GN solids America has 2 units of variable frequency drive decanter centrifuge in Houston warehouse, we accept to make test firstly in the factory before shipment, welcome to contact GN solids sales to arrange for a test.
Working principal of VFD decanter centrifuge:
GN use Netzsch Brand NEMO pump to feed the drilling mud into the feed tube and flow to the centrifuge bowl, the bowl rotates high speed under , the screw conveyor, which is inside the bowl ,get a differential speed through the gearbox. The bowl and conveyor compose the pulley and belt with the differential speed and rotates in the same direction.
Under the working of different centrifugal force , the heavier solids paticles is pushed to the inner bowl and pushed theought the screw to the solids discharge port, the lighter weight fluids is settle down and discharged through the fluids output port, which with 6pcs adjustable dams to adjust the fluids pond depth inside the centrifuge bow.
Viriable frequency drive decanter centrifuge can adjust the screw rotary speed to achieve different working purpose. For example, when start the centrifuge, firstly you start it with a low frequency to get a lower electric currency to protect the VFD control panle, when it works stably, you can adjust the frequency to your required data to get your required performance. For the drilling mud with high gravity solids, 2500rpm rotation speed is required; for the drilling fluids with low gravity solids, 3200rpm is recommend. To collect the barite, 1800rpm is recommend. But such recommendation is just for oil & gas drilling, not inludes food, waste water, etc.
Applications of GN decanter centrifuge
1 solids control system, working to separate fine solids 2~5 microns
2 drilling waste managements system, working to separate the fine solids from the recycled mud from linner shale shaker
3 Liquid mud plant, working to separate fine solids and re-mix the drilling fluids, which can be re-used by the rig.
