Very good condition.

The Westfalia CA 220-110 gas-tight decanter, 316SS. is engineered for high-performance separation applications, particularly in industries where contamination control is paramount. With a maximum bowl speed of 4000 RPM, this decanter is capable of efficiently separating solids from liquids, making it an ideal choice for processes involving inks, chemicals, and other viscous materials. The flat angle bowl design enhances the separation process by maximizing the surface area available for sedimentation, ensuring optimal efficiency and throughput. The inclusion of wear liners on the cake ports further extends the lifespan of the equipment, allowing for consistent performance even under demanding operational conditions.

Equipped with a robust 15 HP motor operating at 460 volts, 3-phase, 60 Hz, the Westfalia CA 220-110 decanter is powered by a cyclo gearbox that features a pinion and pulley backdrive system. This configuration not only ensures reliable operation but also minimizes maintenance needs, allowing for uninterrupted production cycles. The pressure discharge of effluent is a critical feature that enhances the decanter's ability to handle various materials, providing a clean and efficient method for discharging separated liquids. Additionally, the inclusion of vibration isolators and chutes contributes to the overall stability and safety of the operation, reducing wear and tear on the equipment and ensuring compliance with safety standards.

Prior to its availability, this decanter was utilized in the ink industry, showcasing its versatility and capability in handling complex separation tasks. Despite being a vintage model from 1974, it remains in very good condition, reflecting the durability and quality of Westfalia's engineering. This gas-tight design not only prevents the escape of volatile compounds but also ensures a safer working environment, making it an excellent investment for facilities looking to enhance their separation processes while maintaining stringent safety protocols.
