Working principle

Top-Suspended Scraper Discharge Centrifuge is mainly composed of drum, drive system, shaft seat, upper casing, shell, spindle, scraper group, etc. The structure is that the transmission system is placed on the top, the vertical motor directly drives the spindle through the coupling, and the drum is fixed at the lower end of the spindle.

The working principle of the Top-suspended centrifuge: the motor drives the drum to rotate. When the feeding speed is reached, the suspension material to be separated enters the high-speed rotating drum through the feeding pipe. After the feeding reaches the predetermined volume, the feeding is stopped. The drum rises to the high-speed separation speed. Under the action of the centrifuge, the material is filtered through the filter cloth (filter screen), and the liquid phase passes through the filter layer through the drum hole to the cavity and is discharged through the liquid discharge pipe, the solid phase is trapped in the drum to form round filter cake, and then the filter cake can be washed. After the separation requirements are met, the rotation speed drops to the discharge rotation speed state, the lower drum casing moves downward along the axis direction, and the scraper device acts to scrape the filter cake from the inner wall of the drum to discharge the lower discharge port of the centrifuge.

 

Main features

1. The centrifuge is driven by motor frequency conversion and fully automatic cycle operation. In the periodic automatic cycle operation, the frequency conversion stepless speed regulation realizes the optimal operation to meet the requirements of vulgar feeding, high-speed separation and low-speed unloading on the speed to the maximum extent.

2. The centrifuge adopts feedback braking, which has a significant energy-saving effect.

3. The electrical control adopts programmable logic controller (PLC), which can set the time of each process, and the real-time working status of each process is displayed on the operation screen.

4. According to the process requirements, a closed structure type can be adopted and an inerting automatic control system can be configured to achieve inerting protection inside the machine.

5. The overall structure of the centrifuge is compact and the operation is stable.

6, large production capacity, high degree of automation, high speed, good separation effect, low noise, low labor intensity.

7. Optional remote self-service fault diagnosis system.

8. Level detection: mechanical level detection, intelligent camera level detection system.

 

Application areas

The Top-suspended centrifuge is widely used, from fine particles of starch to medium coarse particles of sugar, especially suitable for the separation of fine sticky materials, widely used in chemical, light industry, pharmaceutical and other industries, such as edible sugar, glucose, methyl sugar paste, calcium hydrogen phosphate, monosodium glutamate, boric acid, borax, calcium carbonate, starch, potassium chlorate, gypsum and other materials.

 

Main product specifications and parameters

The solid grains are fine and the texture is compact. The drum adopts a cylindrical simplified structure, and the material can be scraped off the drum wall through radial and axial movements of the scraper to complete the unloading process, which is called the "XJZ" type.

Top-Suspended Scraper Discharge Centrifuge

 

 


In the demanding world of industrial solid-liquid separation, achieving efficiency, reliability, and product quality is paramount. Among the various technologies available, the Top-Suspended Scraper Discharge Centrifuge stands out as a superior solution for a wide range of challenging applications. This sophisticated piece of equipment, characterized by its unique overhead suspension design, offers a compelling array of benefits that directly translate to enhanced productivity, reduced operating costs, and superior process outcomes. From chemical manufacturing to pharmaceutical production and food processing, the advantages of implementing a Top-Suspended Scraper Discharge Centrifuge are both significant and multifaceted.


Superior Separation Efficiency and Dryer Solids
The design of the Top-Suspended Scraper Discharge Centrifuge is optimized for exceptional separation performance. The suspended basket allows for a deep solids bed to form, which acts as a filter medium itself, resulting in brilliantly clear centrate (liquid effluent). Furthermore, the prolonged spin cycle, uninterrupted by the need for manual discharge, ensures maximum liquid removal, yielding a solids cake with exceptionally low moisture content. This directly reduces downstream drying costs and energy consumption, as the product leaves the centrifuge in a much drier state. The ability to achieve such high levels of dryness and clarity is a direct contributor to a more efficient and cost-effective overall process.

Uninterrupted Continuous Operation and Automated Discharge
A primary driver of productivity in modern industry is continuous, automated operation. The automated scraper system is the heart of this centrifuge's efficiency. Unlike manual or bag-dump centrifuges that require a complete stop for unloading, the scraper mechanism engages while the basket continues to rotate at a reduced speed. This allows for the complete and efficient discharge of solids without interrupting the processing cycle. This capability eliminates costly downtime between batches, maximizes throughput, and enables truly continuous processing. The automation also reduces labor requirements and minimizes operator exposure to the process, enhancing both safety and operational consistency.

Exceptional Ease of Maintenance and Hygiene
The overhead suspension design provides unparalleled access to key components. Maintenance personnel can easily inspect the basket, scraper blade, and housing without the complex disassembly often required by bottom-driven models. This accessibility significantly reduces maintenance time and labor costs. Furthermore, the design often features a clean, uncluttered bowl area with minimal ledges or dead zones where material can accumulate. This makes Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) and Sterilization-In-Place (SIP) procedures highly effective, making the Top-Suspended Scraper Discharge Centrifuge a preferred choice for applications requiring strict hygienic standards, such as in API production for pharmaceuticals or food ingredient processing.
