Cost-effective olive oil decanter centrifuge

Separates and Clarifies Olive Oil and Wet Solids

The Alfa Laval Y Series decanter centrifuges, including models Y8, Y9, and Y10, are engineered to enhance the efficiency of olive oil producers and food and beverage processing plants. Designed specifically for two-phase operation, these centrifuges optimize oil extraction and clarification of wet solids through a precise conveyor geometry that minimizes turbulence and maximizes yield. Featuring a robust stainless steel construction with optional tungsten carbide wear protection, they offer durability and reduced maintenance costs. The system’s variable frequency drive (VFD) allows electronic control of conveyor speed, adjusting retention time for desired oil clarity while reducing power consumption. Integrated into your production line, these decanters ensure continuous, automated operation, handling a range of liquid and slurry product types with high speed and reliability. With hinged casings for easy access and an overload protection system, maintenance and cleaning are efficient, ensuring minimal downtime. Ideal for producing extra virgin olive oil, olive pomace, and clarified olive oil, the Y Series provides a vital role in agricultural and food processing sectors.
