Two Key Components of a<br />

Conveyor / Scroll – Continuously<br />

transports solids which have<br />

settled upon the inside of the bowl<br />

wall. Solids are conveyed to the<br />

conical section of the bowl and<br />

then discharged through the cake<br />

discharge ports. The conveyor is<br />

independently driven by a self<br />

adjusting hydrostatic transmission.<br />

Centrisys Corporation - Sales <strong>Presentation</strong> - 7 -<br />

Bowl – The key component in the<br />

decanter centrifuge which through<br />

its rotation creates “g” forces in<br />

excess of 3000. Separation of the<br />

solids from the liquids occur under<br />

the high centrifugal force. The<br />

solids are discharged at the<br />

conical end of the bowl while the<br />

liquid travels toward the cylindrical<br />

end where it is discharged through<br />

adjustable weirs.
