Applications
The Vertical Basket Centrifuge operate under a discontinuous filtration process and are well suited to the efficient separation of Pharmaceutical products and of fine and bulk chemicals. This type of centrifuge is used with small batch sizes and where products are changed frequently with low process costs i.e. one machine for many products. No crystal breakage, as the peeling is done at reduced speed. They can handle freely and non freely filtering slurries with equal facility.
Typical Products
Atrazine, vegetable extracts, quinine sulphate, hydrazine, antibiotics, citric acid, pentaerythritol etc.
Applications
Amino acids, benzoic acid, benzene, hexachloride, calcium hypo chloride hexachlorocyclohexane insulin, potassium bisulphate, sodium perborate, penicillin, sulphur, starch, etc.
Working Principle
  • Batch operation
  • Variable speeds for filling, spinning, washing and scraping
  • Feed controlled by filling valve through feed pipe or distribution funnel
  • Filling by gravity or pump or by rotating cone to affect gentle acceleration of suspension.
  • Basket filling monitored by filling level controller
  • Intensive cake washing with one or more fluids after spinning
  • Separation of mother liquor from wash liquor by valves
  • Cake discharge.

Options :
Bottom Discharge :

Paring knife removes the cake towards the open cents.

Top discharge:
- Manual:After filtration removal of cake by manual scraping and shovel
- Bag Lifting:Entire bag lifted by upper ring to which the filter bag is attached.

Design Features
  • Design and connection as per IS/API/BS.
  • 3 point or 4 Point anti-vibration suspension, alternatively. VISCO-damper suspension.
  • Gas tight up to 0.04 bar over pressure.
  • With lip or glide ring seals
  • Cake Removal by Bag lifting / Manual Scraping / Pneumatic Top discharge / or Bottom discharge.
  • Grease lubricated bearings. Oil lubrication for demanding use in chemical industry.
  • Hydraulic Variable speed drive for direct coupling through V-Belts
  • Through cake wash
  • Discharge with negligible crystal breakage
  • Residual heel removal

Optionally :

  • Drive with frequency converter or
  • Two speed Electric Motor with electronic start up or with turbo coupling.

Optionals :

  • Automatic and Manual operation with either microprocessor or pneumatic controller with the exception of unloading operation.
  • Explosion Proofing and safety devices.
  • Through the floor construction.
  • Pneumatic drive for the cover and scraper unit for use in a clean Room.
