Screen scroll centrifuge for flexible dewatering
Ensure maximum uptime and consistent dewatering performance amidst variable feed conditions with a centrifuge designed for seamless maintenance and process reliability.
Efficiently Separates and Dewaters Industrial Slurries
The Screen Scroll Centrifuge HX from ANDRITZ is engineered to tackle the diverse demands of industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food processing. It stands out with an express cartridge system that minimizes downtime, allowing maintenance work to be completed in under 8 hours by quickly swapping cartridges. The Gentle FeederTM system reduces wear and particle attrition, prolonging equipment life and preserving material integrity. Capable of handling up to 60 tons per hour, this centrifuge efficiently processes various end products, including liquid fertilizers, PET plastic bottles, and medical-grade aspirin tablets, with a solid recovery rate of up to 98% by weight. Its PLC-controlled operations enable seamless integration into existing production lines, while optional stainless steel or Hastelloy construction ensures resistance to harsh chemicals. Designed for ease of use, the modular scroll design facilitates convenient maintenance, meeting industry standards and supporting continuous operations with minimal intervention.
