Abstract: In a method of operating a centrifugal separator for separating at least one liquid phase and a sludge phase from a liquid feed mixture, the centrifugal separator includes a frame, a drive member and a centrifuge bowl. The drive member is configured to rotate the centrifuge bowl in relation to the frame around an axis of rotation. The centrifuge bowl encloses a separation space and a sludge space. The separation space includes a stack of separation discs arranged coaxially around the axis of rotation and the sludge space is arranged radially outside the stack of separation discs. The centrifuge bowl includes an inlet for receiving the liquid feed mixture, at least one liquid outlet for a separated liquid phase, and sludge outlets for a separated sludge phase arranged at the periphery of the centrifuge bowl.

Abstract: A centrifugal separator has a stationary casing and a centrifuge rotor, which is provided in the stationary casing and arranged to rotate around an axis of rotation at a rotary speed and which includes a plurality of nozzles for discharge of a product from the centrifuge rotor. The centrifugal separator includes a sensor device which includes a transfer element, which has a first part and a second part and which is configured to be mounted in such a way that the first part is located inside the stationary casing and outside the centrifuge rotor and that the second part is located outside the stationary casing. At least the first part of the transfer element has an elongated shape, a receiving head, which includes the first part of the transfer element.
