Centrifuge
What is a Centrifuge?
An industrial centrifuge is a separation machine that uses centrifugal force to separate solids from liquids.
We service industrial centrifuges from many brands, including Alfa Laval, GEA, Westfalia, Flottweg, Pieralisi, STS, and others.
There are different types of centrifuges designed for various applications:
- Centrifuge Purifier
- Centrifuge Clarifier
- Centrifuge Concentrator
Centrifuges can be either automatic or solid wall. The automatic centrifuge discharges solids automatically, whereas the solid bowl centrifuge requires manual cleaning. Typically, manual centrifuges handle products with very low solid content (less than 1% v/v), while automatic centrifuges can process solids up to 5% v/v.
Additionally, the flow rate of each centrifuge depends significantly on factors such as the percentage of solids and the sludge space (size) of the machine, among other important variables.
We provide on-site service; however, if your machine requires major repairs, you can send it to our workshop.
From the moment your equipment arrives, Alfawest focuses on every detail. First, our team disassembles all used Alfa Laval,Westfalia or any other brand of Centrifuges and performs a thorough inspection and analysis. Then, after our experienced engineers determine the best way to restore your centrifuge to peak performance, we will promptly contact you with our recommendations.
Furthermore, Alfawest takes pride in delivering quality turnarounds to get you back in production quickly and operating at optimum capacity with minimal downtime.
Finally, whenever you face an unexpected breakdown, we stand ready to resolve it efficiently and keep your operations running smoothly.
