AlfaLaval centrifuge It is a common rotating equipment, mainly used to separate solid liquid or liquid liquid mixture into different components. Its working principle is to separate substances by centrifugal force.

The main components of a centrifuge include a motor, a centrifugal casing and a centrifuge disc, each of which has a specific function.

First, the motor is the driving force source of the centrifuge, which generates centrifugal force by driving the rotation of the centrifuge disc. Generally, electric energy or pneumatic energy is used for the motor, and its power is determined according to the nature of the materials to be processed and the size of the processing capacity.

Secondly, the centrifuge casing is the surrounding layer of the centrifuge disc, which can protect and support the centrifuge disc, and can also adjust the operating parameters of the centrifuge, such as speed, temperature and pressure.

Most importantly, the centrifuge disc is the core component of the centrifuge, and also the key to realize solid-liquid or liquid-liquid separation. Alfa Laval The centrifuge disc is composed of a series of rotating discs, which have gaps between them, forming a series of circular separation units. There are feed pipes and discharge pipes on the centrifuge plate, through which the materials to be separated are input into the centrifuge and different components are taken out respectively.

The working process of the centrifuge can be divided into the following steps:

Feed: the materials to be separated are fed into the centrifuge through the feed pipe and into the centrifuge disk.

Rotation: the motor drives the centrifuge disc to rotate at high speed, forming centrifugal force. The centrifugal force depends on the rotating speed of the centrifuge and the radius of the centrifuge disc.

Separation: due to the centrifugal force, the material is separated in the centrifuge disc. Depending on the nature and density of the material, WANNER Different components delaminate inside the centrifuge disc. Heavy materials will be pushed to the outside of the centrifuge disc to form a solid precipitation layer; The light materials will gather inside the centrifuge disc to form a liquid layer.

Slag discharge: the solid particles in the solid sediment layer are called dregs and need to be removed regularly. The centrifuge is usually equipped with an automatic slag removal system, which can regularly discharge the dregs in the solid sediment layer from the centrifuge.

Liquid drainage: The liquid component in the liquid layer is called clarified liquid, and it also needs to be taken out regularly. The centrifuge is usually equipped with a discharge pipe, which can discharge the clarified liquid from the centrifuge.

Through the above steps, the centrifuge can separate the solid liquid or liquid liquid mixture into different components, realizing the separation effect.

Alfa Laval centrifuge has a wide range of applications, including chemical, pharmaceutical, food, environmental protection and other industries. It is efficient WANNER Authorized Agent It can quickly separate materials, improve product purity and output, and is easy to operate and maintain, with high reliability and stability. These characteristics make Alfa Laval centrifuge one of the important equipment in many industrial fields.
