How do we avoid decanter centrifuge stoppages as much as possible?

1. Minimize the need for gears or belts to drive the centrifuge.

2. Control and maintain speed during the decanting process.

3. Develop high torque at very low speeds.

4. Two motor applications, one for the bowl and one for the scroll.

5. The bowl has a very high-reflected inertia.

6. The scroll is usually in continuous regeneration, as it runs at a slower speed than the bowl and is pulled along.

7. Torque limiting on the scroll is very important.

8. Some configurations require zero-speed operation of the scroll ( differential gearbox ).

9. Dynamic braking or regenerative modules may be required if the bowl is NOT driven by a drive.

10. Explosion-proof environments.

Following the above tips, decanter centrifuge will show its maximum solids control efficiency.
