Centrifuge technology for almost all processes for separating products with different density from each other, offers high performance, low cost and fast solutions in almost all technological and industrial areas (more than 2500 applications). This is achieved by efficient solid-liquid separation (solid-liquid or solid-liquid-liquid) in processed products.

A decanter centrifuge is a design consisting of a high-speed rotating drum (sleeve) located along a horizontal axis to apply high centrifugal force (G) necessary to separate solids and liquids, a screw conveyor rotating with the drum, but with a certain difference in speed and drive group providing the necessary power for this rotating hitch.

Maximum performance

The thin drum rotates at a very high speed to provide a high centrifugal force (G) for the highest level of dewatering.

Flexible Configuration

The choice of production materials, wear protection, motor power and torque provide flexible configuration.

HMI and PLC

This allows the decanter to automatically operate in different modes, drain sludge and other process parameters, and monitor warnings.

Special performance for the product

By varying the speed of movement of the solid in the decanter, the desired dryness of the solid is achieved at different loads.

Working principle

The decanter centrifuge uses a method of separating a product into solid-liquid phases by applying a high centrifugal force to the feed product and continuously obtaining these separated phases from different outlets.

The product to be separated is poured through the product feed pipe into the feed chamber in the housing of the screw conveyor rotating at high speed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the mixture from the screw feeding chamber enters the drum and is stratified with a difference in specific gravity relative to the surface of the drum. The heavy phase (solid) settles towards the wall of the drum, while the compressed solid phase is conveyed by the screw from the conical part to the outside, and the separated liquid phase exits the adjustable plates from the end of the drum barrel section. Solids transport is provided by the speed difference (differential speed) between the drum and the screw.

With human machine interface (HMI) and programmable logic control (PLC) in HAUS decanters; decanter centrifuge can operate automatically in various modes, as well as observe warnings and automatically respond to momentary changes that may occur in the process. In this way, instantaneous changes in the process can be overcome without the need for operator intervention, and the product can be produced with the desired characteristics without interrupting and disrupting the process.

HAUS centrifuge decanters are available with a fixed speed drive system, a dual drive system or a hydraulic drive system depending on the needs of the process.

Fixed speed drive system

This is a simpler system compared to others, and its control options are limited. This type of drive system is used in processes where the solids content of the product fed to the decanter is constant and the difference in differential speed does not need to be changed immediately. The constant differential speed difference is provided by the belt pulley mechanism.

Hydraulic drive system

These are systems in which the differential speed can be controlled automatically by hydraulic force instead of a mechanical transmission. In addition to being able to generate high torque, having electrical equipment on the machine is also a solution in case of emergency.
