Centrifugal separator having at least a vibrating unit and one or more drum shock absorbers

The present disclosure relates to a centrifugal separator (1), which comprises a rotatable drum (5) having a wall (50), an annular chamber (7) defined along the longitudinal axis (49) of the rotatable drum (5) in a portion adjoining to the wall (50), wherein a mixture of substances in the liquid phase and in the solid phase is movable longitudinally through the annular chamber (7), and a discharging station (13) for discharging the solid phase. The discharging station (13) comprises a vibrating unit (300) for agitating the solid phase. The vibrating unit (300) comprises a half-drum (302) and a vibrating device (304) adapted to vibrate the half-drum (302).

SELF-EMPTYING SEPARATOR FOR THE GENTLE DISCHARGE OF SHEAR-SENSITIVE PRODUCTS, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SAME

A self-emptying separator includes a rotatable drum with an inlet, a liquid outlet, outlet openings for solid material, and a control system. A flowable starting product is cleared of the solids in continuous operation in a centrifugal field in the rotating drum. A continuous discharge of a clear phase is performed. A solid phase is discharged via the outlet openings from a solids collecting space of the drum into an annular solids catcher. The solids catcher has a device for generating a fluid curtain against which the solids, issuing from the outlet openings for solid material, impact.
