Benefits

  • Unique Nozzle Design

    • Straight-forward nozzle installation using a unique nozzle and tool system (Patent #6,216,959). Fluid-Quip’s unique nozzle tool enables nozzle installation, and removal through the opening of underflow volute.
    • Patented nozzles have an improved carbide insert flow passage and a unique removal slot that allows our removal tool to grab onto the nozzle for installation and removal.

  • Easy Inspection, Adjustment, and Monitoring

    • Inspection port in underflow volute allows nozzles to be inspected and replaced without raising the bowl or removing the housing.
    • Slide-mounted motor supports work with an adjustment screw to quickly adjust belt tension.
    • Improved lock ring design allows for consistent, simple, and safe removal, time after time.
    • Local panels are offered for monitoring both bearing temperatures, vibration, lubrication rate, and RPM
    • Many internal rotating components are interchangeable with existing models.

  • Design Features and Specifications

    • Heavy Duty construction minimizes vibration and ensures structural stability. All outer housing components are constructed of 316 stainless steel. The bowl, hub, and cover are made of Ferallium.
    • Wash water injected directly into the bowl to allow for increased wash rates and improved washing efficiency.
    • Ferallium 255 Bowl, hub, and cover. All other process contact parts, including housing made of 316 stainless steel.
    • Carbon Steel base, column, and radial arm.
    • Oil drip bearing lubrication system (oil recirculation system available)
    • Vibration monitor and bearing temperature monitor
    • Built-in hydraulic hoist actuated by external hydraulic power system

  • Inspection Port

    Inspections ports on underflow volutes work in conjunction with our special nozzle removal tool to allow operators to inspect or change nozzles without disassembling the machine housing and raising the bowl.

  • Centrifuge Expertise

    • Count on Fluid-Quip to be there for you anytime that assistance is needed with a new or existing centrifuge. Our design, process, and maintenance experts are available to assist from our office or at your plant for emergency problems, routine maintenance, process optimization, or operator / maintenance training.
    • Our expert service team can also provide all your rebuild needs for existing machines, including complete machine restorations, conversions, and bowl repairs, for any machine, regardless of the make or model.

  • Models FQC-800, FQC-800T, and FQC-800E

    • Straightforward nozzle installation using a unique nozzle and tool system (Patent #6,216,959). Fluid-Quip’s unique nozzle tool enables nozzle installation, and removal through the opening of the underflow volute. Fluid-Quip uses a patented Nozzle design (Patent #6,511,005) with improved flow passages along with increased wear protection. Bowl, hub, and cover are made with a duplex alloy Ferralium 255 with high strength and superior wear resistance. Local panels are offered for monitoring both bearing temperatures, vibration, lubrication rate, and RPM. A 4-20 mA signal can be relayed to the central controller. The adjustable lubrication system provides optimum lubrication while reducing operating temperature. Oil is provided to the system by drip and is monitored by a fiber optic sensor. The drip rate is displayed on a local panel, and a 4-20 mA signal is relayed to the central controller.
    • Fluid-Quip offers a 30” MST and Clarifier with grind rate capacities up to 40,000 BPD (1000 MTPD). Fluid-Quip’s 30” Primary with grind rate capacities up to 20,000BPD (500 MTPD). Fluid-Quip’s 30” GT with grind rate capacities up to 20,000 BPD (500 MTPD).
