1.1 Overview
The separator comprises a process section and a
drive section powered by an electric motor.
The separator frame comprises a lower body and
a frame hood. The motor is attached to the
frame. The frame feet dampen vibration.
The bottom part of the separator contains a flat
belt transmission, a centrifugal clutch and a
vertical spindle. The lower body also contains an
oil bath for lubrication of spindle bearings.

Separator bowl
The separator bowl, with its sludge discharge
mechanism, is built-up as follows:
The bowl body and bowl hood are held together
by a lock ring (Centrilock). Inside the bowl are
the distributor and the disc stack. The disc stack
is kept compressed by the bowl hood. The
discharge slide forms a separate bottom in the
bowl body.
The upper space between the bowl hood and the
top disc forms the water paring chamber and
contains the paring tube, which pumps the
separated water out of the bowl. The oil paring
chamber, with its paring disc, is located inside
the top of the distributor. From here the cleaned
oil is pumped out of the bowl.
The sludge space is in the bowl periphery. The
bowl is kept closed by the discharge slide, which
seals against a seal ring in the bowl hood.
At fixed intervals, decided by the operator, the
discharge slide drops down to empty the bowl of
sludge.
The sludge discharge mechanism, which controls
the movement of the discharge slide, is
comprised of an operating slide and an operating
water device. Passive parts are: nozzle and valve
plugs. The operating water cover, beneath the
bowl, supplies operating water to the discharge
mechanism via the operating water ring.

2.4.1 Scope
This document gives information,
requirements, and recommendations about
operational procedures and signal processing
for safe and reliable operation of the
separator. It is intended to be used for
designing auxiliary equipment and control
systems for the separator.
2.4.2 References
This Interface Description is one complementary
document to the separator. Other such
documents that contain necessary information
and are referred to here are:

2.4.3 Definitions
For the purpose of this document, the following
definitions apply:
• Synchronous speed: The speed the machine
will attain when it is driven by a three phase
squirrel-cage induction motor and there is no
slip in the motor and the drive system.
• Full speed: The synchronous speed minus
normal slip.
2.4.4 Goal
To eliminate situations that can cause harm, i.e.
injury, damage to health or property and
unsatisfactory process result are e.g.:
Situation Effect
Unbalance caused by uneven sediment Too high stress on bowl and bearing
accumulation in the bowl. system which might cause harm.
Too high bowl speed. Too high stress on bowl which might
cause harm.

Starting means:
• The power to the separator motor is on.
• The bowl is rotating and accelerating
Running means:
• The power to the separator motor is on.
• The bowl is rotating at full speed.
• RUNNING is a collective denomination for a
number of sub modes which e.g. can be:
– STAND BY: Separator is in a waiting mode
and not producing.
– PRODUCTION: Separator is fed with
product and producing.
– CLEANING: Separator is fed with cleaning
liquids with the intention to clean the
separator.
1810929-02 19

Stopping means:
• The power to the separator motor is off.
• The bowl is rotating and decelerating.
• STOPPING is a collective denomination for a
number of sub modes which e.g. can be:
– NORMAL STOP: A manually or
automatically initiated stop.
– SAFETY STOP: An automatically initiated
stop at too high vibrations.
– EMERGENCY STOP: A manually initiated
stop at emergency situations. This stop will
be in effect until it is manually reset.
Electrical connections
701 Separator motor.
The separator is equipped with a 3-phase DOL -
(direct on line) started motor. The separator can
also be started by a Y/D starter, but then the
time in Y-position must be maximized to 5
seconds.

3.3.1 Introduction
To disconnect the oil inlet, oil outlet, and
water outlet, undo the two screws on the
connection plate. Hook the plate, together
with the three hoses, to the edge of the small
work table to avoid oil draining from the
hoses.
The frame hood and heavy bowl parts must
be lifted by means of a hoist. Position the
hoist exactly above the bowl centre. Use a
lifting sling and lifting hooks with safety
catches.
