Sift, Scalp, De-lump and De-water Virtually Any Bulk Solid or Slurry
The Kason Centri-Sifter® is
a versatile, high capacity, compact and economical
centrifugal sifter used for screening a wide variety of powders or granular
materials, including chemicals, plastics and resins, foods, dairy products,
pharmaceuticals and biologicals. This equipment is the ideal choice
for continuous scalping of dry or moist materials, even those that tend
to ball or agglomerate as these units delump and deagglomerate while
screening. The Centri-Sifter Screener is also extremely effective as
a liquid/solids separator.
Broad model range solves specialized
problems
Centri-Sifter
centrifugal sifters are designed for gravity-fed applications, and for
sifting in-line with pneumatic conveying systems. They are available
as single and twin models and low profile units, and offered in a broad
range of standard, modified, and custom configurations. All are available
with belt drive or direct drive. Units may be free-standing or adapted
for easy mounting on new or existing process equipment. On gravity-fed
models, a large access door allows inspection and cleaning. In-line
pneumatic units offer large ports for inspection. Removable end housings
allow rapid cleaning and screen changes. Centri-Sifter separators meet
the most stringent worldwide sanitary standards including USDA, FDA,
3-A, and BISSC. Special finishes and materials also make these sifters
suitable for biochemical and pharmaceutical applications.
Screen options
The choice of separating media includes nylon and other monofilament
cloth, woven wire in selected metals, perforated plate screen, and wedge
wire. Wedge wire screens are preferred when sifting large, dense particles
with angular shapes, oversize lumps or when it is important that contaminating
debris must be prevented from entering processing streams. Kason's wedge
wire screens are rugged, durable and provide a high degree of on-stream
reliability.
Anti-blinding devices speed
production, reduce maintenance
Kason offers
a variety of devices that increase production by combating screen blinding.
These devices reduce the clearance between the rotating paddle and the
cylindrical screen without contacting or abrading the screen. Narrowing
the gap between the rotating element and the screen surface enhances
screening rates under near size conditions, thereby increasing throughput.
