Industrial nozzle separator for high solids concentration
Industries such as food processing, starch production, and pharmaceuticals often require efficient separation of solids from liquids in high concentration. The challenge lies in achieving clear separation while maintaining a continuous, low-maintenance operation that meets hygienic standards.
Continuous solids separation with minimal energy use
The Flottweg nozzle separator is specifically designed for continuous separation of solids from liquids, particularly in applications where high solids concentration is present. Featuring an energy-optimized, low-wear bowl design, it ensures reliable operation with minimal vibrations. The innovative design includes carbide-protected nozzles to extend service life and reduce maintenance needs. The separator bowl is lighter than conventional designs, cutting down on drive energy requirements. With CIP (Clean-In-Place) capabilities and high-quality stainless steel construction, it meets stringent hygienic standards. This makes it ideal for industries such as starch extraction, food processing, and biotechnology. Technical features include a robust three-phase AC motor with belt drive, a flexible speed regulation via frequency converter, and an efficient lubrication system that prolongs the life of the spindle bearings. The system dimensions are approximately 2000x1200x2200 mm and it weighs around 2800 kg.
