P2000 Vertical Peeler
The BIRD PROCESS 2000 Vertical Peeler Centrifuge incorporates state-of-the-art, PC-based, computer-driven process controls to maximize product yields and provide multi-product flexibility. Designed to meet the needs of high, value-added pharmaceutical and fine chemical markets, the BIRD PROCESS 2000 Vertical Peeler Centrifuge can exceed the performance of existing inverting filter centrifuge (IFC) and horizontal peeler technologies in most applications, and at a lower invested cost.

The PROCESS 2000 Centrifuge offers high separational forces (between 1,000 and 1,450 G's) for reduced cycle times and product moistures; a full-opening case for quick and complete CIP validation; a patented feed system that ensures even cake distribution while reducing dewatering times.

Special design and automated controls are all geared towards one central objective -- maximum product yields in multi-product environments. Its superior CIP system and full-opening case reduce the time required for cleaning and validation. Basket accessibility also aids in the rapid change-out of filter media between campaigns.

These combined features give operators the information needed to optimize cycle times, ability to address maintenance schedule notices, and prevent unexpected shutdowns. The centrifuge variable frequency AC electric drive is designed to improve productivity. The VFD efficiency helps reduce overall cycle times.

Advantages:

  • Increased productivity through improved product yields
  • Maximum operator and product isolation
  • Greater production flexibility through enhanced cGMP design
  • Shortened product-to-market time
  • Maximum productivity and on-line reliability through computer-based process control
