Sift,
scalp, de-dust, 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.
