DFE 600x960 High Volume Centrifuge

Drilling Fluid Equipment's High Volume Centrifuge is a ruggedly constructed, low maintenance skid mounted decanter, designed specifically for operation in harsh environments and remote locations.

A decanting centrifuge is a tertiary piece of solids control equipment. It's major function is to be the "polisher" in a solids control system , removing the smaller sized drill solids that are not taken out upstream. The centrifugal force developed inside the centrifuge literaly throws the drill solids out of the drilling fluid. Centrifuges typically remove drill solids down to 5 - 10 micron.

DFE 600 x 900 High Volume Centrifuge is unique from competitive equipment in that the rotating bowl assembly is mounted separately from the skid via wedge type vibration isolators. This feature eliminates bowl frequency vibrations being transmitted to the electrical switchgear, hydraulic system and mounting platform.

The unit comes complete with either variable speed skid mounted electric feed pumps, or an integral hydraulic driven variable speed pump, controlled at the machine. The hydraulic pump system is well suited to installation where minimal space requirements are necessary, or where the location of the fee supply changes.

DFE is a first choice supplier for solids control centrifuges in Australasia. Our machines are renowned for their reliability and ease of operation, and are constructed to the highest standards.
