Decanter Centrifuge

HH Model 5500 Centrifuge with Viscotherm Hydraulic Back Drive

Machine Description: High G-Force 5500 Standard Centrifuge with Electric Motor Main Drive and Viscotherm Hydraulic Back Drive system. The main drive step sheave allows for two (2) fixed main drive speeds, generating 900 g's for barite recovery and 2100 g's for high speed polishing. The Viscotherm Hydraulic Back Drive system provides for infinitely adjustable differential between 1 RPM and 62 RPM.

The Hutchison Hayes Model 5500 Standard Decanting Centrifuge includes a rotating assembly dimensioned 16" diameter x 55" long. The rotating bowl is made from stainless steel and is centrifugally cast as one piece (not a welded assembly) in order to withstand corrosion and stress associated with high-speed operation. The conveyor is also constructed of stainless steel. This complete rotating assembly will be dynamically balanced.
