Centrifuge: horizontal pharma peeler
Centrifuge: horizontal pharma peeler
The horizontal pharma peeler is a batch type automatic/semi automatic filtering centrifuge. The axis of rotation of the basket in this centrifuge is horizontal. It is ideally suited for a clean room installation - "through the wall" using a flexible membrane as required in pharmaceutical applications. Operation: slurry is fed into the rotating basket using a feed pipe. Washing (using a wash pipe) and dewatering cycles are carried out. Liquid is discharged through a sloping discharge pipe at the lowest point. Solids are peeled using a full-length knife and are discharged by gravity from a nozzle on the front of outer body. The centrifuge is designed to perform feeding, washing and peeling at maximum speed depending on material characteristics. Advantages include: complete separation of the process area (feed, wash, solid discharge) from service area (liquid outlet, motor, hydraulic power pack, bearing housing); the entire bearing housing is removable from the service area; fully opening outer body giving full access to basket (inside, outside and rear), peeler knife, and other inner parts for cleaning, inspection, validation and swab tests; and entire operation in a nitrogen blanketed atmosphere.
