The Overflow Weir From Flottweg

The clarified liquid flows to the cylindrical end of the bowl in the decanter centrifuge, from where it runs out through openings in the bowl cover. These openings contain precisely adjustable weir discs/weir plates by means of which the pond depth in the bowl can be set. The clarified liquid runs out into the drain housing of the centrifuge without pressure. These precisely adjustable weir plates form the overflow weir of a Flottweg decanter centrifuge.

The Overflow Weir

When the weir plates are set up, they provide 40 different setting options. The weir plates are inserted on the hole circle diameter A or B. The values from the position of the eccentric discs are added to or subtracted from this hole circle diameter.
