl head or hub, is driven from below or suspended from above by a driveshaft. It is capped at the other end with a weir ring. The hub may be a solid piece or with an annular opening. If the hub is a sohd piece, the shiny is introduced into the basket at low speed despite the fact that the earths gravity may influence the annular pool. The settled sohds can be removed from the top only when the machine is at rest. Otherwise,... [Pg.1735]

Another type of disc centrifuge has nozzles or orifices at the periphery where thickened solids are discharged continuously, and sometimes a fraction of this discharge is recycled to ensure that the nozzles are able to prevent breakthrough of the clarified supernatant liquid. Sometimes these nozzles are internally fitted to the bowl. Others are opened and closed electrically or hydrostatically from a build up of the sludge within the bowl. [Pg.494]
