Seital Self-Cleaning Clarifiers

Key features

• Self-Cleaning Clarifiers for Liquid/Solid Separation: ITT Flow Technologies Seital offers a wide range of self-cleaning clarifiers for liquid/solid separation. The clarifier allows the recovery of fine particles (0.5–500 µm) and/or strong clarification of liquids by means of a very high peripheral centrifugal field (G-force).
• Clarification: The product to be clarified flows into the bowl through a feed pipe(1)and into the distributor(2) it then undergoes acceleration until it reaches the rotating speed of the bowl. The distributor(2)conveys the product to the disks stack(3)where the clarification takes place. The clarified liquid then rises in the disks stack and reaches the upper chamber of the bowl. Here a fixed centripetal pump(4) conveys it under pressure to the outlet pipeline(6). A hydraulic sealing device (5)prevents product oxidation due to ambient air.
• Solids discharge: The separated solids are collected in the peripheral part of the bowl(7)and are periodically discharged through the discharge holes(8). The discharged solids are collected into an outer annular chamber connected to a damping sludge tank where they are drained away by gravity through a pipe.
