Fastening elements<br />
In a complex decanter or separator<br />
that operates at extremely high<br />
speeds, not a single screw can be<br />
loose. To ensure a long life and<br />
peak performance from your<br />
machine, the use of original <strong>GEA</strong><br />
<strong>Westfalia</strong> <strong>Separator</strong> parts is strongly<br />
recommended.<br />
Hard metal inserts and<br />
rubber mounts<br />
Hard-metal inserts and rubber<br />
mounts from <strong>GEA</strong> <strong>Westfalia</strong><br />
<strong>Separator</strong> are specially manufactured<br />
and stored to ensure safety while the<br />
machine is running at full operating<br />
speeds.<br />
Scrolls<br />
In most cases there is little<br />
visible difference between original<br />
parts from <strong>GEA</strong> <strong>Westfalia</strong> <strong>Separator</strong><br />
and copies. Unfortunately, the<br />
difference often becomes apparent<br />
when it is too late. The original<br />
scrolls installed in decanters<br />
from <strong>GEA</strong> <strong>Westfalia</strong> <strong>Separator</strong><br />
measure up to our high standards.<br />
They pass through extensive testing<br />
procedures before being approved<br />
for use.<br />
Faults<br />
Fastening elements<br />
may not conform to<br />
OEM specifications,<br />
e.g., tensile and yield<br />
strength, geometry<br />
Faults<br />
Incorrect geometry<br />
and material<br />
selection<br />
Faults<br />
Scroll not correctly<br />
balanced<br />
Scroll hard-surfacing<br />
not suitable<br />
for application<br />
Risks<br />
Reduced tension and<br />
corrosion resistance,<br />
loose screw connection<br />
Damage to components<br />
other then the fastener<br />
and possibly the<br />
entire centrifuge<br />
Risks<br />
Reduced impact resistance<br />
Reduced chemical<br />
resistance<br />
Reduced temperature<br />
resistance<br />
Reduced solvent<br />
resistance<br />
Reduced service life of<br />
equipment<br />
High vibration radiating to<br />
other plant equipment<br />
Risks<br />
Short service life of<br />
bearings, seals and drive<br />
system<br />
High vibration radiating to<br />
other plant equipment<br />
Reduced service life<br />
of equipment<br />
Damaged or fractured<br />
parts of the hard surfacing<br />
can damage centrifuge<br />
components and<br />
downstream equipment<br />
