Bottom Discharge Centrifuges

Bottom Driven Bottom Discharge Centrifuge

A Whirler Bottom Driven Bottom Discharge Centrifuge is a type of industrial centrifuge used for solid-liquid separation. Here’s a short description:

This centrifuge operates with the main drive motor located below the centrifuge basket (bottom driven) ( or pulley driven). This design often allows for a more compact and stable unit. The key feature is its bottom discharge mechanism. Once the solid cake is formed and dewatered, it’s discharged through an opening at the bottom of the centrifuge basket, often facilitated by a scraper or plow. This makes it particularly suitable for processing crystalline, granular, or fibrous materials where the solids need to be efficiently and continuously or semi-continuously removed from the machine. Its robust construction and efficient discharge make it a popular choice in industries like chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, and food production.
