MAXIMIZING PERFORMANCE, EFFICIENCY AND OPERATIONAL SIMPLICITY WITH THE MOST INNOVATIVE DECANTING CENTRIFUGE AVAILABLE
Centrifuges are used to process unweighted and weighted, water-based and oil-based drilling fluids (muds). The HS-2172 series centrifuge uses high G-forces to separate fine solids from liquid.
Two models are available:
The HS-2172 centrifuge is fed from the solids end of the conveyor. Mud is introduced into the feed chamber of the HS-2172L through a feed tube and with the aid of a concave accelerator, exits through twelve (12) nozzles into the bowl.
The HS-2172MM centrifuge is fed from the liquid end of the conveyor. Mud is introduced into the feed chamber through a feed tube and, with the assistance of built-in “S” shaped accelerators, exits into the bowl through two (2) elongated windows. A Canadian version of the HS-2172MM is available and utilizes 575V, as opposed to 480V. Both the HS-2172L and the HS-2172MM models are able to exert up to 2,684 G’s on the mud.
All versions of the HS-2172 are equipped with variable frequency drive (VFD) control, which provides a controlled application of motor drive power to the centrifuge components (bowl, conveyor and feed pump). Customized hardware and software packages can be designed to meet specific installation and operational requirements. With processing capacity of up to 550 gal/min (2082 lit/min), the HS-2172 series centrifuge is able to quickly process high volumes of mud while allowing prescribed mud weights and separation efficiencies to be maintained. This enables the HS-2172 series centrifuge to produce fine cut points at higher flow rates, making it ideal for high-flow applications and critical-conditions solids control.
