Filterless Centrifuge

The Continuous Flow Filterless Centrifuge is effective for recovery of mineral filler fines from bitumen-laden nonflammable solvents from asphalt mix extraction tests. Solvent suspension is fed through a top funnel through a regulating valve into a special aluminum beaker spinning at 11,000 rpm. At the high rpm the liquid moves up the beaker wall and out the overflow tube while the solids remain in the beaker due to the centrifugal force. It has controlled acceleration and top speed is reached quickly. Dynamic braking controls stopping. Complies with ASTM D1856. Comes with one #18 sieve and one #200 sieve, and two beakers.
