Noise Declaration
Noise emission data for the decanter declared in accordance with the re-
quirements in EN ISO 4871 and EN12547:
LpAd : Declared A-weighted emission sound pressure level in a free field over a re-
flecting plane at 1 m distance from the decanter
LpAd : KpA=4 dB
The noise does not contain significant impulsive or tonal components and the peak C-
weighted instantaneous sound pressure level LpCpeak is below 130 dB(C) at all operat-
ing speeds.
The emission sound power level is measured according to ISO 9614-2 while operating
the decanter with water as process medium. The sound pressure level is determined
from the measured sound power level according to EN ISO 11203.
The sound pressure level can vary –1dB to 2 dB at different positions around the decanter.
For decanters with hydraulic back drive some operating modes will give up to 2dB in-
crease in sound pressure at the back drive end of the decanter.
The declared values are based on measurements conducted on typical new decanters.
Note that the sound pressure levels are based on free-field conditions and not guaran-
teed values. In a normal indoor installation the sound pressure level will be significant-
ly higher than the declared free-field sound pressure level due to the reflection of
sound from walls and surroundings.
In order to minimise the sound pressure level at the decanter it is recommended to in-
stall the decanter in a room with low reflection of sound from the walls and always
keep the decanter in a properly maintained condition.

10. Do not attempt dismantling until the decanter has come
to a complete stop, the main power is shut off, and the dis-
connected main switch is locked with a safety lock.
20. Do not operate the decanter with any electrical motor run-
ning in the opposite direction to that indicated by the ar-
rows on the frame or otherwise specified.

21. If the decanter is fitted with a frequency inverter, make
sure that the maximum possible frequency will not cause
overspeeding of the decanter. At least two separate pro-
tections against overspeed must be provided. See section
6.9.
22. Do not turn on feed or water before the decanter has at-
tained its full speed.
25. Never start the feed pump or flush the decanter before
opening the discharge valves or starting the discharge
pumps, including any conveying means for the liquid and
solids phases.
27. Do not touch the solids phase discharging from the de-
canter as hard lumps being ejected with high speed might
cause injury.
29. When lifting the decanter, use the slings specified on the
dimensioned drawing.
30. The lifting eyes in the bearing housings, if fitted, must not
be used for lifting the bowl assembly.

Corrosion, Erosion and Pitting of Decanter
Equipment It should be recognized that equipment sub-
jected to severe erosive or corrosive environments may deteri-
orate over a period of time, depending upon the severity of ex-
posure and/or possible misuse. Users of high speed centrifu-
gal equipment should be aware of this fact and also that ex-
tremely high forces are brought into play when their equip-
ment is in operation. Any weakening of highly stressed mem-
bers by misuse, erosion, corrosion, chemical pitting, or stress
cracking must be guarded against.
The following points should be noted and the recom-
mended action taken:

2.1 See the last pages ”Supplementary Documentation” for
precise data of the actual delivery of decanter.
2.6 Place control panels in a way that they are not damaged
mechanically or sprayed by water or product during
transportation, repair, maintenance, or operation.

3.1 The passageways must be of adequate width to allow the
passage of necessary transport equipment (fork lifts etc.).
3.2 Lifting gear to remove the bowl from the frame must
have adequate lifting height and capacity (see Dimen-
sional Drawing).

5 - Connections and Ducting for
Process Material
5.0 The feed pipe must always be pushed home in the de-
canter.
5.1 For plants comprising more than one decanter, each de-
canter must have its own feed line with its own feed
pump(s).
5.2 As the outlets for solids and liquid are placed under the
decanter, enough space must be provided for collection
of solids and liquid, and for transport equipment for
their removal.
5.3 The installation must be made in such a way that the ro-
tating bowl or any scraping device cannot be reached
from underneath the decanter.

5.4 The free flow from the liquid discharge must not be ob-
structed. For this reason:
• always dimension the liquid discharge duct accord-
ing to the flow rate. Do not make the inside diameter
smaller than 200 mm.
• avoid too sharp or too many bends.
• always arrange for a slope in the liquid discharge
duct.
• never use a duct whose diameter is smaller than that
of the decanter liquid discharge aperture.

5.5 Never reduce the dimensions of the solids discharge.
5.8 The connection between the external piping and the feed
tube must be flexible. If the decanter blocks, the pressure
in the system will increase to full pump pressure, there-
fore high quality industrial hose compensator and fit-
tings suited for the actual pressures must be used.
Take care not to bend or stress plastic connections.
5.9 All connections for feed tube, solids, and liquid discharg-
es must be flexible. They must be able to compensate for
vibration amplitudes of +/- 5 mm in any direction.

5.10 The Dimensional Drawing (see supplementary section of
this book) gives the dimensions for pipe and flange con-
nections. The flexible connections should preferably be
fitted directly to the flanges shown in the dimensional
drawing.
For the solids and liquid outlets under the decanter
the maximum permissible distance from the flange to the
flexible connection is 600 mm and the maximum permis-
sible weight of any adaptor is 30 kg.
The weight of any connection fitted between the end
of the feed tube and the flexible connection must not ex-
ceed 5 kg, and the maximum permissible distance be-
tween the feed tube connection and the flexible connec-
tion is 200 mm.

Functions which must be switched off by an activated
alarm, emergency stop, or main switch:
Restarting:
On a tripped alarm, an activated emergency stop, or a
broken mains supply circuit automatic restarting of the
decanter must not be possible before having eliminated
the conditions which caused the alarm to trip and reset
the tripped alarm and the emergency stop, and after this
remedy a signal has been given to start the decanter
again.
