Sharples Laboratory Super Centrifuge

SSN: 481A1201

Type: T313A-49A

            This continuous bowl centrifuge has an extremely high separating force, combined with smooth and efficient performance. Three specific operations include:

1)      The sedimentation of solids from liquids

2)      The clarification of liquids

3)      The separation of immiscible liquids occurring as mixtures and emulsions.

On clarification operations, a single continuous discharge of the clarified liquid takes place. The solids are collected in the rotating element and removed periodically. During the separation of immiscible liquids, the mixture is fed to the centrifuge and two continuous separate discharges are affected. Also, note that although this is a continuous operation, batch operations may be performed as well using a closed rotating element.

Capability:      Maximum speed: 50,000 rpm
