Westfalia Separator
The Westfalia Separator UCD 205 decanter centrifuge
is a continuously operating horizontal solid wall bowl
centrifuge for maximum dewatering requirements of
municipal and industrial waste water sludge. The frame
is of open design with either gravity or pressure
discharge of the clarified phase.
The following adjustments are possible:
basic differential speed
beginning of control (threshold value = torque at
which control begins)
control gradient (differential speed change as a
function of the current and hence of the torque)

Materials Protected by power consumption limit with 2 switching

All parts coming into contact with the product are
made of CrNiMo stainless steel. All gaskets coming into
contact with the product are made of NBR (Perbunan).
The machine is coated in Seevenax RAL 6011 green,
a synthetic resin paint.
values and thus torque limitation.
Stage 1: stops product feed into the decanter
Stage 2: stops the main motor of the decanter to
enable the bowl to empty during slowing
down of the machine

Housing The main and secondary motor are installed between

the feet of the frame for space savings.
The housing consists of a welded frame with feet,
motor bracket, guards and catcher of stainless steel Torque

motor designed for controlled torque starting in a star
delta circuit. Power transmission is via V-belts.

For the decanter type with standard gear drive the

motor drives the bowl and scroll with only one gear.

Equipped with a 2-gear drive system the differential

speed is adjusted automatically, which ensures constant
solids drying in case of fluctuating feed concentration
and product volumes. The differential speed is analogue
controlled for the solids loading as soon as a preset
threshold value is exceeded. The differential speed
adjustment could be necessary to react to a change in
torque depending on the control gradient.

Capacity
Comparative capacity 5000 l/h

The comparative capacity refers to various decanters from Westfalia Separator and is below the
max. throughput capacity. The effective capacity depends on the extent to which the inflowing
mixture can be clarified, the level of solids contained in the feed, the dry matter content required in
the discharged solids and the level of solids permissible in the clarified liquid. In general, the machine
can be adjusted to take account of the above requirements.

Min. lifting capacity of trolley hoist for installation, assembly and dismantling: 1000 kg.
