Automatic Batch Centrifugals for High Purity Massecuites

World's Finest Centrifugal

Since the first electric drive centrifugals were produced in 1917, Western States has supplied more than 7,000 centrifugals to the world sugar industry. Today's Western States automatic batch centrifugal is a result of those years of experience. The Titan Series and the G-16 Standard combine the most modern technology with Western States' robust construction and proven reliability.



1. Head Design
Ball and quill design for self-centering operation. Basket oscillations dampened by an adjustable rubber buffer.
SSB Batch Centrifugal. 2. AC Motor
With Tork-Master(TM) Variable Frequency Drive is 100% regenerative to AC supply. Loading, spinning and plowing are performed with one, simple, easy to maintain, single-wound squirrel cage main drive motor.
3. Motion Sensors
Applies the brake if basket gyration or vibration exceeds a preset limit.
4. Disc Brake
Simple and reliable. Provides a safety backup.
5. Automatic Discharger
Pneumatically operated. Square shaft for strength. Profiled shoe for fast unloading. Spring loaded shoe tip for long screen life.
6. Enclosed Butterfly Feed Valve
Programmed to achieve "pinch action" valve throttling for higher capacity with synchronous operation of our improved Ultra-Sonic Load Sensor.
7. Elastomeric Coupling
Split design isolates the motor shaft from the basket loads. Elastomeric element absorbs shock loads.
8. Ultra-Sonic Load Sensor(TM)
Senses load and throttles gate for increased capacity. All stainless steel construction
9. Posi-Latch(TM) Valve
Downward opening. Mechanically latched in the closed position to prevent leakage during loading. Operating mechanism outside of basket for easy maintenance. All stainless steel construction.
10. Curb Top
Completely enclosed. One hinged door provides easy access for cleaning and inspection.
11. Basket
Industry's safest construction. All stress carried by multiple seamless rings. Stainless steel side sheet cap and bottom plate standard. Fully perforated for maximum drainage.
12. Wash Water Manifold
Adjustable spray pattern
13. Separable Spindle
Allows independent removal of basket or drive head.
14. Solenoid Valves 15. Monitor Case
Through-the-floor design for enhanced stability. Convenient curb top height.
16. Wash Ring
Works with Syrup Separator to provide more effective separation of the high and low purity molasses streams.
