Vertical Centrifuge

Vertical Cutting Dryer Features and Advantages

Environmental and cost
• Highly effective liquids/solids separation minimizes fluid content of cuttings
• Reduces waste-disposal volumes
• Effective separation reclaims high percentages of fluid that can be reused in the active mud system
• Recovers whole mud lost from shaker failure, rig motion and screen blinding, that is cost- effective
Operational Advantages
• Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), with automatic warning indicators, monitors temperature, torque, oil flow and operating hours
• High-capacity, continuous feed units have the throughput to keep up with drilling
• Tungsten-carbide-coated, independently adjustable flights reduce wear and ensure optimal tolerance
• Handrail and walkways is convenient for operators to do routine maintenance work, that can reduce risk to personnel
• Different kinds of screens can meet various operation requirements
Ease of Maintenance
• Normal wear parts are easily accessible from the top of the unit; belts are easily changed without removing gear assembly
• Interchangeable tungsten carbide flights protect rotor and gear box from excessive erosion, minimizing main component failure
• Explosion-proof motors and control panels can be certified with CE/ATEX

Working principle

Wet cuttings enter the vortex at the top of the unit and fall into the inner separation area. The conical screen basket within the unit rotates, producing an increasing G-force as the cuttings are forced downward and outward of up to 360 times the natural gravitational force (G-Force). As associated mud separates from the cuttings under the induced gravitational forces within the unit, the openings in the screen allows recovered fluid to pass through and exit the unit.
