 | Complete overview of the centrifuge and heater. The heater adds an additional 6" of height and 6" of depth to the centrifuge. |
 | This angle of the heater assembly illustrates how the heater is bolted to the back of the centrifuge. The additional holes in the back of the heater assembly will be filled with plugs for additional wiring options. This picture also illustrates the proper installation strategy of the electric ball valve to the heater assembly. With the addition of the electric ball valve and a digital timer the oil cleaning process is completely automated. The plumbing from the Feeder Tank can be accomplished with a barb (as shown in picture) connecting to clear vinyl hosing, or can be hard plumbed to the electric ball valve with PVC. |
 | Close up of PID Temperature controller illustrating the display characteristics, the bottom GREEN numerical display is the desired temperature setting and the top RED numerical display is the real-time oil temperature reading. |
 | CNC machined corrosion resistant aluminum bowl. Side view of bowl illustrating reduction of wall thickness eliminating unnecessary load on motor due to excessive weight. *If bought separately it comes with a Baldor Motor and a machined and registered aluminum motor mount, ensuring centrifuge bowl/motor compatibility.
Weight of Bowl= less than 2.75lb (1.25kg)
Oil Volume= 22.4 fl oz (0.66L) |
 | 1/2inch X 6inch (1.27cm X 15.2cm) diameter motor mount used to register the face of the motor to the enclosure. This increases the surface contact between the motor and the enclosure thus reducing vibration and noise. Motor mount is compatible with many different 56J motor manufacturers. |

Dimensions= 15.25in X 15.25in X 16.25in (38.7cm X 38.7cm X 41.3cm)
Dry Weight of Complete Unit= ~60lb (27.2kg) |
 | Side view of unit and steel fitting on the right side is the exit for leftover oil, water, and debris from bowl when centrifuge stops spinning. |
 | Left side view of unit showing power socket. |
 | Top view of unit without lid and with centrifuge bowl installed. 3 drainage holes present in centrifuge bowl for leftover oil, water and debris drainage. Threaded 1/2 inch fitting in upper right hand side is exit for clean oil. |
 | Top view of unit without lid and without centrifuge bowl. Collar and V-ring slinger ensures that oil does not run down motor shaft and into motor. Welded barrier around bowl provides leak proof boundary between dirty and cleaned oil. Threaded 1/2 inch fitting inside barrier is exit for leftover oil, water and debris from bowl. Threaded 1/2 inch fitting in upper right hand side is exit for cleaned oil. |
 | Top view of the unit without the lid and with the centrifuge bowl installed illustrating the aluminum quick disconnect attaching the oil dispensing outlet to the rest of the dirty WVO plumbing. |
 | Top view of the unit without the lid and with the centrifuge bowl installed illustrating how the quick disconnect releases the oil dispensing outlet for fast and easy removal of the bowl for cleaning purposes. Most of the debris will be cleaned by the provided silicone scraper, but there may be times when the bowl will need to be removed for cleaning the hard to remove debris. |
 | A dirty bowl after cleaning 100 gallons of WVO at ~120ºF. This picture illustrates the possible need to remove the centrifuge bowl for cleaning. This is the exact reason the quick disconnect is implemented on our centrifuge system. |
 | The above pictured bowl after removing it and cleaning the caked debris from cleaning 100 gallons of WVO at ~120ºF. Removing and reinstalling the bowl is quick and easy by opening the two tabs, removing the oil dispensing outlet and removing 3/4" flange nut. |
