The Bird 18 x 28 solid bowl decanter centrifuge, 304SS. is engineered for high-efficiency separation processes, particularly suited for applications involving viscous materials and slurries. With a maximum bowl speed of 1900 RPM, this centrifuge utilizes a cylinder bowl design that enhances the separation of solids from liquids, ensuring optimal performance in various industrial settings. The robust construction of the centrifuge, made from 304 stainless steel, not only provides excellent corrosion resistance but also ensures durability and longevity in demanding environments. The 2.5-inch single lead hardsurfaced conveyor is designed to effectively transport solids out of the bowl, minimizing wear and tear while maximizing throughput. This makes the Bird centrifuge an ideal choice for industries such as chemical processing, food production, and wastewater treatment, where reliability and efficiency are paramount.

Powering the Bird 18 x 28 solid bowl decanter centrifuge is a 15 HP motor, capable of operating at 230/460 volts and 3-phase, with a speed of 1775 RPM. This motor, coupled with the SA-69 gearbox, ensures smooth operation and the ability to handle varying loads with ease. Additionally, the 7.5 HP backdrive enhances the centrifuge's performance by providing additional torque when needed, particularly during startup or when processing denser materials. The unit is mounted on a sturdy stand, complete with chutes and a solids tank, facilitating easy integration into existing production lines. With prior use in aluminum pigment applications, this centrifuge has demonstrated its capability to handle fine particles and maintain high separation efficiency, making it a valuable asset for any industrial operation seeking to optimize their separation processes.
