High-performance decanter centrifuge for industrial separation
Optimize your production with a centrifuge solution that enhances separation efficiency and reduces downtime, ensuring high-speed and reliable operations for diverse industrial applications.
Separates and Clarifies Complex Mixtures Efficiently
The Flottweg Z-Series decanter centrifuges offer modular solutions tailored for diverse industries such as food processing, chemical manufacturing, and pharmaceutical production. These centrifuges use a high-speed rotational bowl with an integrated decanting system to achieve efficient solid-liquid separation in continuous operations. They are indispensable in processing wet starch, edible oils, ethanol, and pharmaceuticals like insulin and penicillin.
With capacities scaling up to thousands of liters per hour, these centrifuges ensure precision in both two-phase and three-phase separation tasks. They integrate seamlessly with production lines through PLC control and remote monitoring capabilities, enhancing operational efficiency. Energy consumption is minimized through advanced bowl and scroll geometry, utilizing the Simp Drive® system for optimal torque and speed adjustments.
Built from high-quality stainless steel, they offer excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring long service life in rigorous applications like handling fermentation broths and mineral oils. The Z-Series complies with ATEX standards for safe operation in explosive environments and includes a CIP system, ensuring thorough cleaning of the product-contact parts without disassembly. Customization options including rotor speeds and pond depths are available, backed by Flottweg’s engineering expertise, guaranteeing optimal performance for your specific processing needs.
