Manual cleaning separators<br />

Manual cleaning separators with a solid wall bowl<br />

and a single centripetal pump are used mostly<br />

for the treatment of diesel oil and lube oil on<br />

smaller ships. They are suitable for clarifying or<br />

purifying oils with a low solids content of up to<br />

0.1 percent by vol.<br />

The clean oil is discharged from the bowl under<br />

pressure by means of a centripetal pump. The<br />

separated solids slide down the underside of the<br />

disc into the solids holding space which must be<br />

emptied periodically by hand.<br />

Benefits<br />

• Suitable for both clarifying and purifying<br />

• Highly concentrated solids<br />

• Simple construction<br />

• Versatility of application<br />
