This article explains these steps in detail for your reference during use. Experience the benefits of increased service life and long-term value with the correct operation and commissioning of our top-of-the-line tubular centrifuges. This article offers an in-depth, expert overview of the key steps to ensure you get the most out of your purchase.
Operation of tubular centrifuge
Preparation
Inspection and installation: Before starting the machine, you must first check whether each component is installed correctly, especially the installation of the drum. Make sure that the steel-stamped arrow mark on the triangular plate is aligned with the steel-stamped mark on the drum, and install the paint cloth, lower end cover and other components in sequence. Proper installation ensures smooth and accurate operation. Follow the steel-stamped arrow and mark for perfect alignment, and carefully install the necessary components starting with the paint cloth, and ending with the lower end cover.
Adding lubricating oil: Add an appropriate amount of lubricating oil to the sliding bearing to ensure its good lubrication. The oil cup on the upper end of the equipment needs to be tightened half a turn every 2-3 days of operation to ensure continuous lubrication. It’s specifically designed for long-term use of your equipment. Regular maintenance includes adding an appropriate amount of lubricating oil to the sliding bearing to ensure its good lubrication, and tightening the oil cup on the upper end of the equipment every 2-3 days of operation.
Connecting pipes: Locate the outlet position of the effusion tray, connect the feed and discharge pipes, press the protective screw sleeve, and then close the door. The effusion tray is designed for easy installation and optimal functionality. Connecting pipes is a simple process – just locate the outlet position and connect the feed and discharge pipes. The protective screw sleeve ensures secure connections, while the door provides a seal for maximum efficiency.
Startup and operation
Start the centrifuge: first press the power switch once or twice to ensure that there is no abnormal sound before officially starting. After the motor starts, wait for the drum to reach the predetermined speed and run stably for a period of time (usually 2 minutes) before opening the inlet valve for centrifugal operation. Safely and efficiently handle fluids with this high-tech centrifuge. The motor ensures optimal speed and stability, allowing you to confidently begin your work.
Feeding and monitoring: During the centrifugation process, it is necessary to select a suitable feed nozzle according to the process requirements and control the feed amount within a reasonable range to avoid overloading due to excessive feeding. At the same time, pay close attention to the operating status of the centrifuge. If there is any abnormality, stop the machine immediately for inspection. Choose the appropriate feed nozzle for the centrifuge process and maintain a controlled feed amount to prevent overloading. Keep a careful eye on the centrifuge’s operation and stop immediately for inspection if there are any irregularities.
Stop and unload
Stop feeding: After separation, stop feeding first. Cut off power: After the centrifuge stops naturally (it cannot be stopped by any forced method), cut off the power. With this product, you can ensure that the centrifuge runs safely and efficiently. Following the correct procedures, you can easily stop feeding and cut off the power to prevent damage to the machine.
Unloading and cleaning: When the speed drops to a lower level, collect the residual liquid and remove the drum and other parts for cleaning. After cleaning, reassemble the drum and other parts for next use. A time-saving and efficient way to maintain your product’s peak performance – simply collect residual liquid and remove and clean the drum and other components. No complex processes or extensive cleaning required, just easily reassemble and your product is ready for use.
Tubular centrifuge commissioning
Parameter adjustment
Speed adjustment: adjust the speed of the centrifuge according to experimental or production requirements. For digital tube centrifuges, the speed value can be adjusted and saved through the parameter editing state. Achieve optimum results with the convenience of speed adjustment. Whether you’re conducting experiments or producing materials, our digital tube centrifuges allow you to easily adjust and save speed values for a customized experience. With the ability to tailor speed to your specific needs, you can trust in precise and reliable outcomes every time.
Time setting: set the time required for centrifugation, the time unit is usually minutes, and the countdown starts after running. This feature allows you to precisely control the duration of centrifugation, typically measured in minutes. Simply set the desired time and the countdown will begin upon activation, ensuring optimal results every time.
Balance and stability
Check the vibration: After installing the drum and other components, you need to circle and shake the drum to check whether its vibration is too large to ensure the stable operation of the centrifuge. Expert engineers designed this product to ensure efficient and consistent performance. The centrifuge has been rigorously tested and is guaranteed to have minimal vibration, ensuring stable and reliable operation.
Adjust the position: Make sure all components are installed correctly and in the right position to maintain the balance of the centrifuge. This centrifuge is designed to optimize performance and safety. The correct installation of all components is crucial for maintaining precise balance and ensuring reliable results.
Troubleshooting
Abnormal handling: If an abnormal situation occurs during the operation of the centrifuge (such as abnormal sound, excessive vibration, etc.), the power supply should be cut off immediately and the feeding should be stopped for inspection and handling.
Regular inspection: Regularly check the wear of each bearing, conveyor belt and floating sleeve. If there is wear, it should be replaced in time to avoid affecting the normal use of the centrifuge.
Maintenance and care
Regular lubrication: According to the use situation, add appropriate amount of lubricating oil or grease to each part of the centrifuge regularly to ensure its good operation.
Cleaning and maintenance: After each production task is completed, the drum, feed pipe, discharge pipe and other parts in contact with the material should be cleaned in time to prevent the residue from corroding the equipment or affecting the next use effect.
