The manual clean design consists of a rotating chamber belt
driven by a motor. Internal to the rotor is an easily removable
liner for sludge removal. Process liquid is pumped or gravity
fed through the centrifuge rotor. Accelerated by the vanes attached
to the rotor cover, fluid fills the rotor where it is exposed
to the centrifugal force field. Materials heavier than the process
liquid are forced to the perimeter of the rotor where they accumulate
until manual cleaning is performed. Clarified process liquid overflows
through the opening in the top of the rotor and drains by gravity
back to the process.
Cleaning of the rotor is quite simple. The drive
motor is stopped, the cabinet door is opened, and the liner removed
from the rotor body for cleaning. The cleaned liner is put back
in position and the drive motor restarted. The entire operation
takes just a few minutes. No consumable media is used to clarify
the process liquid and the rotor liners are designed for years
of continuous service.
Rugged and reliable, there is no more cost effective
industrial centrifuge available on the market today.
