Pieralisi SCORPION Series

Vertical pyrolysis centrifuges are a suitable technological solution to complete the separation process performed by receiver centrifuges. Centrifugal separators, with very high rotational speeds, can reach a centrifugal force of up to 10,000 grams. This very high centrifugal force is a key element that allows the separators to remove solid particles that have not been successfully trapped in previous separation steps. In addition, the achievable performance levels depend on many factors: structural (type and design of the disc, internal volume, surfaces and discharge devices) and operational (flow rate, product characteristics, amount and type of solid content, temperature).

The product enters the upper part of the separator through the feed tube for clarification and is then subjected to centrifugal force and is forced to pass through hundreds of internal disks. The combined operation of the centrifugal force combined with the internal disks leads to the separation of solid particles that deposit on the drum wall and are then automatically and intermittently discharged. Fluids rise to the top of the drum and are continuously discharged through free outlets or centrifugal pumps.

Description

The SCORPION series of centrifuges are the final stage of evolution in the production and design of pyrolysis decanters because with their advanced technology in two- and three-phase processing, they offer very high capacity and excellent performance; SCORPION series decanter centrifuges, with the same flow rate, significantly reduce water consumption compared to other Piralisi extraction devices.

Specifications

Adjust the feeding point

Depending on the type, quality, and condition of the olives to be processed, the number of times liquids (water-oil) or pulp remain inside the drum can be increased.

Liquid phase level adjustment

The volume of water and oil in the drum can be increased or decreased, and as a result, their shelf life increases depending on the type, quality, and condition of the olives.

Adjust screw cycles

The differential speed of the screw can be changed, as a result of how long the pulp stays next to the cone, and as a result the moisture and fat residue of the oil changes depending on the type, quality, and condition of the olives.

  • All parts in contact with the product are made of stainless steel.
  • All parts that are exposed to abrasion (such as screws, product inlet diffusers, and waste disposal plants) are covered with abrasion-resistant materials.
  • Soft start with variable frequency drive (VFD).
  • Electronic control of drum speed (rpm) and differential screw speed (models with Rotovariatore – optional).
  • Solid abrasive pneumatic shavers with pneumatic control.
  • Insulation from the ground using anti-vibration supports.
