A good spin on separation performance

The fluid-dynamically designed accelerator hub and the big effective flow radius help applying the high rotor accelerations of up to 2.000 g effectively on the liquid and the particles to be separated. This is why STA Separators reach significant grade efficiencies for particles down to 1 to 3 µm. For high flow rates up to 250 l/min strong drives are selected accordingly.

Right and Tight

The high acceleration forces also result in an optimum compression of the separated solids. The sludge is dry and can be reasonably disposed or even recycled.

A matter of mud

If you decide to go for a centrifugal separator as your separating system, most parameters relevant to filtration, such as shape and composition of the solids, become forgettable. Unfilterable additives like greases and polish, or those problematic ingredients in cast alloys namely graphite and silicon just get removed as well. More examples: chlorinated drawing oils, molybdenum, scales, paint sludge, phosphates, organic slurries, …

It’s running already

So quiet you wonder why it’s not running. Thanks to its direct drive and the silicon sand filled double casing the separator generates a very low noise level; only 70 dB(A) on the model S-15. Sound-damping housings are rarely necessary.

Not afraid of hot acid

STA Separators are available in different material pairings. For demanding applications in medical or food-related industry, or for use with hot and chemically aggressive media all models can be stainless steel built, in both 304 and 316 Ti alloy, accordingly combined with special sealing materials.
