rebuilt disc bowl self cleaning solids 1.25 kg/dm3, heavy solid 1.1 kg/dm3, The product flows into the bowl through inlet and is separated in disk stack into a light and a heavy liquid phase with simultaneous removal of the solids which collect in the sediment holding space. The light liquid phase flows towards the center and is discharged foam-free and under pressure by centrifugal pump through outlet. The heavy liquid phase flows to the periphery and is discharged under pressure by centrifugal pump through outlet. The separated gums and solids collect in sediment holding space and are instantaneously ejected through ports at pre-set intervals by lowering the sliding piston. Closing water drains via the bowl valve. The ejection cycles are initiated by a control unit

Inlet Diameter: 40 mm (1.57 in). RPM Maximum: 6,450.

When your process demands precise, continuous separation of immiscible liquids or fine solids from liquids, disc bowl centrifuges offer superior performance for critical applications. With more than 47 years of experience, IPP offers immediate access to high-quality used disc bowl centrifuges sourced from 20 complete plant sites and included in our inventory of over 15,000 ready-to-ship pieces of equipment. Choosing used disc bowl centrifuges from IPP provides companies with faster project timelines, significant cost savings, and proven process reliability.

Disc bowl centrifuges, also known as disc stack centrifuges, operate by spinning a series of conical discs at high speeds to enhance the separation of solids and liquids or two immiscible liquids with different densities. They are essential for processes requiring continuous clarification, purification, or concentration.

Primary uses across industries

In pharmaceutical production, disc bowl centrifuges clarify cell cultures, vaccines, and fermentation broths.
In chemical manufacturing, they separate fine particles from reaction mixtures or recover valuable solvents.
In food and beverage processing, they purify edible oils, dairy products, and juices.
In biotechnology, disc centrifuges harvest biomass, proteins, and enzymes efficiently.
In marine and energy sectors, they purify fuel oils and lube oils to protect engines and turbines.

Types of materials processed

Liquids containing fine suspended solids
Two immiscible liquids requiring separation (e.g., oil and water)
Cell cultures, fermentation broths, and biological suspensions
Solvent-based chemical mixtures needing clarification

Common materials of construction

Disc bowl centrifuges are manufactured to withstand demanding chemical, biological, and sanitary environments:
Stainless steel for sanitary and general-purpose chemical applications
Hastelloy for highly corrosive or pharmaceutical-grade operations
Special high-strength alloys for high-pressure or extreme chemical exposures

Key features of disc bowl centrifuges

Continuous separation capability for high-throughput operations
Integrated solids discharge options (manual, semi-automatic, or automatic)
High centrifugal force for efficient separation of fine particles and droplets
Hygienic design options for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications
Small footprint with high separation efficiency

Centrifuge-Disc Bowl FAQ

Have questions about Disc Bowl Centrifuges or our services? Learn more about our products and why customers choose IPP.

Pharmaceutical, food, chemical, biotechnology, marine, and energy industries depend on disc bowl centrifuges for high-efficiency liquid clarification and purification.

Disc bowl centrifuges offer continuous, high-speed separation for fine solids and liquids, while basket centrifuges are typically used for batch dewatering of larger solids.

Routine inspection and cleaning of the disc stack, bowl, seals, and bearings—along with monitoring of drive systems—ensures optimal separation performance and long-term reliability.

Buying used from IPP saves up to 70% compared to new equipment, provides immediate availability, supports sustainable business practices, and leverages IPP’s 47 years of industry knowledge.
