Horizontal Peeler Centrifuge operates on the principle of centrifugal force to separate solids from liquids by density difference. The high rotation speed provides high centrifugal force that allows the suspended solid in feed to settle on the inner surface of drum. The washing processes are performed at the same rotational speed and in same centrifuge vessel.
The unique feature of Peeler Centrifuge Horizontal Peeler Centrifuge is the constant basket speed which allows all operations like feeding drying discharging to be carried out at full basket speed.
Rotofilt Peeler centrifuges are offered both in the batch and continuous centrifuge processes. This process are determined to achieve maximum removal of solid from liquid that may be required to be as pure as possible and not be easily separated by differences their densities.
Features:
Gas-tight up to 0.04 bar overpressure, or Labyrinth shaft seal
Automatic heel cake adjustment
Oil-lubricated bearings
Solids discharge by chute or by screw conveyor
Drive: electric motor and V-belts, or with hydraulic drive with variable or constant speed
Automatic and manual operation with either microprocessor or pneumatic controller
Explosion proofing and safety devices
Separation of Drive area / Process area
Removal of shaft from the rear
Easy cloth changing
Through wall construction
Application:
Horizontal peeler Centrifuges are successfully used in Food Stuff, Pharmaceutical, Plastic, Organic & Inorganic Chemicals Industry for separating solids from solid liquid slurry with 5 to 50% solids contents and particle size ranging from 2 microns to 10 mm. Products which are difficult to filter or decant can be easily separated using Peeler centrifuge
The unique feature of Horizontal Peeler Centrifuge is the constant basket speed i.e. all operations like feeding, drying discharging etc. are carried out at full-basket-speed. The sequence of Operations can be (either semi or fully automatically) controlled by Electro-hydraulic control panel / PLC controller.
Working Principle:
Batch operation
Fixed or variable speed
Feed controlled by filling valve
Filling by gravity or pump
Basket filling monitored by filling level controller
Intensive cake washing is possible with a variety of fluids
Cake removal by hydraulically powered scraper over full basket width
Standard machines:
Contact parts in stainless steel / coated or contact parts with non-coatable parts in Hastelloy C Other materials on request
