Abstract: A rotatable separator drum includes a vertical rotating axis of rotation and at least one flow channel having an inlet opening and an outlet opening. Also included is at least one retaining dam arranged in the at least one flow channel in a region between the inlet opening and the outlet opening. The at least one retaining dam is configured to allow an overflow of liquid over the at least one dam and to provide for an accumulation of solids in front of the at least one dam. The at least one dam includes at least one rib arranged in a transitional region between opposing wall sections and a distributor base cover and the at least one rib includes portions having differing heights.

Abstract: A skimmer device (100) for discharging liquid from a centrifuge drum (10) comprising a vertically arranged skimmer disk pipe (20) and a skimmer disk (30) which is arranged inside the centrifuge drum and provided with at least one inlet duct. The inlet duct extends from the periphery (31) of the skimmer disk (30) and leads into at least one shaft duct (22) which extends at least partially along the skimmer disk pipe. The inlet duct and the shaft duct (22) form a discharge duct which has at least one throttle point (25, 27) where the cross-sectional area of the discharge is reduced. The inlet duct is divided by at least one duct division element (33.1, 33.2) into at least two partial inlet ducts (32.1 . . . 32.3) which are arranged on top of each other and which lead into the shaft duct (22). Each partial inlet duct (32.1 . . . 32.3) is provided with at least one partial inlet duct throttle element (34.1 . . . 34.3) at said throttle point.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a rotary-cutting disk for a centrifuge. The rotary-cutting disk includes a disk-shaped base section adjoined by a tube-shaped section. Also included is at least one draining duct for a liquid phase in the base section, the draining duct extending at an acute angle from an inlet at an outer circumference of the base section and in a flow direction of a liquid phase. The at least one draining duct includes walls extending from the inlet to an outlet. At least one of the walls of the draining duct is at least partially or in sections contoured in a wave shape.

Abstract: A centrifugal drum (1) has an inlet chamber (12) connected to a discharge chamber (10) via ducts (21), with the supplied fluid flowing radially through rib-free annular chambers (24, 25, 26) on the way to the discharge chamber (10). A through-flow resistance is thereby generated which ensures that the inlet chamber (12) is filled completely. Since the ducts (21) start in the vicinity of the inlet pipe (8), the acceleration of the supplied fluid to the speed of rotation of the centrifugal drum (1) occurs over a small diameter with the result that the stress on the centrifuged material is relatively low.
