1.2 Correct usage


The control system
" is used to ensure automatic ejection and process monitoring of mineral oil
separators of the OSD and OSE series.
" is rated in accordance with the method of application of the separator agreed
with Westfalia Separator. Refer to the data sheet and contractual agreements.
The electronic control system triggers total ejections of the bowl at adjustable in-
tervals with or without displacement of the liquid from the bowl.
The following ejections can be selected for the separators stated:
- Partial ejections
Partial ejection of the bowl means partial emptying of the solids space of
the bowl. The product feed is shut off during partial ejection.
- Total ejections
In the case of a total ejection, virtually the complete bowl content is emptied
and collected in the solids vessel after closing the product valve and draw-
ing off the residual liquid.
Never initiate a total ejection when the separator is vibrating strongly
(bowl unbalance)!

- Pre-selectable partial ejections followed by a total ejection

For perfect clarifying efficiency and low ejection losses on the separator, the
time-dependent program cycle requires the solids content in the feed material
not to vary too much.
The separators with the UNITROL system have two inbuilt monitoring functions:
- WMS (Water content Monitoring System)
- SMS (Sludge Space Monitoring System)
Separators of the D I E generation can be upgraded for one-stage WMS/SMS
operation.
For details concerning specific functions refer to the corresponding chapters of
this manual.

Intended use involves


• adhering to these safety instructions and to the instruction manuals for the
control system and for the separator
.. paying attention to safety markings in/on the control cabinet
" adhering to the data on the nameplate, e.g. the rated voltage
The contractually agreed conditions agreed with Westfalia Separator on the in-
tended use of the control system must be passed on to the operating personnel
by the plant operator.

Any operating mode deviating from this is not intended use and can result
in severe damage to property and persons!

8555-9000-010/1207

1.6 Explosion protection

., Strictly adhere to the prevailing local


rules and regulations for operating in
potentially explosive areas.
An area is "potentially explosive"
when there is (or must be expected)
an explosive atmosphere in such a
volume that specific preventive
measures concerning design, con-
struction, and the use of centrifuges
and control systems are required.

Fig. 17

., The operation of centrifuges I control systems in "zone O" areas, i.e.


where a dangerous explosive atmosphere is prevailing continuously or
for long periods or frequently, is not permitted!
" Operation of the centrifuges I control systems in
- areas of "zone 1'', i.e. in areas in which dangerous explosive atmosphere is
occasionally present,
- areas of "zone 2", i.e. in areas in which dangerous explosive atmosphere
are rarely and briefly present,
is only admissible when the centrifuge I control system is equipped for use in
explosion-hazarded areas.
" Centrifuges installed in explosion-hazarded rooms can be operated by means
of a control panel installed in the vicinity of the centrifuge. The control system
is then installed outside the explosion-hazarded room.
• Only units designed for application in "ex" zones are allowed to be operated in
potentially explosive areas.
" All the electrical apparatus of the centrifuge/plant, i.e. motor controls, valve
controls, electric heaters, heater control units, electrically operated valves
must be protected accordingly or, if in standard design, must be installed in a
separate room outside the explosion-hazarded area.
" Supervisory equipment on the centrifuge such as pressure guards or transmit-
ters, flow detectors and temperature switches, pressure switches, must be
connected to intrinsically safe Eex(i) electric circuits.
" In the area close to the centrifuge/control system, take the preventive
measures provided under "primary" explosion protection" (ventilation, etc.).
• Carry out voltage equalization before operating the centrifuge I control sys-
tem.

1.6.1 Classification of the centrifuge I plant


The centrifuge/plant complies with the requirements of Group 11, Equipment
Category 3 in accordance with the Directive 94/9/EG. The respective tempera-
ture class is specified in the technical documents.

8555-9000-010/1207

1.6.2 Obligations of the operator


The operator
" must assess the explosion risks and carry out the zone classification.
" rnust ensure that the centrifuge/installation is correctly erected and tested be-
fore commissioning.
.. is responsible for the safety aspects of his centrifuge/installation.
The correct and proper condition of the centrifuge/installation must be main-
tained by regular testing and maintenance.

1 .6.3 Standards and guidelines


The following standards, guidelines and regulations must be observed when us-
ing equipment in explosion-hazarded areas:

" Directive 94/9/EG (ATEX 95)


Equipment and protective systems for correct usage in explosion-hazarded
areas.

occurrence of sparks and arcs in the inside or at the outside of components of
electrical apparatus which do not otherwise occur in normal operation.
Main application:
Terminal and connector boxes, control boxes for fitting ex-components which
have a different type of protection and lamps.

" EN 50020 or IEC 60 079-11


Electrical safety for explosion-hazarded areas - intrinsically safe "i".
Basic principle:
The apparatus used in explosion-hazarded areas contains only intrinsically
safe circuits. A circuit is intrinsically safe when no spark and no thermal effect
which occur under defined test conditions (which include normal operation
and certain error conditions) can cause ignition of a certain explosive atmos-
phere.
Main application:
Measuring and control technology, communication technology, sensors, actu-
ators.

2. 1 Function
The illuminated four-line LC display provides information on the functional condi-
tions or troubles prevailing on the separator and - depending on program ad-
justment - visualises the corresponding process data.
Besides the control cabinet and the control unit, the control system comprises
all complete line fittings which, due to built-in electrically actuated equipment,
are subject to the control or supervision by the control system. These include:
- dirty-oil supply
- water supply
- operating-water connection
With UNITROL, they also include
- circulation and water discharge valve
- water detector (WMS sensor)
- pressure transmitter for the bypass line in SMS mode

On special order (optional):


- PT100 sensor in a two-wire circuit for min./max monitoring in the dirty oil
supply line
- ievel switch for monitoring the water discharge
- process-dependent control of an external feed pump
- level switch for monitoring the solids vessel
- min./max level switch for controlling a solids pump
- klaxon for audible alarm-signalling
The standard control system is designed for individual control of centrifugal
separators or clarifiers.
If required, in case of two-stage HFO treatment, series operation can be prese-
lected. For this purpose the piping between the separators will have to be laid
out accordingly, in order to connect the MPI interfaces of at least two control
systems.
The control system is built into the door of the control cabinet ready to be
hooked up and programmed for the required control task

The operator is not authorized to carry out program modifications.

The operator can make the follovving settings by means of the keypad:
- machine-specific program selection
- timer value settings
- counter value settings

3.1.1 Function keys


The function keys have a global function: The actions which can be triggered
are independent of the text shown in the display. They each incorporate an LED
which gives information on the state of the respective function.

Key Key designation Description


Separating program "Off' In separation mode, this key closes the feed valve and triggers
a bowl ejection.
On OSC/OSD separators two total ejections are performed au-
tomatically.
The LED lights up when the ejections are being performed.
Separating program "On" This key starts the separating program.
The feed valve is opened when the ejection program has end-
ed.
When the separating temperature falls below its min. level or
when level switch "LSHH solids vessel" responds, no program
start is possible.
The LED lights up when the ejection or separating program is
active.
Lamp test This key launches a function test of the LEDs incorporated in
the keys and of external signal lamps, if provided.
The LEDs for status and fault signalling are not tested.

Series operation When running HFO separators in series, two control systems
can be preselected for this mode within an MPI network. To ac-
tivate series operation, actuate the "SERI ES" key on both con-
trol units.
The LED lights up when series operation is active.

Fault message page This key is to call up the page giving an overview of pending
fault signals, i.e. the alarm memory.
For a pending alarm signal, a remedy catalog can be retrieved
after having acknowledged with the E~HER key.
When the LED is flashing, information on current remedy opera-
tions can be checked by actuating the F1 key.
The LED will flash as long as a fault signal is queued.

3.6.2 User timings


Three groups of timer lists are available:
- User timings
- Timer list 1
- Timer list 2
Only in the "User timings" menu can process-dependent time values be
changed without entering a password. The other two groups are modified by
service staff only.

ATTENTION!
Alter the timer settings only in a passive state. In active state mode, the previ-
ously set time first runs; the time change made does not become effective until
the next activation. All set times run backwards from the entered setpoint and
activate the programmed function when the time has elapsed.

rim
A user timing is changed only when the product is exposed to varying degrees
of contamination or when the water pressure for displacement and filling water
varies (to be gauged by litre now and then). (The required information can be
found in the Installation Guidelines, chapter "Water quantity").
All times are preset in the factory under consideration of the respective separa-
tor model and are adapted to the local conditions during commissioning .

Function Conditions
Ejection monitoring Just before an ejection the operating current is
read off, and the offset value is added. After
the ejection within the time setting of timer 27,
the operating current has to increase by this
value. The offset value is preset on this page.
While in separating mode, launch a total ejec-
tion by means of the "Start" key and observe
the ejection current in the corresponding dis-
play. The ejection current is normally higher
than the rated current in the separating pro-
gram. Enter the difference between ejection
current and separating current (e.g. 2.0 A) as
offset value.
The ejection monitoring will be out of service if
0,0 A has been entered as offset value. This,
however, should be done in exceptional cases
only.
Bowl monitoring For bowl monitoring, the cyclical closing-water
impulse for the bowl hydraulics is checked, i.e.:
if the closing-water rate is too high, the bowl is
opened which causes the current to rise and is
monitored as follows:
- 3 seconds before closing-water impulse in-
jection, the actual operating current of the
separator is measured and stored.
- 3 seconds after closing-water injection, the
measuring operation is repeated, and the
I value is compared with the previous operat-
ing-current value.
If the value differs from the adjusted bowl-
monitoring offset, a corresponding alarm is
signalled; the separating process is not inter-
rupted.

For bowl monitoring, the cyclical closing-water impulse for the bowl hydraulics is
checked, i.e.: if the closing-water rate is too high, the bowl is opened which
causes the current to rise and/or the bowl speed to fall.
Bowl monitoring is controlled as follows:
- 3 seconds before the closing-water injection impulse, the actual operating
current of the separator is measured and memorized.
- 3 seconds after closing-water injection, the measuring operation is repeat-
ed, and the result is compared with the previously registered current and
speed values.
- If a deviation from the permissible offset value is observed, a corresponding
alarm is triggered.
- The separating process remains uninterrupted.

Function
Offset ejection monitoring
Just before an ejection the bowl speed is read, and the offset value is added.
After bowl ejection within the time setting of timer 27, the speed has to de-
crease by this value.
While in separating mode, launch a total ejection by means of the "Start" key
and observe the ejection speed in the corresponding display. Normally the
ejection speed is lower than the separating speed. Enter the difference be-
tween ejection speed and separating speed as offset value.
Example:
(speed in separating mode: 10,000 rpm - ejection speed: 9,700 rpm) - 10 %
= offset speed: 270 rpm
The ejection monitoring is not operative if 0 rpm has been entered as offset
value. This, however, should be done in exceptional cases only.
Offset bowl monitoring
For bowl monitoring, the cyclical closing-water impulse for the bowl hydraulics
is checked, i.e.: if the closing-water rate is too high, the bowl is opened which
causes the speed to fall and is monitored as follows:
- 3 seconds before closing-water injection impulse, the actual speed of the
separator is measured and memorized.
- 3 seconds after closing-water injection, the measuring operation is repeat-
ed, and the value is compared with the previous speed value.
If the value differs by more than 100 rpm, a corresponding alarm is signalled;
the separating process is not interrupted.

3. 7 Changing the Micro Memory Card (MMC)


The control program and all setting/adjustment data are stored on the remova-
ble Micro Memory Card (MMC). If required, these data can be downloaded, e.g.
when the Micro Memory Card (MMC) is inserted in a new control unit.

The control unit cannot be used without the Micro Memory Card (MMC) or with
a defective card. In this case the message "CPU is in stop" will be displayed.

Make sure that the power supply unit is switched off prior to changing the Micro
Memory Card (MMC).

'v"v'hen a new Micro MemOi-y Card (MMC) has been inserted, the 010 unit is in
STOP mode when being switched on for the first time.
" Switch the voltage supply off and on again. The 010 will then be in RUN
mode.

The Micro Memory Card (MMC) must not be read out using commercially avail-
able card readers. The program may be destroyed.
Only the control unit purchased from Separator Mineraloil Systems GmbH can
read the program content on the MMC, and proper operation can be guaran-
teed.

3.8 Memory reset

3.8.1 Setting the jumper

Only qualified staff or authorized specialists are allowed to open the control cab-
inet.

Normally the operating modes RUN, STOP, and MRES cannot be changed us-
ing the operating mode selector of the control cabinet. If, however, this is re-
quired for some reason, e.g. to reset the memory, a jumper has to be connected
between the terminals AT1 and AT2 for activating the authorization.
Whenever the operating mode selector switch is pressed, the status of the con-
trol unit is changed.

5.1 Installation of the control system

General installation instructions


.. Special attention must be paid to the installation guidelines ofWestfalia
Separator.
.. Mount the control system in the vicinity of the separator either on a wall or a
frame.
If you mount the control system on a wall, you must ensure a wall clearance
of approximately 20 mm.

.. Seal the fastening holes on the rear of the control cabinet by putting seals un-
derneath .
., Take into consideration the following criteria when selecting the installation
site:
- Direct sunlight on the display should be avoided if possible to ensure that
the display can be read.
- Heating up of the device by external heat sources should be largely exclud-
ed.
- The control system should not be mounted in moist environments or wet
areas (see also section "Technical data'}

In the case of shipboard operation:


.. Fasten the control system in a way to avoid vibrations.
.. Do not fit the control system in the vicinity of hot pipes .
., Arrange the air discharge from the ventilator and filter so that adequate venti-
lation is assured.

Humidity I dew
If there is a risk that the control system is exposed to dew, the supply voltage
shouid always be switched on to keep the temperature inside the control cabinet
as constant as possible.
If power is supplied via the motor starter, the main switch should remain on.

8555-9000-010/1207
97

Before carrying out work, dis-


connect power to all compo-
nents of the monitoring system!
Risk of injury due to electrical voltage
and unintended start-up of the separa-
tor!

Before carrying out work on the


separator and electrical plant com-
ponents:
" Make sure the separator is at a
standstill.
Fig. 115 " Switch off all electrical appliances
via the main switch,
" Lock the installation to prevent it
from being accidentally switched on.

5.2 Connecting the control system


" Special attention must be paid.to the installation guidelines ofWestfalia
Separator.
" The inputs and outputs are atlocated to the corresponding terminal blocks on
the subplate as specified in the terminal diagrams.

Operating voltages

" Connect the control system only to voltages that are specified on the name-
plate inside the control cabinet.
The standard rating for the control voltage for solenoid valves for operating
water and control air is 24 voe.

Danger through external voltage!


The voltage-free contacts of the interface relay carry external voltages if
they are, for example, used as interlocks in pump controls.

The output modules are provided with short-circuit proof transistor outputs.

Installation regulations:
" Lay the signal lines separate from lines with high voltages (e.g. power cables,
motor leads etc.).
" Firmly tighten the cable glands for leading in the cables.

5.3 Centralised control via potential-free contacts


The integration of local separator control units into the customer's central control
systems requires the communication signals to be discussed when placing the
order.

-1A1 The controi unit can be iinked to a cen-


tralised control system via a hardware
A0.7
signal.

1.1 Correct usage


Centrifugal separators - called separators in short - are used
" for the separation of liquid mixtures which consist of two liquids, with simulta-
neous removal of the solids contained in the liquids.
" for removing (clarifying) solids from a liquid.

The separator is designed


,. for a very high bowl speed.
The admissible bowl speed depends on the chemical and physical properties
of the product:
- Temperature
- Density of the fluid and solid components.
" for products which contain no corrosive and erosive components.
The aggressiveness of the product influences the careful selection of the bowl
material.
Only products conforming to the specifications on the nameplate may be
processed.
" in accordance with the method of application of the separator agreed with
GEA Westfalia Separator. Refer to the data sheet and contractually agree-
ments .
.. in accordance with the admissible utilities (cleaning agents, lubricants, operat-
ing liquids etc.) specified in the documentation or on the data sheet.

Intended use involves


" paying attention to the safety precautions, the instruction manual of the sepa-
rator and the safety markings on the separator.
" adhering to the data on the nameplate, e.g. maximum admissible bowl speed.
Further information on the intended use of the separator such as
- agreed areas,
- density of the product
- throughput capacities
- temperatures
- pressures etc.
is given in the documentation or the data sheet furnished with the documenta-
tion.
The contractually agreed conditions agreed with GEA Westfalia Separator on
the intended use of the separator must be passed on to the operating personnel
by the plant operator.

Any operating mode deviating from this is not intended use and can result
in severe damage to property and persons!

GEA Mechanical Equipment I GEA Westfalia Separator


2062-9001-000 I 0510 11

1.2 Non-compliance with the intended use


Any use that deviates from the intended use is considered to be non-
compliant.

The separator may not be operated by:


.. Persons who have not read and understood these basic safety precautions.
.. Persons who have not read and understood the instruction manual of the
separator .
.. Persons who have not been briefed on proper and correct operation.
" Persons who have not been adequately trained.
" Persons who have not reached the minimum age of 18 years.

The separator may not be operated


" when the product fed does not conform to the specifications on the name-
plate.
- Product with excessively high density
- Solids with excessively high density
- Product with excessively high temperature
• when the max. admissible bowl speed has been exceeded through electrical
or electronic manipulation of the drive.
• in an incomplete state of assembly, e.g.
- required supervisory equipment is not activated or has been switched off.
- the required safety and/or protective covers have not been installed.
• by persons who are not adequately trained.
• when the separator is operated with spare parts which do not come from GEA
Westfalia Separator.

Non-compliance with intended use can result in severe damage to prop-


erty and persons!

1.4 Basic operating principles


Separators are used for the separation of liquid mixtures or for the separation of
solids out of liquids or liquid mixtures.

High centrifugal forces are produced in


the rotating bowl.

S01

Fig. 13

Under the influence of the centrifugal forces, separation of the liquid mixture
and/or ejection of the solids particles takes place most rapidly.
The specifically heavier components are displaced to the bowl periphery, whe-
reas the specifically lighter components are displaced towards the centre of the
bowl.
The high centrifugal force is produced by very high bowl speeds. On the one
hand, high bowl speeds signify high efficiency, while on the other hand, they
signify high material stressing of the separator.

1.5.9 Maintenance and repair


Unfavourable operating conditions may require shorter maintenance intervals.
The factors listed below are unfavourable because they either attack the sepa-
rator material directly or impair the lubrication/cooling system:
.. Aggressive product (chemical or physical)
.. High product temperature
.. Product with grease-decaying properties
.. Environment: Temperature, dust, vapours

Particularly high-stressed separator


parts like
- Bowl lock ring,
- bowl bottom,
- bowl top and
- other bowl parts with a large outer
diameter
must be checked regularly to assure
safe and efficient operation.

Fig. 45

Timely maintenance of the separator and replacement of worn or damaged ma-


chine parts is essential for safe operation of the machine.
Use only genuine spare parts from Westfalia Separator. Otherwise, safety
risks may arise (see section 1.5.2)

:... Carry out the required cleaning thoroughly.


One-sided solid deposits in the bowl cause severe unbalance!

Maintenance and repair work may only be carried out to the extent described in
this instruction manual.

Maintenance and repair work not described in this manual may only be
carried out by the manufacturer or by "repair shops" authorized by the

1.6 Corrosion
Corrosion can also affect bowl parts made of stainless steel. This corrosion can
be flat-spread or pit- or crack-shaped and merits special attention.
Corrosion on stainless steel bowl material should be examined thoroughly and
documented.
Flat-spread corrosion can usually be measured (reduction of wall thickness)
Pit- or crack-shaped corrosion cannot be measured without the risk of damage.
At the initial stage pit-shaped corrosion is generally caused by chlorine ions.
Depending on the stressing of the part, pit-shaped corrosion can result in crack-
shaped corrosion.

Possible formation of pit-shaped cor-


rosion.

$35

Fig. 53

Such pittings can only be investigated by a materials expert.

In case of crack-shaped corrosion attack with or without superposed flat-


spread and pit-shaped corrosion on main bowl components, the machine
must be shut down immediately.

Contact your nearest Westfalia Separator representative for a thorough exami-


nation.

Pittings
Pittings which are close together or
form a linear pattern can signify crack
formation beneath the surface.
Such pittings should be investigated by
a materials expert.

34 2062-9001-000 I 0510

1.7 Erosion
Erosion is caused by solid particles in the process liquid.
These solid particles grind marks into the surfaces with which they come into
contact.
The following factors favour the occurrence of erosion:
"' hard solids particles
"' high throughput capacities

The first signs of erosion should be carefully observed and documented. Ero-
sion can deepen rapidly, thereby weakening the bowl material.

Contact your nearest Westfalia Separator representative for a thorough exami-


nation. Information on the nature of the damage can be provided by photos,
plaster casts or lead molds.

$40

Fig. 55

The surfaces most susceptible to erosion are:

1) the bottom of the distributor, the rising channels and the ribs,
2) the centripetal pump (cavitation).
3) all surfaces in the area of the solids discharge ports,
4) the nozzles.

GEA Mechanical Equipment I GEA Westfalia Separator


2062-9001-000 I 0510 35

Signs of erosion which you should


immediately report to your nearest
Westfalia Separator representative:
.. The bottom of the erosion mark has
radius < 1mm a radius smaller than 1 mm (large
notch effect).
" The depth of erosion mark exceeds
1 mm (0.04 inch) at the deepest
point.

11 8 The health hazards involved when handling heavy oils and lube oils

. As a result of the deterioration in quality of fuel oils, the danger has arisen that the heavy oils used on
board contain greater amounts of substances injurious to health. These include:
- polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,
- lead compounds,
- chemical residues.
An increased amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is also present in used lube oils (waste oils).
The health hazards for the engine room staff depend to a large extent
.. on the concentrations of the dangerous substances,
'" the ambient air (inhalation of oil vapours/oil mist),
.. the intensity and duration of the contact with the skin or mucous membrane.

Possible short-term effects:


" headaches,
" dizziness,
.. nausea,
.. itching or burning of the skin,

Possible long-term effects:


., allergic reactions, especially skin allergies,
.. festering inflammation of the skin pores (oil-acne),
.. damage to the central nervous system after inhalation over a long period,
" skin cancer caused by direct skin contact over a long period,
.. Lung cancer or cancer of the digestive organs after inhalation over a long period
(not certain as the causes are difficult to separate from the effects of smoking and alcohol).

1.8.1 Code of practice and personal protective measures

.. Avoid skin contact with heavy oils or lube oils if possible!


- Wear suitable protective gloves.
- Apply a protective ointment to the skin (e.g. ointment no. 76), especially if no protective gloves are
worn!
" Avoid breathing in oil vapours if possible!
" If possible, improve the air circulation in the room!
Fully open the air regulation flaps in the outlets of the air supply ducts in the centrifuge and filter area.
.. Wash affected areas of skin frequently and thoroughly!
Apply protective ointment to the skin!
,. Personal hygiene is of the utmost importance!
" Change dirty overalls regularly!
.. Exercise special care when carrying out maintenance work on and cleaning heavy oil and lube oil cen-
trifuges and filters!

2.3 General
The machine described in this manual is a high-speed centrifugal separator with
self-cleaning bowl.
"Separation" means the separation of liquid mixtures which consist of two liq-
uids, with simultaneous removal of the solids contained in the liquids.
"Clarification" is the removal of solids from a liquid.
Prerequisite for treatment technology (separation) is that the components of the
product
- can be separated mechanically,
- have different densities and
- do not emulsify.

2.4 OSE ... -0136-...


The OSE separator ... -0136- ... with unitrolplus-System is equipped with a self-
cleaning disk bowl. It is used for clarification and purification of fuel oil (heavy oil
up to a density of 1.01 g/ml).
The separator with unitrol plus-System has two built-in monitoring functions:
- WMS - (water content monitoring system)
- SMS (sludge space monitoring system)

The fuel oil is conveyed to the separator via a separate pump.
The dirty oil feed occurs (1) through a closed line system.
The clean oil is discharged (2) under pressure by centripetal pump (12) via the
clean oil discharge.
The bowl is automatically opened and closed for desludging at full bowl speed
by means of a solenoid valve (19) in the operating water line.
The partial flow (9) diverted from the bowl via the separating disk (13) and the
sensing liquid pump (11) is monitored by a water detector (5) and a pressure
transmitter (6).
When the water detector (5) registers water (high capacity), the solenoid valve
(8) opens and the water is discharged through the dirty water outlet (14).
If the high capacity (water) changes due to oil flow (low capacity), the solenoid
valve (8) closes and the solenoid valve (7) opens intermittently. The partial flow
(9) is then recycled into the dirty oil feed (1).
When the sensing liquid inlet becomes blocked with water or solids accumula-
tion in the sludge space (15), the pressure transmitter (6) sends a pulse to the
control unit (1 O and the automatic ejection program is initiated.
The control and monitoring unit (10) ensures unmanned operation.

• The liquid
- is pared off by the centripetal
pump and
- flows through its spiral channels
from the outside to the inside.
By this means the kinetic energy is
converted into pressure energy
which makes possible discharging
the liquid under pressure.

2.5.2 Bowl

T2058077

Fig. 63

j Pos. Designation Function


Bowl produces high centrifugal forces through rotation
making possible separation and clarification.
2 Distributor accelerates the product fed in through feed A to
the rotational velocity of the bowl and then con-
veys it into the disk stack.
3 Disk stack .. splits the liquid mixture consisting of a light
and heavy phase, e.g. oil-water, into its com-
ponents.
" consists of a large number of conical disks
positioned on top of one another.
Each disk is provided with spacers so that pre-
cisely defined interspaces are formed between
the individual disks.
The smooth disk surfaces facilitate sliding of the
solids and hence self-cleaning of the disks.
Separation chamber The separation space consists of a large number
of parallel chambers of low height. This pro-
duces very small radial sedimentation paths for
the product.

Solids collect on the upper wall of each disk interspace


and slide down into the solids holding space.
4 Solids holding space collects the solids separated in the disk stack.

j Pos. Designation Function
Drive motor drives the separator.
Power transmission to the bowl spindle is via the
centrifugal clutch to the motor belt pulley and via
the drive belt.

2 Centrifugal clutch " ensures power transmission between motor,


drive belt and spindle.
" accelerates the bowl gradually to rated
speed;
.. is gentle on the drive belt and motor.

Important!
- The driving effect of nevv clutch shoes will
improve after several starts.
Smoking of the centrifugal clutcl·1 during the
first few starts is perfectly normal and will dis-
appear after a short time of operation.
- Wear to the clutch shoes depends on the
number of starts and the ejection frequency
(see section 4.3.1 ).

3 Drive belt transfers the drive power of the drive motor 1 to


the bowl spindle 4.
Regularly check the seat and condition of the
drive belt. The inspection and replacement inter-
vals are given in the maintenance schedule (see

B Throughput capacity (x 1000 l/h)
C Scale range of the flow indicator

The diagram can be used to determine the separator throughput capacity (add-
ed feed per time unit).

Procedure:
• Read the scale value at the flow indicator (see Fig. 76):
e.g. 3
" Proceed horizontally with the scale value (e.g. 3) to the curve of the fitted pre-
set valve diameter A (e.g. 0 18).
• Vertically read off the throughput capacity B:
e.g. 10 (= 1O 000 l/h)

The accuracy of the determined throughput depends on the following properties


of the feed:
- Viscosity
- Temperature
- Density
The stipulated properties can result in variations in determining the throughput
capacity.

3.1 Technical information


Take note of the following sections:

3.1.1 Separating with the tmitrolplus system


The separator with unitrol plus-System has two built-in monitoring functions:
- vvater content monitoring system \''J~"~S
- sludge space monitoring system - SMS

Procedure:
" Select the desired operating mode on the control unit.
" Set the separating time on the control unit.
.. Start the separator (see 3.2).

3.1.2 General information on bowl ejection


The bowl is ejected automatically at full speed during the program sequence.
The time at which the ejection is triggered is
" determined by the preset separating time
or
.. by the solids level in the bowl,
if:
- SMS was selected on the control unit,
- the sludge space is full before the separating time has elapsed.
For determining the separating time see 3.5.

Sequence of an ejection (example without "Fi!!ing")


1. Separating time has elapsed.
2. Product feed valve is closed.
3. Displacement water displaces the fuel oil to the clean oil- ~ide.
1

4. Operating water opens and closes l11e bowl hydraulically at full bowl
speed.
5. Waiting time for speed recovery.
6. Product valve is opened.
7. Separating time resumes.

Displacement
., When separating, the loss of feed liquid unavoidable during ejection can be
reduced to a minimum by displacing the feed liquid with water before sludge
ejection takes place (especially important when processing valuable feed liq-
uid) .
.. The duration of displacement water supply is given in the timer overview (see
control unit manual).

GEA Mechanical Equipment I GEA Westfaiia Separator


2062-9001-000 I 0510 71

.. If the displacement time is too long, water will discharge through the light liq-
uid outlet.
.. If the displacement time is too short, part of the product remains in the bowl
and is lost during desludging.

Flush ejection
If the solids cant be completely ejected,
- due to an excessively long dwell time in the bowl or
- are stuck too firmly on the wall of the solids holding space due to the solids
properties,
• either the separating time must be shortened or
• a flush ejection must be carried out after the total ejection by filling the bowl
with water or product and emptying it again.

Program control
• "Displacement", "ejection" and "flush ejections" at precisely defined intervals
are best carried out with the automatic control unit.
• The clean oil discharge and water discharge can be monitored.
" Faults can be signalled visually or audibly.

3.3 Starting the separator


" See section 3.2.2 or 3.2.2.
" Switch on the control unit.
" Switch on the separator motor.
Compare the starting current and starting time with the diagram (section
4.1.3) until the bowl reaches the speed specified on the separator nameplate.
tmml
The run-up phase of the separator motor is signalled by slow flashing of the
LED in the "Status Separator" key.

ATTENTION! Before the first start-up - after maintenance and repair work
on the separator -
., Check the direction of rotation of the bowl.
The bowl must rotate in clockwise direction when looked at from above.

The direction of rotation of the bowl is


correct when the drive belt rotates
clockwise (check through the sight
glasses in the frame).
When the direction of rotation is incor-
rect the motor connections must be
reversed by an authorised specialist.

Fig. 78

• Switch on the product feed pump (option).


- Ensure that the product feed valves to the suction and pressure side are
open!

ATTENTION! Before the first start-up - after maintenance and repair work
on the product feed pump -
• Check the direction of rotation of the product feed pump.
The direction of rotation of the product feed pump is correct when the fan
wheel of the pump motor rotates clockwise.
• Put the preheater in operation (option).

.. Start the program.


Pre-conditions:
- Continuous lighting of the LED in the "Status Separator" button.
- The specified separating temperature has been reached.
- The solids tank has been released (level switch lSHH).
- The solids tank is empty.
" After the product feed valve has automatically opened.
- Set the backpressure in the product discharge line to approx. 1.5 to 2.5 bar
(see order-specific operating data sheet).
- Adjust the desired throughput capacity; while doing so, maintain the back-
pressure in the product discharge line in the specified area.

ATTENTION!
" Check the discharges for solids and dirty water; there must be no oil flow
during the separating process!

3.4 Monitoring of operation


The machine is monitored largely by the separator control.

Operations to be carried out regularly:


" On your daily round, especially during the first 1500 operating hours, pay at-
tention to the following:
- Oil level
- Temperatures
- Pressures
- Leakage
- Vibrations
- Current consumption
- Starting time
- Hoses and hose pipes
- Pipe joints
" Keep to the maintenance schedule (see 4.3.1)!

GEA Mechanical Equipment I GEA Westfaiia Separator


2062-9001-000 I 0510 77

.. Inspection
We, therefore, recommend in your own interest to have your separator in-
spected by our service engineers once a year. These checks help to
- maintain the operating safety of the machine and
- avoid unscheduled downtime.

Important!
.. Regularly check plant components such as hose pipes, sight glasses for signs
of aging and mechanical damage .
.. Damaged plant components must be replaced immediately by new parts.

3.5 Setting the separation time


When using time-dependent automatic control programs, accurate setting of the
separation time (time between ejection cycles) is only possible if the throughput
capacity and solids loading in the feed remain constant. If this is not the case, it
may be necessary to correct the settings during operation.
The separating time depends on
.. the preselected operating mode (partial or total ejection mode),
"' the solids loading in the feed,
" the consistency of the solids,
" the effective solids space volume in the bowl,
" the separator throughput.
Given constant conditions, the separating time can be determined by calcula-
tion.
The following times have proven appropriate in practice (examples):

Product Total ejection Partial ejection


HFO max. 2 h max. 1 h
MOO max. 2 h max. 1 h
DO max. 4 h max. 2 h
LO mild max. 4 h max. 2 h
--~~'

LO HD max. 2 h max. 1 h

3.5.1 Mathematical calculation


Example for mathematical calculation of the separating time:

Given: Solids content (1 > p ::: 0.05 %


Solids holding space volume v = 11 I
Solids holding space given 75 % utilisation V' ::: 8.251
Throughput capacity ( 1
>
yo = 7 000 l/h
Wanted: Separating time t =?min

The separating time to be set is calculated as follows:

V' 8.25
t ::: • 60 • 100 ::: • 6 000 = i41 min = 2.35 h
7 000 • 0.05

1
( > Solids content and throughput capacity must be determined on site or taken from
the order specification.

* WS standard
The separator is driven by a three-phase AC motor via a centrifugal clutch and
the drive belt.
The specified motor ratings are minimum values which are based on the in-
creased starting current. Since the current consumption of the motor drops after
start-up, overloading of the motor during operation is not possible.
The starting time depends on the
- flywheel effect of the bowl,
- number of clutch shoes used,
- condition of the clutch shoes.
The starting current can peak at about 1.8 - 2 times the rated current (see start-
up diagram). This is to be considered when selecting switches, lead-in wires
and fuses.
The motor
- can be started direct online (WS standard) or via a motor control for star-
delta switching (Ex-zone).

GEA Mechanical Equipment I GEA Westfa!ia


2062-9001-000 I 0510 99

- is protected against overheating by thermal overload releases or a PTC


thermistor as sole protection.
(As WS standard, the motor is protected against overheating by three PTC
thermistors).
- can be equipped with a frequency converter if requested by the customer.
When using thermal overload releases, the motor has to be protected as fol-
lows:
- during operation by a release set to the rated current and
- during start-up by a second release set to 1.8 - 2 times the rated current.
The release set to the rated current must be bridged during start-up.

Note:
• The temperature feelers must be connected to a commercial tripping device.

• External voltage higher than 2.5 volts must not be applied to the connection
terminals of the temperature feelers.
" When testing for continuity, use an ohmmeter and not a test lamp.

Electrical connection

CAUTION: Danger to life and limb through electric current!


There might be residual voltage!
In the case of motors with space heaters, residual voltages in the motor
terminal box are possible despite switched off main switch.

Prior to working on the motor:


• Refer to the motor nameplate .
.. Refer to the motor instruction manual.
• Take adequate preventive measures according to the national provisions (in
Germany in accordance with the rules and regulations of the VOE (Associa-
tion of German Electrical Engineers) or of the local electric power company.
• Any work on the motor may be carried out by an authorized electrician
only.

" Connect the motor.


Refer to the motor instruction man-
ual.

4.3.1 Maintenance schedule

ATTENTION!
The following maintenance intervals are recommendations which apply only for normal operating
conditions.
Negative operating conditions (e.g. low-grade fuel, excessively high temperature, strong vibrations,
frequent starting and stopping of the separator etc.) can necessitate shorter maintenance intervals.

To assure correct functioning and operating safety,


• in case of non-routine shut-down, see section 3.7 - manual operation.
• Pay attention to the following points during servicing:
- Oil level - Current consumption
- Temperatures - Starting time
- Pressures - Hoses and hose pipes (see 4.3.2)
- Leakage - Pipe joints
- Vibrations
• Before every assembly, grease the main components of the bowl at guide and contact surfaces (see section 4.3.4 -
lubrication schedule).
• in the case of frequent starting and stopping of the separator, shaft-driven alternator operation and in power plants, the
condition of the clutch shoes must be checked more often than stated in this schedule. It is not possible to state a defini-
tive time. We recommend checking the clutch shoes after 1000 operating hours or after 2 months at the latest.
• We recommend having the separator checked by a WS service specialist once a year.

4.3.6 Comments on table of lubricating oils for separators from GEA Westfalia Separator

Faultless functioning of separators very much depends on the proper type of lubricating oil used, since a
high grade oil, selected to meet all service requirements, will minimize the wear, thus extending the ser-
vice life and increasing the operating safety.
For the lubrication of our separators we recommend to use the oils specified by us since continuous qual-
ity checks are performed by GEA Westfalia Separator. Oils proposed from some firms are not subjected
to these tests.
Therefore, GEA Westfalia Separator cannot give a performance guarantee for those oils.
Be sure to select only high grade solvent refined products.
The specified oil types meet the requirements according to DIN. Under unfavourable operating condi-
tions, e.g. high temperatures, the quality of the oils may be insufficient so that more efficient oils, e.g.
synthetic oils, must be used. If necessary, consult GEA Westfalia Separator.
For the different separator types and oil types the viscosity ranges are specified in the table of lubricating
oils.
The operating temperature of the separator exceeds normally 80 °C (176 °F). At those temperatures
some oils age quickly, so that they have to be changed prematurely.
Be sure not to use lubricating oils with viscosities lower than those specified in the table. Due to the pos-
sibility of the oil film breaking down, oil of too low a viscosity will give insufficient lubrication, resulting in
increased wear. However, oils with a slightly higher viscosity than specified may be used.
Bear in mind that the viscosity groups SAE 30, 40 and 50 (SAE = Society of Automotive Engineers)
cover larger viscosity ranges and be sure to select lubricating oils with viscosities not lower than the
minimum values of the viscosity ranges restricted for the different separator types.

It is generally not necessary to dismantle self-cleaning bowls for cleaning after
separation unless
- the nature of the product makes it necessary,
- the separator is to be shut down for a lengthy period (see section 4.9) .
.. Dismantle and clean the bowl for checking from time to time. See section
4.3.1 - Maintenance schedule.

4.4.6 Important instructions for assembling the bowl

CAUTION: Danger of imbalance!


When the bowl has not been correctly assembled or is inadequately cleaned,
forces can be produced in the high-speed rotating bowl which endanger the
operating safety of the separator!
Therefore, the cleaning instructions (section 4.4.2) and assembling instructions
(section 4.4.7) must be exactly followed.

Pay particular attention to the following:

ATTENTION!
• Before assembling the bowl, check to be sure that the guide and contact sur-
faces of the bowl are clean .
.. Grease the guide surfaces as specified in the lubrication schedule (see 4.3.4) .

.. Some bowl parts are arranged in


I fixed positions relative to one an-
other.

Q • Locking devices and alignment


marks must be in perfect condition.

1.1 Correct usage


Centrifugal separators - called separators in short - are used
"' for the separation of liquid mixtures which consist of two liquids, with simulta-
neous removal of the solids contained in the liquids.
"' for removing (clarifying) solids from a liquid.

The separator is designed


,. for a very high bowl speed.
The admissible bowl speed depends on the chemical and physical properties
of the product:
- Temperature
- Density of the fluid and solid components.
" for products which contain no corrosive and erosive components.
The aggressiveness of the product influences the careful selection of the bowl
material.
Only products conforming to the specifications on the nameplate may be
processed.
" in accordance with the method of application of the separator agreed with
Westfalia Separator. Refer to the data sheet and contractually agreements.
" in accordance with the admissible utilities (cleaning agents, lubricants, operat-
ing liquids etc.) specified in the documentation or on the data sheet.

Intended use involves


" paying attention to the safety precautions, the instruction manual of the sepa-
rator and the safety markings on the separator.
"' adhering to the data on the nameplate, e.g. maximum admissible bowl speed.
Further information on the intended use of the separator such as
- agreed areas,
- density of the product
- throughput capacities
- temperatures
- pressures etc.
is given in the documentation or the data sheet furnished with the documenta-
tion.
The contractually agreed conditions agreed with Westfalia Separator on the in-
tended use of the separator must be passed on to the operating personnel by
the plant operator.

Any operating mode deviating from this is not intended use and can result
in severe damage to property and persons!

i'v1echanicai Separation I GEA Westfaiia Separator


2063-9001-200 I 0609 11

1.2 Non-compliance with the intended use


Any use that deviates from the intended use is considered to be non-
compliant.

The separator may not be operated by:


.. Persons who have not read and understood these basic safety precautions.
.. Persons who have not read and understood the instruction manual of the
separator .
.. Persons who have not been briefed on proper and correct operation .
.. Persons who have not been adequately trained .
.. Persons who have not reached the minimum age of 18 years.

The separator may not be operated


" when the product fed does not conform to the specifications on the name-
plate.
- Product with excessively high density
- Solids with excessively high density
- Product with excessively high temperature
• when the max. admissible bowl speed has been exceeded through electrical
or electronic manipulation of the drive .
., in an incomplete state of assembly, e.g.
- required supervisory equipment is not activated or has been switched off.
- the required safety and/or protective covers have not been installed.
• by persons who are not adequately trained.
" when the separator is operated with spare parts which do not come from
Westfalia Separator.

Non-compliance with intended use can result in severe damage to prop-


erty and persons!

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator

1.3 Safety markings


The safety markings (adhesive and metal plates) are attached to all separators
on the hood and frame of the respective separator in such a way that they are
clearly visible.
All safety markings on the separator, control system and p!ant components must
always be in perfect condition.
" Clean dirty safety markings.
" Replace damaged safety markings.

1.4 Basic operating principles


Separators are used for the separation of liquid mixtures or for the separation of
solids out of liquids or liquid mixtures.

High centrifugal forces are produced in


the rotating bowl.

S01

Fig. 13

Under the influence of the centrifugal forces, separation of the liquid mixture
and/or ejection of the solids particles takes place most rapidly.
The specifically heavier components are displaced to the bowl periphery, whe-
reas the specifically lighter components are displaced towards the centre of the
bowl.
The high centrifugal force is produced by very high bowl speeds. On the one
hand, high bowl speeds signify high efficiency, while on the other hand, they
signify high material stressing of the separator.

1.5.9 Maintenance and repair


Unfavourable operating conditions may require shorter maintenance intervals.
The factors listed below are unfavourable because they either attack the sepa-
rator material directly or impair the lubrication/cooling system:
" Aggressive product (chemical or physical)
.. High product temperature
.. Product with grease-decaying properties
.. Environment: Temperature, dust, vapours

Particularly high-stressed separator


parts like
- Bowl lock ring,
- bowl bottom,
- bowl top and
- other bowl parts with a large outer
diameter
must be checked regularly to assure
safe and efficient operation.

Fig. 45

Timely maintenance of the separator and replacement of worn or damaged ma-


chine parts is essential for safe operation of the machine.
Use only genuine spare parts from Westfalia Separator. Otherwise, safety
risks may arise (see section 1.5.2)

Carry out the required cleaning thoroughly.


One-sided solid deposits in the bowl cause severe unbalance!

Maintenance and repair work may only be carried out to the extent described in
this instruction manual.

Maintenance and repair work not described in this manual may only be
carried out by the manufacturer or by "repair shops" authorized by the

1.6 Corrosion
Corrosion can also affect bowl parts made of stainless steel. This corrosion can
be flat-spread or pit- or crack-shaped and merits special attention.
Corrosion on stainless steel bowl material should be examined thoroughly and
documented.
Flat-spread corrosion can usually be measured (reduction of wall thickness)
Pit- or crack-shaped corrosion cannot be measured without the risk of damage.
At the initial stage pit-shaped corrosion is generally caused by chlorine ions.
Depending on the stressing of the part, pit-shaped corrosion can result in crack-
shaped corrosion.

Possible formation of pit-shaped cor-


rosion.

S35

Fig. 53

Such pittings can only be investigated by a materials expert.

In case of crack-shaped corrosion attack with or without superposed flat-


spread and pit-shaped corrosion on main bowl components, the machine
must be shut down immediately.

Contact your nearest Westfalia Separator representative for a thorough exami-


nation.

Pittings
Pittings which are close together or
form a linear pattern can signify crack
formation beneath the surface.
Such pittings should be investigated by
a materials expert.

1.7 Erosion
Erosion is caused by solid particles in the process liquid.
These solid particles grind marks into the surfaces with which they come into
contact.
The following factors favour the occurrence of erosion:
.. hard solids particles
" high throughput capacities

The first signs of erosion should be carefully observed and documented. Ero-
sion can deepen rapidly, thereby weakening the bowl material.

Contact your nearest Westfalia Separator representative for a thorough exami-


nation. Information on the nature of the damage can be provided by photos,
plaster casts or lead molds.

S40

Fig. 55

The surfaces most susceptible to erosion are:

1) the bottom of the distributor, the rising channels and the ribs,
2) the centripetal purnp (cavitatior1) 1

3) all surfaces in the area of the solids discharge ports,


4) the nozzles.

fv1echanicai Separation i GEA Westfaiia Separator


2063-9001-200 I 0609 35

Signs of erosion which you should


immediately report to your nearest
Westfalia Separator representative:
.. The bottom of the erosion mark has
radius < 1mm a radius smaller than 1 mm (large
notch effect) .
.. The depth of erosion mark exceeds
1 mm (0.04 inch) at the deepest
point.

1.8 The health hazards involved when handling heavy oils and lube oils

As a result of the deterioration in quality of fuel oils, the danger has arisen that the heavy oils used on
board contain greater amounts of substances injurious to health. These include:
~ polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,
- lead compounds,
- chemical residues.
An increased amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is also present in used lube oils (waste oils).
The health hazards for the engine room staff depend to a large extent
.. on the concentrations of the dangerous substances,
" the ambient air (inhalation of oil vapours/oil mist),
., the intensity and duration of the contact with the skin or mucous membrane.

Possible short-term effects:


" headaches,
.. dizziness,
., nausea,
.. itching or burning of the skin,

Possible long-term effects:


.. allergic reactions, especially skin allergies,
" festering inflammation of the skin pores (oil-acne),
" damage to the central nervous system after inhalation over a long period,
" skin cancer caused by direct skin contact over a long period,
.. Lung cancer or cancer of the digestive organs after inhalation over a long period
(not certain as the causes are difficult to separate from the effects of smoking and alcohol).

1.8.1 Code of practice and personal protective measures

" Avoid skin contact with heavy oils or lube oils if possible!
- \Near suitable protective gloves.
- Apply a protective ointment to the skin (e.g. ointment no. 76), especially if no protective gloves are
worn!
" Avoid breathing in oil vapours if possible!
" If possible, improve the air circulation in the room! \
.1
Fu!!y open the air regulation flaps in the outlets of the air supply ducts in the centrifuge and filter area.
" \Nash affected areas of skin frequently and thoroughly!
Apply protective ointment to the skin!
., Personal hygiene is of the utmost importance!
" Change dirty overalls regularly!
" Exercise special care when carrying out maintenance work on and cleaning heavy oil and lube oil cen-
trifuges and filters!

2.3 General
The machine described in this manual is a high-speed centrifugal separator with
self-cleaning bowl.
"Separation" means the separation of liquid mixtures which consist of two liq-
uids, with simultaneous removal of the solids contained in the liquids.
"Clarification" is the removal of solids from a liquid.
Prerequisite for treatment technology (separation) is that the components of the
product
- can be separated mechanically,
- have different densities and
- do not emulsify.

2.4 OSE ... -91-...


The separator OSE ... -91-...
" is equipped with a self-cleaning disk bowl,
" is used for clarification and separation in fuel and lube oil treatment plants.
• operates with regulating rings (see section 2.6).
The most important part of the separator is the bowl. The bowl
" is configured as a purifier bowl at the factory,
.. can - depending on the application - be converted to function as a clarifier or
purifier bowl.
Conversion of the purifier bowl into a clarifier bowl is possible in a few simple
steps (see diagrams).

In the case of the purifier bowl:


• Mount the centripetal pump chamber
cover with bores.
IMPORTANT: All holes of the cen-
tripetal pump chamber cover must
be open!
" Select the regulating ring (see sec-
tion 2.6).

In the case of the clarifier bowl:


.. ATTENTION! Mount the centripetal
pump chamber cover (without
bores!) for operation in clarifier
mode.
" Request the part number of the cen-
tripetal pump chamber cover from
the supplier.

2.5.2 Bowl

T2058077

Fig. 65

IPos. Designation Function


Bowl produces high centrifugal forces through rotation
making possible separation and clarification.
2 Distributor accelerates the product fed in through feed A to
the rotational velocity of the bowl and then con-
veys it into the disk stack.
3 Disk stack e splits the liquid mixture consisting of a light
and heavy phase, e.g. oil-water, into its com-
ponents .
.. consists of a large number of conical disks
positioned on top of one another.
Each disk is provided with spacers so that pre-
cisely defined interspaces are formed between
the individual disks.
The smooth disk surfaces facilitate sliding of the
solids and hence self-cleaning of the disks.
Separation chamber The separation space consists of a large number
of parallel chambers of low height. This pro-
duces very small radial sedimentation paths for
the product.

Solids collect on the upper wall of each disk interspace


and slide down into the solids holding space.
4 Solids holding space collects the solids separated in the disk stack.

After starting the separator the solenoid valve for operating liquid is actuated
with the aid of the control unit, and the bowl is closed as follows:

IPos. Designation Function

Operating liquid • flows into the injection chamber 4 of bowl


bottom 5 and
" from there through feed holes into closing
chamber 6.
This initiates closing of the bowl.

2 Annular piston • moves into closed position.

3 Sliding piston • is raised due to the hydrostatic pressure in


closing chamber 6.

2.5.4 Drive

A2062001

Fig. 69

IPos. Designation Function


Drive motor drives the separator.
Power transmission to the bowl spindle is via the
centrifugal clutch to the motor belt pulley and via
the drive belt.

2 Centrifugal clutch • ensures power transmission between motor,


drive belt and spindle.
• accelerates the bowl gradually to rated
speed;
• is gentle on the drive belt and motor.

Important!
- The driving effect of new clutch shoes will
improve after several starts.
- Smoking of the centrifugal clutch during the
first few starts is perfectly normal and will dis-
appear after a short time of operation.
- Wear to the clutch shoes depends on the
number of starts and the ejection frequency
(see section 4.3.1 ).

3 Drive belt transfers the drive power of the drive motor 1 to


the bowl spindle 4.
Regularly check the seat and condition of the
drive belt. The inspection and replacement inter-
vals are given in the maintenance schedule (see
4.3.1).

4 Bowl spindle supports the bowl.

2.6 Regulating ring


Perfect separation of a liquid mixture is only possible when the bowl has been
correctly adapted to the density difference between the light liquid (e.g. oil) and
the heavy liquid (e.g. water).

To achieve this, select and fit the regu-


lating ring from the set furnished (with
different inner diameters) whose inner
diameter corresponds to the difference
in density between the two liquid com-
ponents.

8205211

Fig. 73 Regulating ring (example)

The inner diameter of the regulating ring to be selected can be determined from
the table or empirically. The general rule of thumb is:
" narrow regulating ring for heavy oil
.. wide regulating ring for light oil.

2063-9001-200 I 0609 57

2.6.2 Determination by experiment


(explained using the example of oil purification)
Always try a wide regulating ring and then the next smaller ring.
When the regulating ring is too wide the discharging water contains oil.
When the regulating ring is too narrow the discharging clean oil contains water.
The water may look milky or dirty. The coloration comes from the washing of the
oil.
In the bowl, a separation zone is formed between the light and heavy phases
whose centre is the separating line.
After opening the bowl, the position of the separating zone can be recognised
by the almost always visible separating line between water and oil on the under-
side of the separating disk.

Correctly selected regulating ring


The separating line between water and
variable
oil is at the outer edge of the discs.

Effect:
- The discharging clean oil is free of
water.
- The discharging water is free of oil.

Fig 74

Regulating ring too wide


The separating line between water and
too wide oil runs
- far outside the discs and
- too close to the outer edge of the
separating disk.
Effect:
- The discharging clean oil is free of
water.
- The discharging water contains oil or
- oil breaks the water seal.

Fig. 81 Diagram for determining throughput

A Pre-set valve inner diameter (mm)


B Throughput capacity (x 1000 l/h)
C Scale range of the flow indicator

The diagram can be used to determine the separator throughput capacity (add-
ed feed per time unit).

Procedure:
.. Read the scale value at the flow indicator (see Fig. 80):
e.g. 3
.. Proceed horizontally with the scale value (e.g. 3) to the curve of the fitted pre-
set valve diameter A (e.g. 0 18) .
.. Vertically read off the throughput capacity B:
e.g. '10 (= 1 O 000 l/h)

The accuracy of the determined throughput depends on the following properties


of the feed:
- Viscosity
- Temperature
- Density
The stipulated properties can result in variations in determining the throughput
capacity.

3.1 Technical information


Take note of the following sections:

3.1. 1 Notes on separation


The separator is used for clarification and separation in fuel and lube oil treat-
ment plants.
The best separation effect is obtained with low viscosity of the product to be
separated.
The separator operates economically with the separating temperatures and ca-
pacities specified by us. Refer to the data sheet and contractual agreements.

Procedure:
" Select the desired operating mode on the control unit.
., Set the separating time on the control unit.

" Start the separator (see 3.2).

3.1.2 General information on bowl ejection


The bowl is ejected automatically at full speed during the program sequence.
The ejection time is determined by the preset separating time.
For determining the separating time see 3.5.

Sequence of an ejection (example)

1. Separating time has elapsed.


2. Product feed valve is closed.
3. Displacement water displaces the fuel oil to the clean oil side.
4. Operating water opens and closes the bowl hydraulically at full bowl
speed.
5. Waiting time for speed recovery.
6. Filling water supply
~-

7. Product valve is opened.


8. Separating time resumes.

Displacement
.. When separating, the loss of feed liquid unavoidable during ejection can be
reduced to a minimum by displacing the feed liquid with water before sludge
ejection takes place (especially important when processing valuable feed liq-
uid).
" The duration of displacement water supply is given in the timer overview (see
control unit manual).
" If the displacement time is too long, water will discharge through the light liq-
uid outlet.
.. If the displacement time is too short, part of the product remains in the bowl
and is lost during desludging.

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator


2063-9001-200 I 0609 71

Flush ejection
If the solids cant be completely ejected,
- due to an excessively long dwell time in the bowl or
- are stuck to firmly on the wall of the solids holding space due to the solids
properties,
., either the separating time must be shortened or
.. a flush ejection must be carried out after the total ejection by filling the bowl
with water or product and emptying it again.

Program control
.. "Displacement", "ejection", "filling" and "flush ejections" at precisely defined
intervals are best carried out with the automatic control unit.
• The clean oil discharge and water discharge can be monitored.
" Faults can be signalled visually or audibly.

3.3 Starting the separator


.. See section 3 .2 .1 or 3 .2 .2
.. Switch on the control unit.
" Switch on the separator motor.
Compare the starting current and starting time with the diagram (section
4.1.3) until the bowl reaches the speed specified on the separator nameplate.
mm
The run-up phase of the separator motor is signalled by slow flashing of the
LED in the "Status Separator" key.

ATTENTION! Before the first start-up - after maintenance and repair work
on the separator -
.. Check the direction of rotation of the bowl.
The bowl must rotate in clockwise direction when looked at from above.

The direction of rotation of the bowl is


correct when the drive belt rotates
clockwise (check through the sight
glass in the frame).
When the direction of rotation is incor-
rect the motor connections must be
reversed by an authorised specialist.

'" Start the program.


Pre-conditions:
- Continuous lighting of the LED in the "Status Separator" button.
- The specified separating temperature has been reached.
- The solids tank has been released (level switch LSHH).The solids tank is
empty .
.. After the product feed valve has automatically opened.
- Set the backpressure in the product discharge line to approx. 1.5 to 2.5 bar
(see order-specific operating data sheet).
- Adjust the desired throughput capacity; while doing so, maintain the back-
pressure in the product discharge line in the specified area.

ATTENTION!
.., Check the discharges for solids and dirty water; there must be no oil flow
during the separating process!

3.4 Monitoring of operation


The machine is monitored largely by the separator control.

Operations to be carried out regularly:


" On your daily round, especially during the first 1500 operating hours, pay at-
tention to the following:
- Oil level
Temperatures
- Pressures
- Leakage
- Vibrations
Current consumption
- Starting time
- Hoses and hose pipes
- Pipe joints

.. Keep to the maintenance schedule (see 4.3.1)!

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfaiia Separator


2063-9001-200 I 0609 77

" Inspection
We, therefore, recommend in your own interest to have your separator in-
spected by our service engineers once a year. These checks help to
- maintain the operating safety of the machine and
- avoid unscheduled downtime.

Important!
" Regularly check plant components such as hose pipes, sight glasses for signs
of aging and mechanical damage.
" Damaged plant components must be replaced immediately by new parts.

3.5 Setting the separation time


When using time-dependent automatic control programs, accurate setting of the
separation time (time between ejection cycles) is only possible if the throughput
capacity and solids loading in the feed remain constant. If this is not the case, it
may be necessary to correct the settings during operation.
The separating time depends on
" the preselected operating mode (partial or total ejection mode),
" the solids loading in the feed,
,. the consistency of the solids,
" the effective solids space volume in the bowl,
.. the separator throughput.
Given constant conditions, the separating time can be determined by calcula-
tion.
The following times have proven appropriate in practice (examples):

Product Total ejection Partial ejection


HFO max. 2 h max. 1 h
MOO max. 2 h max. 1 h
DO max. 4 h max. 2 h
LO mild max. 4 h max. 2 h
--
LO HD max. 2 h max. 1 h

3.5. 1 Mathematical calculation


Example for mathematical calculation of the separating time:

Given: Solids content (


1
' p =0.05 %
Solids holding space volume v =1.5 I
Solids holding space given 75 % utilisation V' "' 1.13 I
Throughput capacity (ll vo ::: 2 000 Ith
Wanted: Separating time t "'?min

The separating time to be set is calculated as follows: )


V' 1.13
t = • 60 • 100 = • 6000 = 67.8min = 1.1 h
yo • p 2 000 • 0.05

(l) Solids content and throughput capacity must be determined on site or taken from
the order specification.

- The control valves for thermal oil and steam preheater close automatically.

ATTENTION!
If the control unit or the control voltage 24 VDC fails, the automatic post-run
phase of the product feed pump is disabled.
The product feed pump may never be switched off to the steam shut-off valve
without a delay time. The pre-heater could get damaged!
All heaters (e.g. steam-fired, thermal oil, electric heaters) must be manually
shut down.
Manual shut-down of the product feed pump must be carried out delayed.
" Close the product feed valve in the suction side of the product feed pump (op-
tion) .

* WS standard
The separator is driven by a three-phase AC motor via a centrifugal clutch and
the drive belt.
The specified motor ratings are minimum values which are based on the in-
creased starting current. Since the current consumption of the motor drops after
start-up, overloading of the motor during operation is not possible.
The starting time depends on the
- flywheel effect of the bowl,
- number of clutch shoes used,
- condition of the clutch shoes.
The starting current can peak at about 1.8 - 2 times the rated current (see start-
up diagram). This is to be considered when selecting switches, lead-in wires
and fuses.
The motor
- can be started direct online (WS standard) or via a motor control for star-
delta switching (Ex-zone).

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator


100 2063-9001-200 I 0609

- is protected against overheating by thermal overload releases or a PTC


thermistor as sole protection.
(As WS standard, the motor is protected against overheating by three PTC
thermistors).
- can be equipped with a frequency converter if requested by the customer.
When using thermal overload releases, the motor has to be protected as fol-
lows:
- during operation by a release set to the rated current and
- during start-up by a second release set to 1.8 - 2 times the rated current.
The release set to the rated current must be bridged during start-up.

Note:
" The temperature feelers must be connected to a commercial tripping device.

" External voltage higher than 2.5 volts must not be applied to the connection
terminals of the temperature feelers.
" When testing for continuity, use an ohmmeter and not a test lamp.

Electrical connection

CAUTION: Danger to life and limb through electric current!


There might be residual voltage!
In the case of motors with space heaters, residual voltages in the motor
terminal box are possible despite switched off main switch.

Prior to working on the motor:


" Refer to the motor nameplate.
" Refer to the motor instruction manual.
" Take adequate preventive measures according to the national provisions (in
Germany in accordance with the rules and regulations of the VOE (Associa-
tion of German Electrical Engineers) or of the local electric power company .
.. Any work on the motor may be carried out by an authorized electrician
only.

4.3.1 Maintenance schedule

ATTENTION!
The following maintenance intervals are recommendations which apply only for normal operating
conditions.
Negative operating conditions (e.g. low-grade fuel, excessively high temperature, strong vibrations,
frequent starting and stopping of the separator etc.) can necessitate shorter maintenance intervals.

To assure correct functioning and operating safety,


• in case of non-routine shut-down, see section 3.7 - manual operation.
• Pay attention to the following points during servicing:
- Oil level - Current consumption
- Temperatures - Starting time
- Pressures - Hoses and hose pipes (see 4.3.2)
- Leakage - Pipe joints
- Vibrations
• Before every assembly, grease the main components of the bowl at guide and contact surfaces (see section 4.3.4 -
lubrication schedule).
• in the case of frequent starting and stopping of the separator, shaft-driven alternator operation and in power plants, the
condition of the clutch shoes must be checked more often than stated in this schedule. It is not possible to state a defini-
tive time. We recommend checking the clutch shoes after 1000 operating hours or after 2 months at the latest.
• We recommend having the separator checked by a WS service specialist once a year.

4.3.6 Comments on table of lubricating oils for separators from Westfalia Separator

Faultless functioning of separators very much depends on the proper type of lubricating oil used, since a
high grade oil, selected to meet all service requirements, will minimize the wear, thus extending the ser-
vice life and increasing the operating safety.
For the lubrication of our separators we recommend to use the oils specified by us since continuous qual-
ity checks are performed by Westfalia Separator. Oils proposed from some firms are not subjected to
these tests.
Therefore, Westfalia Separator cannot give a performance guarantee for those oils.
Be sure to select only high grade solvent refined products.
The specified oil types meet the requirements according to DIN. Under unfavourable operating condi-
tions, e.g. high temperatures, the quality of the oils may be insufficient so that more efficient oils, e.g.
synthetic oils, must be used. If necessary, consult Westfalia Separator.
For the different separator types and oil types the viscosity ranges are specified in the table of lubricating
oils.
The operating temperature of the separator exceeds normally 80 °C (176 °F). At those temperatures
some oils age quickly, so that they have to be changed prematurely.
Be sure not to use lubricating oils with viscosities lower than those specified in the table. Due to the pos-
sibility of the oil film breaking down, oil of too low a viscosity will give insufficient lubrication, resulting in
increased wear. However, oils with a slightly higher viscosity than specified may be used.
Bear in mind that the viscosity groups SAE 30, 40 and 50 (SAE = Society of Automotive Engineers)
cover larger viscosity ranges and be sure to select lubricating oils with viscosities not lower than the
minimum values of the viscosity ranges restricted for the different separator types.

4.4.2 Cleaning the bow!


It is generally not necessary to dismantle self-cleaning bowls for cleaning after
separation unless
- the nature of the product makes it necessary,
- the separator is to be shut down for a lengthy period (see section 4.9) .
.. Dismantle and clean the bowl for checking from time to time. See section
4.3.1 - Maintenance schedule .
.. Use only a cleaning agent that is approved for the field of application!

.. Do not use acid or chloric cleaning agents.


Chlorine attacks stainless steel parts .

.. Dissolve dried scale with citric acid .

.. For cleaning the individual disks and bowl parts


Do not use metal scrapers and metal brushes!

" Take the gaskets out of the bowl


parts.
.. Clean the grooves and gaskets to
avoid corrosion in the grooves.
e Replace damaged, very swollen,
hardened or brittle gaskets immedi-
ately.

4.4.6 Important instructions for assembling the bowl

CAUTION: Danger of imbalance!


When the bowl has not been correctly assembled or is inadequately cleaned,
forces can be produced in the high-speed rotating bowl which endanger the
operating safety of the separator!
Therefore, the cleaning instructions (section 4.4.2) and assembling instructions
(section 4.4.7) must be exactly followed.

Pay particular attention to the following:

ATTENTION!
" Before assembling the bowl, check to be sure that the guide and contact sur-
faces of the bowl are clean.
" Grease the guide surfaces as specified in the lubrication schedule (see 4.3.4).

" Some bowl parts are arranged in


I fixed positions relative to one an-
other.

Q " Locking devices and alignment


marks must be in perfect condition.
IMPORTANT:
The bowl must otherwise not be op-

~ erated.

1.1 Correct usage


Centrifugal separators - called separators in short - are used
" for the separation of liquid mixtures which consist of two liquids, with simulta-
neous removal of the solids contained in the liquids .
., for removing (clarifying) solids from a liquid.

The separator is designed


" for a very high bowl speed.
The admissible bowl speed depends on the chemical and physical properties
of the product:
- Temperature
- Density of the fluid and solid components.
"' for products which contain no corrosive and erosive components.
The aggressiveness of the product influences the careful selection of the bowl
material.
Only products conforming to the specifications on the nameplate may be
processed.
" in accordance with the method of application of the separator agreed with
Westfalia Separator. Refer to the data sheet and contractually agreements .
.. in accordance with the admissible utilities (cleaning agents, lubricants, operat-
ing liquids etc.) specified in the documentation or on the data sheet

Intended use involves


., paying attention to the safety precautions, the instruction manual of the sepa-
rator and the safety markings on the separator.
" adhering to the data on the nameplate, e.g. maximum admissible bowl speed.
Further information on the intended use of the separator such as
- agreed areas,
- density of the product
- throughput capacities
- temperatures
- pressures etc.
is given in the documentation or the data sheet furnished with the documenta-
tion.
The contractually agreed conditions agreed with Westfalia Separator on the in-
tended use of the separator must be passed on to the operating personnel by
the plant operator.

Any operating mode deviating from this is not intended use and can result
in severe damage to property and persons!

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfa!ia Separator


2064-9001-200 I 0909 11

1.2 Non-compliance with the intended use


Any use that deviates from the intended use is considered to be non-
compliant.

The separator may not be operated by:


.. Persons who have not read and understood these basic safety precautions .
., Persons who have not read and understood the instruction manual of the
separator.
• Persons who have not been briefed on proper and correct operation .
.. Persons who have not been adequately trained .
.. Persons who have not reached the minimum age of 18 years.

The separator may not be operated


" when the product fed does not conform to the specifications on the name-
plate.
- Product with excessively high density
- Solids with excessively high density
- Product with excessively high temperature
" when the max. admissible bowl speed has been exceeded through electrical
or electronic manipulation of the drive.
• in an incomplete state of assembly, e.g.
- required supervisory equipment is not activated or has been switched off.
- the required safety and/or protective covers have not been installed.
e by persons who are not adequately trained.
• when the separator is operated with spare parts which do not come from
Westfalia Separator.

Non-compliance with intended use can result in severe damage to prop-


erty and persons!

1.4 Basic operating principles


Separators are used for the separation of liquid mixtures or for the separation of
solids out of liquids or liquid mixtures.

High centrifugal forces are produced in


the rotating bowl.

501

Fig. 13

Under the influence of the centrifugal forces, separation of the liquid mixture
and/or ejection of the solids particles takes place most rapidly.
The specifically heavier components are displaced to the bowl periphery, whe-
reas the specifically lighter components are displaced towards the centre of the
bowl.
The high centrifugal force is produced by very high bowl speeds. On the one
hand, high bowl speeds signify high efficiency, while on the other hand, they
signify high material stressing of the separator.

1.5.8 Voltage cutoff during operation


When the voltage is cut off for longer than one second during operation, the
control system switches off automatically and the separating process is aborted.
Important:
- The bowl is not emptied. Product and solids remain in the bowl.
- The separator motor and product feed pump will be switched off.
- The control system switches itself back on automatically when the power
returns.

After the power returns


" Switch on the separator motor and product feed pump.
A closing water pulse after run-up of the separator triggers a total ejection
automatically.

When unusual noises or vibrations


occur on the separator:
.. Immediately shut down the separa-
tor with filled bowl via "emergency-
off'.
" Evacuate the room.
" Do not re-enter the room until the
separator has come to a standstill.

1.5.9 Maintenance and repair


Unfavourable operating conditions may require shorter maintenance intervals.
The factors listed below are unfavourable because they either attack the sepa-
rator material directly or impair the lubrication/cooling system:
.. Aggressive product (chemical or physical)
.. High product temperature
.. Product with grease-decaying properties
" Environment: Temperature, dust, vapours

Particularly high-stressed separator


parts like
- Bowl lock ring,
- bowl bottom,
- bowl top and
- other bowl parts with a large outer
diameter
must be checked regularly to assure
safe and efficient operation.

Fig. 45

Timely maintenance of the separator and replacement of worn or damaged ma-


chine parts is essential for safe operation of the machine.
Use only genuine spare parts from Westfalia Separator. Otherwise, safety
risks may arise (see section 1.5.2)

Carry out the required cleaning thoroughly.


One-sided solid deposits in the bowl cause severe unbalance!

Maintenance and repair work may only be carried out to the extent described in
this instruction manual.

Maintenance and repair work not described in this manual may only be
carried out by the manufacturer or by "repair shops" authorized by the
manufacturer.
We, therefore, recommend in your own interest to have your separator in-
spected by our service engineers at regular intervals. These checks help to
maintain the operating safety and avoid unexpected downtime.

1.6 Corrosion
Corrosion can also affect bowl parts made of stainless steel. This corrosion can
be flat-spread or pit- or crack-shaped and merits special attention.
Corrosion on stainless steel bowl material should be examined thoroughly and
documented.
Flat-spread corrosion can usually be measured (reduction of wall thickness)
Pit- or crack-shaped corrosion cannot be measured without the risk of damage.
At the initial stage pit-shaped corrosion is generally caused by chlorine ions.
Depending on the stressing of the part, pit-shaped corrosion can result in crack-
shaped corrosion.

Possible formation of pit-shaped cor-


rosion.

535

Fig. 53

Such pittings can only be investigated by a materials expert.

In case of crack-shaped corrosion attack with or without superposed flat-


spread and pit-shaped corrosion on main bowl components, the machine
must be shut down immediately.

Contact your nearest Westfalia Separator representative for a thorough exami-


nation.

Pittings
Pittings which are close together or
form a linear pattern can signify crack
formation beneath the surface.
Such pittings should be investigated by
a materials expert.

1.7 Erosion
Erosion is caused by solid particles in the process liquid.
These solid particles grind marks into the surfaces with which they come into
contact.
The following factors favour the occurrence of erosion:
" hard solids particles
" high throughput capacities

The first signs of erosion should be carefully observed and documented. Ero-
sion can deepen rapidly, thereby weakening the bowl material.

Contact your nearest Westfalia Separator representative for a thorough exami-


nation. Information on the nature of the damage can be provided by photos,
plaster casts or lead molds.

540

Fig. 55

The surfaces most susceptible to erosion are:

1) U1e bottom of the distributor, the rising channels and the ribs,
2) the centripetal pump (cavitation),
3) all surfaces in the area of the solids discharge ports
4) the nozzles.

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator


2064-9001-200 I 0909 35

Signs of erosion which you should


immediately report to your nearest
Westfalia Separator representative:
" The bottom of the erosion mark has
radius < imm a radius smaller than 1 mm (large
notch effect).
" The depth of erosion mark exceeds
1 mm (0.04 inch) at the deepest
point.

1.8 The health hazards involved when handling heavy oils and lube oils

As a result of the deterioration in quality of fuel oils, the danger has arisen that the heavy oils used on
board contain greater amounts of substances injurious to health. These include:
- polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,
- lead compounds,
- chemical residues.
An increased amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is also present in used lube oils (waste oils).
The health hazards for the engine room staff depend to a large extent
" on the concentrations of the dangerous substances,
.. the ambient air (inhalation of oil vapours/oil mist),
" the intensity and duration of the contact with the skin or mucous membrane.

Possible short-term effects:


" headaches,
.. dizziness,
" nausea,
" itching or burning of the skin,

Possible long-term effects:


• allergic reactions, especially skin allergies,
" festering inflammation of the skin pores (oil-acne),
.. damage to the central nervous system after inhalation over a long period,
.. skin cancer caused by direct skin contact over a long period,
" Lung cancer or cancer of the digestive organs after inr1alation over a long period
(not certain as the causes are difficult to separate from the effects of smoking and alcohol).

1.8.1 Code of practice and personal protective measures

" Avoid skin contact with heavy oils or lube oils if possible!
- Wear suitable protective gloves.
- Apply a protective ointment to the skin (e.g. ointment no. 76), especially if no protective gloves are
worn!
" Avoid breathing in oil vapours if possible!
$ If possible, improve the air circulation in the roon1l
Fully open the air regulation flaps in the outlets of the air supply ducts in the centrifuge and filter area.
.. Wash affected areas of skin frequently and thoroughly!
Apply protective ointment to the skin!
.. Personal hygiene is of the utmost importance!
" Change dirty overalls regularly!
• Exercise special care when carrying out maintenance work on and cleaning heavy oil and lube oil cen-
trifuges and filters!

2.3 General
The machine described in this manual is a high-speed centrifugal separator with
self-cleaning bowl.
"Separation" means the separation of liquid mixtures which consist of two liq-
uids, with simultaneous removal of the solids contained in the liquids.
"Clarification" is the removal of solids from a liquid.
Prerequisite for treatment technology (separation) is that the components of the
product
- can be separated mechanically,
- have different densities and
- do not emulsify.

2.4 OSE ... -91-...


The separator OSE ... -91-...
.. is equipped with a self-cleaning disk bowl,
.. is used for clarification and separation in fuel and lube oil treatment plants.
• operates with regulating rings (see section 2.6).
The most important part of the separator is the bowl. The bowl
• is configured as a purifier bowl at the factory,
.. can - depending on the application - be converted to function as a clarifier or
purifier bowl.
Conversion of the purifier bowl into a clarifier bowl is possible in a few simple
steps (see diagrams).

In the case of the purifier bowl:


" Mount the centripetal pump chamber
cover with bores.
IMPORTANT: All holes of the cen-
tripetal pump chamber cover must
be open!
• Select the regulating ring (see sec-
tion 2.6).

42 2064-9001-200 I 0909

In the case of the clarifier bowl:


" ATTENTION! Mount the centripetal
pump chamber cover (without
bores!) for operation in clarifier
mode.
" Request the part number of the cen-
tripetal pump chamber cover from
the supplier.

IPos. Designation Function

Centripetal pump • discharges the purified liquid under pressure.


" is firmly connected to hood 2 of the separator.

" The disk provided with channels


dips into the liquid rotating with the
bowl.
" The liquid
- is pared off by the centripetal
pump and
- flows through its spiral channels
from the outside to the inside.
By this means the kinetic energy is
converted into pressure energy
which makes possible discharging
the liquid under pressure.

3 Sensing liquid pump • operates on the same principle as centripetal


pump 1.
• conveys the sensing liquid to the monitoring
system.

~

T2058077

Fig. 65

IPos. Designation Function


Bowl produces high centrifugal forces through rotation
making possible separation and clarification.
2 Distributor accelerates the product fed in through feed A to
the rotational velocity of the bowl and then con··
veys it into the disk stack.
3 Disk stack " splits the liquid mixture consisting of a light
and heavy phase, e.g. oil-water, into its com-
ponents .
.. consists of a large number of conical disks
positioned on top of one another.
Each disk is provided with spacers so that pre-
cisely defined interspaces are formed between
the individual disks.
The smooth disk surfaces facilitate sliding of the
solids and hence self-cleaning of the disks.
Separation chamber The separation space consists of a large number
of parallel chambers of low height. This pro-
duces very srnaii radiai sedimentation paths for
the product.

Solids collect on the upper wall of each disk interspace


and slide down into the solids holding space.
4 Solids holding space collects the solids separated in the disk stack.

2.6 Regulating ring


Perfect separation of a liquid mixture is only possible when the bowl has been
correctly adapted to the density difference between the light liquid (e.g. oil) and
the heavy liquid (e.g. water).

To achieve this, select and fit the regu-


lating ring from the set furnished (with
different inner diameters) whose inner
diameter corresponds to the difference
in density between the two liquid com-
ponents.

8205211

Fig. 73 Regulating ring (example)

The inner diameter of the regulating ring to be selected can be determined from
the table or empirically. The general rule of thumb is:
" narrow regulating ring for heavy oil
" wide regulating ring for light oil.

liquid of 1.0 kg/dm .

Important!
If light liquid discharges through the heavy liquid discharge, the next smaller
regulating ring must be fitted.

2.6.2 Determination by experiment


(explained using the example of oil purification)
Always try a wide regulating ring and then the next smaller ring.
When the regulating ring is too wide the discharging water contains oil.
When the regulating ring is too narrow the discharging clean oil contains water.
The water may look milky or dirty. The coloration comes from the washing of the
oil.
In the bowl, a separation zone is formed between the light and heavy phases
whose centre is the separating line.
After opening the bowl, the position of the separating zone can be recognised
by the almost always visible separating line between water and oil on the under-
side of the separating disk.

Correctly selected regulating ring


The separating line between water and
variable
oii is at the outer edge of the discs.

Effect:
- The discharging clean oil is free of
water.
- The discharging water is free of oil.

Fig. 74

Regulating ring too wide


The separating line between water and
too wide oil runs
- far outside the discs and
- too close to the outer edge of the
separating disk.
Effect:
- The discharging clean oil is free of
v.;atcr.
- The discharging water contains oil or
- oil breaks the water seal.

Fig. 75

Regulating ring too narrow


The separating iine between the iiquid
components does not pass at the outer
edge of the discs but further inwards.

Effect:
- The discharging clean oil contains
water.
- The discharging water is free of oil.

B Throughput capacity (x 1000 l/h)
C Scale area of flowmeter

The throughput capacity of the separator (volume of product to be treated fed by


unit of time) can be determined with the aid of the diagram.

Procedure:
.. Read the value on the scale of flowmeter 2 (see Fig. 80 ).
e.g. 3
.. From the value read from the scale (e.g. 3) draw a line up to the curve of the
inner diameter of the built-in orifice plate A (e.g. 0 10) .
.. Read the throughput rate B appearing vertically below:
e.g. 2.7 (= 2 700 l/h)

The precision in throughput determination depends on the following characteris-


tics of the product to be processed:
- 'Jiscosity
- Temperature
- Density
The parameters mentioned here can lead to inexact determination of the
throughput rate.

3.1 Technical information


Take note of the following sections:

3.1.1 Notes on separation


The separator is used for clarification and separation in fuel and lube oil treat-
ment plants.
The best separation effect is obtained with low viscosity of the product to be
separated.
The separator operates economically with the separating temperatures and ca-
pacities specified by us. Refer to the data sheet and contractual agreements.

Procedure:
'" Select the desired operating mode on the control unit.
" Set the separating time on the control unit.

.. Start the separator (see 3.2).

3.1.2 General information on bowl ejection


The bowl is ejected automatically at full speed during the program sequence.
The ejection time is determined by the preset separating time.
For determining the separating time see 3.5.

Sequence of an ejection (example)

1. Separating time has elapsed.


2. Product feed valve is closed.
3. Displacement water displaces the fuel oil to the clean oil side.
4. Operating water opens and closes the bowl hydraulically at full bowl
speed.
5. Waiting time for speed recovery.
6. Filling water supply
7. Product valve is opened.
8. Separating time resumes.

Displacement
" When separating, the loss of feed liquid unavoidable during ejection can be
reduced to a minimum by displacing the feed liquid with water before sludge
ejection takes place (especially important when processing valuable feed liq-
uid).
'" The duration of displacement water supply is given in the timer overview (see
control unit manual).
" If the displacement time is too long, water will discharge through the light liq-
uid outlet.
" If the displacement time is too short, part of the product remains in the bowl
and is lost during desludging.

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator


2064-9001-200 I 0909 69

Flush ejection
If the solids cant be completely ejected,
- due to an excessively long dwell time in the bowl or
- are stuck to firmly on the wall of the solids holding space due to the solids
properties,
" either the separating time must be shortened or
" a flush ejection must be carried out after the total ejection by filling the bowl
with water or product and emptying it again.

Program control
" "Displacement", "ejection", "filling" and "flush ejections" at precisely defined
intervals are best carried out with the automatic control unit.
.. The clean oil discharge and water discharge can be monitored.
• Faults can be signalled visually or audibly.

" On your daily round, especially during the first 1500 operating hours, pay at-
tention to the following:
- Oil level
- Temperatures
- Pressures
- Leakage
- Vibrations
- Current consumption
- Starting time
- Hoses and hose pipes
- Pipe joints
.. Keep to the maintenance schedule (see 4.3.1 )!

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator


2064-9001-200 I 0909 75

.. Inspection
We, therefore, recommend in your own interest to have your separator in-
spected by our service engineers once a year. These checks help to
- maintain the operating safety of the machine and
- avoid unscheduled downtime.

Important!

" Regularly check plant components such as hose pipes, sight glasses for signs
of aging and mechanical damage.
• Damaged plant components must be replaced immediately by new parts.

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator


76 2064-9001-200 I 0909

3.5 Setting the separation time


When using time-dependent automatic control programs, accurate setting of the
separation time (time between ejection cycles) is only possible if the throughput
capacity and solids loading in the feed remain constant. If this is not the case, it
may be necessary to correct the settings during operation.
The separating time depends on
© the preselected operating mode (partial or total ejection mode),

" the solids loading in the feed,


.. the consistency of the solids,
" the effective solids space volume in the bowl,
" the separator throughput.
Given constant conditions, the separating time can be determined by calcula-
tion.
The following times have proven appropriate in practice (examples):

Product Total ejection Partial ejection


HFO max. 2 h max. 1 h
MOO max. 2 h max. 1 h
DO max. 4 h max. 2 h
LO mild max. 4 h max. 2 h
LOHD max. 2 h max. 1 h

3.5.1 Mathematical calculation


Example for mathematical calculation of the separating time:
1
Given: Solids content < l p :::;; 0.05 %
Solids holding space volume v = 1.51
Solids holding space given 75 % utilisation v· = 1.13 I
Throughput capacity
1
< '
vo :::: 2 000 l/h
Wanted: Separating time t =?min

The separating tirne to be set is calculated as follows:

1.13
• 60 • 100 :::: • 6000 = 57.8min = 1.1 h
2 000 • 0.05

the order specification.

CAUTION: Danger of injury through very hot separator parts!


When carrying out maintenance work, there is a danger of injury through hot
separator parts (separating temperatures of 70 to 100 °C (158 - 212 °F).

3.7.1 Shut-down "Emergency-Off"


In a hazardous situation (unusual noises or vibrations) or in the case of damage
to the separator or plant components (e.g. burst hoses), a manual quick shut-
down of the installation can be carried out.
Depending on the version, the control cabinet is equipped with:
- a main switch (yellow-red) with integrated "Emergency:Off" function and
additional connection for an external "Emergency-Off'-switch (example 1),
- an "Emergency-Off" switch (yellow-red), a main switch (grey-black) and ad-
ditional connection for an external "Emergency-Off'-switch (example 2) or
- an "Emergency-Off" switch (yellow-red), a main switch (grey-black) and ad-
ditional connection, via approved "Emergency-Off" relay for several "Emer-
gency-Off"-switches (example 2).

* WS standard
The separator is driven by a three-phase AC motor via a centrifugal clutch and
the drive belt.
The specified motor ratings are minimum values which are based on the in-
creased starting current. Since the current consumption of the motor drops after
start-up, overloading of the motor during operation is not possible.
The starting time depends on the
- flywheel effect of the bowl,
- number of clutch shoes used,
- condition of the clutch shoes.
The starting current can peak at about 1.8 - 2 times the rated current (see start-
up diagram). This is to be considered when selecting switches, lead-in wires
and fuses.
The motor
- can be started direct online (WS standard) or via a motor control for star-
delta switching (Ex-zone).

Mechanical Separation I GEA Westfalia Separator

- is protected against overheating by thermal overload releases or a PTC


thermistor as sole protection.
(As WS standard, the motor is protected against overheating by three PTC
thermistors).
- can be equipped with a frequency converter if requested by the customer.
When using thermal overload releases, the motor has to be protected as fol-
lows:
- during operation by a release set to the rated current and
- during start-up by a second release set to 1.8 - 2 times the rated current.
The release set to the rated current must be bridged during start-up.

Note:
" The temperature feelers must be connected to a commercial tripping device.

" External voltage higher than 2.5 volts must not be applied to the connection
terminals of the temperature feelers .
., When testing for continuity, use an ohmmeter and not a test lamp.

Electrical connection

CAUTION: Danger to life and limb through electric current!


There might be residual voltage!
In the case of motors with space heaters, residual voltages in the motor
terminal box are possible despite switched off main switch.

Prior to working on the motor:


.. Refer to the motor nameplate.
.. Refer to the motor instruction manual.
.. Take adequate preventive measures according to the national provisions (in
Germany in accordance with the rules and regulations of the VOE (Associa-
tion of German Electrical Engineers) or of the local electric power company.
" Any work on the motor may be carried out by an authorized electrician
only.

" Connect the motor.

In case of frequency converter operation:


The frequency converter is equipped with a reliable frequency limitation to pre-
vent operation at inadmissibly high bowl speeds.

CAUTION!
" Operate the separator with fre-
quency converter, speed monitor-
ing device and hardware-
controlled speed shut-off device.
" Do not under any circumstances
manipulate the frequency con-
verter to exceed the permissible
bowl speed (see nameplate)!
"' Check from time to time that
- the bowl speed (see nameplate)
and

4.3 Maintenance and lubrication

.. Special care must be taken when performing maintenance and lubrication


operations.
Conscientiously performed maintenance and lubrication operations improve
the service life of the separator .
.. In the case of accessories (motor, product pump, preheater, solenoid valve
block etc.) the manufacturer's maintenance and lubrication instructions must
be observed.
" Maintenance and repair work may be carried out only by persons
- who are demonstrably familiar with the state-of-the-art through briefings
and training.
- who are adequately qualified for performing the work and checking it.
.. Electrical work may only be carried out by an authorized electrician!

4.3.1 Maintenance schedule

ATTENTION!
The following maintenance intervals are recommendations which apply only for normal operating
conditions.
Negative operating conditions (e.g. low-grade fuel, excessively high temperature, strong vibrations,
frequent starting and stopping of the separator etc.) can necessitate shorter maintenance intervals.

To assure correct functioning and operating safety,


• in case of non-routine shut-down, see section 3.7 - manual operation.
• Pay attention to the following points during servicing:
- Oil level - Current consumption
- Temperatures - Starting time
- Pressures - Hoses and hose pipes (see 4.3.2)
- Leakage - Pipe joints
- Vibrations
• Before every assembly, grease the main components of the bowl at guide and contact surfaces (see section 4.3.4 -
lubrication schedule).
• in the case of frequent starting and stopping of the separator, shaft-driven alternator operation and in power plants, the
condition of the clutch shoes must be checked more often than stated in this schedule. It is not possible to state a defini-
tive time. We recommend checking the clutch shoes after 1000 operating hours or after 2 months at the latest.
• We recommend having the separator checked by a WS service specialist once a year.

4.3.6 Comments on table of lubricating oils for separators from Westfalia Separator

Faultless functioning of separators very much depends on the proper type of lubricating oil used, since a
high grade oil, selected to meet all service requirements, will minimize the wear, thus extending the ser-
vice life and increasing the operating safety.
For the lubrication of our separators we recommend to use the oils specified by us since continuous qual-
ity checks are performed by Westfalia Separator. Oils proposed from some firms are not subjected to
these tests.
Therefore, Westfalia Separator cannot give a performance guarantee for those oils.
Be sure to select only high grade solvent refined products.
The specified oil types meet the requirements according to DIN. Under unfavourable operating condi-
tions, e.g. high temperatures, the quality of the oils may be insufficient so that more efficient oils, e.g.
synthetic oils, must be used. If necessary, consult Westfalia Separator.
For the different separator types and oil types the viscosity ranges are specified in the table of lubricating
oils.
The operating temperature of the separator exceeds normally 80 °C (176 °F). At those temperatures
some oils age quickly, so that they have to be changed prematurely.
Be sure not to use lubricating oils with viscosities lower than those specified in the table. Due to the pos-
sibility of the oil film breaking down, oil of too low a viscosity will give insufficient lubrication, resulting in
increased wear. However, oils with a slightly higher viscosity than specified may be used.
Bear in mind that the viscosity groups SAE 30, 40 and 50 (SAE = Society of Automotive Engineers)
cover larger viscosity ranges and be sure to select lubricating oils with viscosities not lower than the
minimum values of the viscosity ranges restricted for the different separator types.
