APGLW355x1258N is high speed centrifuge decanter used in drilling fluids process for oil and gas drilling. The centrifuge can be used separated in solids control system, or used together with the middle speed centrifuge. Besides fine cuttings removal, the APGLW355x1258 centrifuge can get the barite recycled.

Working principle of centrifuge

The working principle of horizontal screw centrifuge is very simple. It has been known by the public for a century. The drum and screw are supported by separate suspension.The material enters through the inlet pipe and accelerates into the core drum body through the drum.

General information of APGLW355x1258 centrifuge

Centrifuge here is also referred as the centrifuge decanter or decanting centrifuge. High speed centrifuge speed is 2800-3200rpm. And for the high speed centrifuge, suggest the VFD high speed centrifuge. Centrifuge is set after the mud cleaner or the desilter. As we know the desilter cone theoretically remove solids larger than 15 microns. While centrifgue can remove 2-7 microns cuttings. The high speed centrifuge can get rid of 2-5 microns particles.

AIPU 355 centrifuge holding drum sized 355x1258mm. Means the drum diameter and length. The main motor is 30kw or 37kw according to different demand, the back drive motor can be 7.5kw and 11kw accordingly. While the feeding pump (submersible slurry or the screw pump) is usually 7.5kw. The material of wet parts can be S.S304L or the Dupex 2205 stainless steel

The maximum flow rate of the APGLW355 centrifuge is 35m³/h at rate of 3200rpm. However, when the speed varies the centrifuge flow rate varies, too.

Why AIPU APGLW355 centrifuge decanter?

From the raw material to the test prior to delivery, AIPU provide all issues high quality. And we implement the strict QC regulations. Centrifuge is a rather mature equipment in drilling fluids process. Compared to other brand or models, AIPU centrifuge is more competitive and easy to maintain. As solids control manufacturer, we are rather professional and providing the optimal solutions.

And AIPU provides the customization service on many different aspects. Such as the color, the base design, the motor electrical sytem, the necessary certificates, etc.

AIPU High speed centrifuge spare parts

Main spare parts including the bearing, oil seal, the coupling, the cushion base, the fuse, etc. These are rather easy to get in the market and cost little.

Other application of APGLW 355 centrifuges

As we introduced before, the centriuges can be used not only in drilling fluids process. They can be used in many industry. Related to oil and gas industry or the drilling industry, they can be used in slurry separation, the sludge treatment, the waste management, and so on.

And in drilling fluids system, they are used to recycle or relcaim the barite, too. When we use both middle speed centrifuge and high speed centrifuge, the high speed one will be set behind the middle speed one.

Do you have any demand on centrifuges? No matter for solids control or for drilling waste management,or for the slurry separation and sludge treatment. Please feel free to contact us.
