Vertical centrifuges for pharmaceuticals - top-emptying

Top-discharge centrifuges: versatile designs and increased operational safety

SCVT - SULTRADE CENTRIFUGE VERTICAL TOP
SCVT Vertical centrifuges with top discharge are designed specifically for pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, where high demands are placed on process purity, safety and reproducibility of production.

These pharmaceutical centrifuges allow gentle separation of crystalline products from the mother liquors and their subsequent washing directly in the centrifuge. The design of the plant meets strict requirements for hygienic design and can be designed in accordance with GMP standards.

The equipment can be supplemented with automated systems for CIP/SIP cleaning, inerting or working in ATEX environments.

Vertical centrifuges SCVT are particularly suitable for:

  • production of crystalline pharmaceutical products...
  • production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs)
  • fine chemistry
  • biotechnological processes

Material of centrifuges and accessories:

  • stainless steel 1.4404 (1.4435) / 1.4571
  • Special alloy 2.4602 (Hastelloy C-22)
  • Special Teflon (E-CTFE) coatings

The surface finish can be:

  • ground Ra <0,8 μm
  • polished Ra <0,2 μm

Top-emptying centrifuges can be designed with:

  • manual emptying
  • removable basket with bag
  • pneumatically operated cutting knife with subsequent pneumatic transport of the product
  • Centrifuge cleaning can be done by:
  • CIP cascade cleaning
  • centrifuge flooding

Optional centrifuge design and accessories can be:

  • main electric motor with upward or downward direction
  • motor cover for external ventilation for clean room
  • lid fully/partially openable
  • equipment for inerting the inner space of the centrifuge
  • RHR - Removal of residual product layer
  • suspension device (f
  • filling (flow meters, fittings, hoses, compensators...)
  • rinsing (valves, hoses, compensators...)
  • Product route (pneumatic transport, containers, valves, special fittings)
  • fluid route (siphon, hydrocyclone, compensators, mother fluid reservoirs, pumps)
  • centrifuge stand

VPT vacuum product containers are supplied with SCVT centrifuges as an accessory to carry out the transport of the centrifuged product in the centrifuge buoyancy via a closed route. The VPT product vacuum tanks are available in different sizes and material versions, either mobile or fixed, depending on the size of the charge and the type of product to be centrifuged. The product is emptied from the VPT vacuum container into the container without contact with the external environment.
