The ‘PRAGATI’ Centrifuge are elegantly designed with robust construction and are ideal
machines for extraction of water / liquid in Chemical, Textile, Oil and Sugar Industries. The
slurry or the material to be filtered is placed in the basket, whose side is perforated. If the
solid in the slurry is smaller than the perforation, a filter cloth or filter-bag has to be fitted
inside the basket, before charging it. When the machine is started, the basket starts
rotating & with the centrifugal force, the liquid pulls-out leaving the solid material inside the
basket. The machine has central rotating basket made of M.S. / SS or M.S. lined with any
corrosion resisting material such as rubber ( Natural rubber or butyl rubber. ) The basket has ample number of holes for speedy
extraction of mother liquor and is DYNAMICALLY BALANCED. The outer shell is fabricated M.S. / S.S. or MS lined with anti
corrosion material such as natural of butyl rubbers and is suspended on robustly built C. I. pendulum with suspension bolt and
spring and spherical bearings. C. I. Bearing housing supports the special alloy-steel shaft. The steel shaft is made especially for
resisting stresses caused by centrifugal forces resulting from any uneven distribution of the charge in the basket. The main-base
is fabricated out of Mild Steel with heavy bottom plate. Its heavy weight helps the machine to gain rigidity and strength to resist
vibration effectively. Ferodo-lined breaks are sued to give effective breaking. The power supply is automatically disconnected
when breaks are applied. The drive consists of a 1440 R.P.M. / 3 phase, 415-volts, T.E.F.C. Motor and the power is smoothly
transmitted through the motor clutch pulley fitted on the motor shaft to the basket by means of ‘V’ belts.
