Vertical peeler centrifuge VBC-S
This new development of the centrifuge type VBC-S (Vertical Bottom discharge Centrifuge - Swivel Open Housing) extend the existing range type VBC. The centrifuge was specially designed for use in the demanding pharmaceutical industry.
The centrifuge housing can be swivelled open completely, which permits excellent inspection outside and below the centrifuge basket. Additionally, the optional cover opening permits best inspection of the internals in the centrifuge cover.
Features
- Robust design in accordance with the latest standards/GMP requirements
- Swivel open housing for optimum inspection of the process area
- Reliable sealing of the bearing housing with sealing systems of the latest generation
- Easy maintenance due to modular design
- Suitable for potentially explosive areas according to directive 2014/34/EU (ATEX)
