The Sharples P3400 sanitary decanter centrifuge, 316SS. is engineered for high-performance separation in various industrial applications, particularly in the food processing sector. With a maximum bowl speed of 4000 RPM, this centrifuge ensures efficient separation of solids and liquids, making it ideal for applications such as fishmeal processing. The 360-degree cake ports facilitate optimal cake discharge, enhancing operational efficiency and minimizing downtime. The grooved beach design further improves the separation process by increasing the surface area for solid accumulation, thus maximizing throughput while maintaining product integrity.

In addition to its impressive mechanical specifications, the Sharples P3400 is equipped with advanced Clean-In-Place (CIP) features, ensuring that the unit can be thoroughly cleaned without disassembly. This is particularly important in sanitary applications where hygiene is paramount. The sanitary feed nozzles are designed to prevent contamination, ensuring that the product remains pure throughout the separation process. The 4.25 single lead polished and hardsurfaced conveyor is engineered for durability and efficiency, while the robust 40 HP motor, coupled with a 165:1 gearbox, provides the necessary power to handle demanding workloads. The inclusion of a 7.5 HP varispeed backdrive allows for precise control of the conveyor speed, further enhancing the system's adaptability to varying feed conditions.

The Sharples P3400 is not only built for performance but also designed with user safety and maintenance in mind. The unitized sub-base includes guards and vibration isolators, which help to reduce operational noise and enhance stability during operation. This thoughtful design minimizes wear and tear on components, extending the lifespan of the equipment. With its excellent condition and prior use in fishmeal processing, this centrifuge represents a reliable investment for businesses looking to enhance their separation processes while adhering to stringent sanitary standards.
