3.3 Separating function

Unseparated process liquid is fed into the bowl
through the inlet pipe and is pumped via the
distributor towards the periphery of the bowl.
When the process liquid reaches holes of the
distributor, it will rise through the channels formed
by the disc stack where it is evenly distributed.
The process liquid is continuously cleaned as it
flows towards the center of the bowl. When the
cleaned process liquid leaves the disc stack it
rises upwards and leaves the bowl through outlet
(220). Separated heavy phase flows over the

G0613211
gravity disc and leaves the bowl via outlet (221).
The sludge and solid particles are forced out
towards the periphery of the bowl and collected
on the bowl wall, the sludge space.
The space between bowl hood and top disc is
normally filled with heavy phase.
