Product catalog summary
Overview
Elgin's ESS-1450HD2 is a high-speed, fully-variable decanter centrifuge designed for efficient solids control and dewatering. It is suitable for industries such as food rendering, petrochemical, horizontal directional drilling, industrial wastewater, and oil & gas.

Effluent Management
The centrifuge features four stainless steel epicentric liquid-end discharge ports, allowing for adjustable pond depth settings. It is equipped with wide-mouth tungsten carbide discharge ports and plows to handle large volumes of erosive solids.

Power and Performance
The ESS-1450HD2 is powered by a 50 hp NEMA premium, energy-efficient main drive, capable of reaching speeds up to 3,250 rpm and generating over 2,100 G's of force. The use of a carbon fiber poly-chain drive eliminates the need for belt retensioning and reduces maintenance costs.

Rotating Assembly
The centrifuge's rotating assembly is made of stainless steel, with a diameter of 14 inches and a length of 49.5 inches, providing stability even at maximum speed. It includes SKF premium bearings and tungsten carbide-lined flights for durability.

Field Skid Configuration
The ESS-1450HD2 is assembled in an offset skid configuration for easy installation and maintenance. It features explosion-proof electrical controls and a redesigned lifting system for flexibility.

Control System
The centrifuge can be equipped with various drive options, including Dual-Sheave Poly-chain Mechanical Variable Drive (DSP MVD), Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), or Fully Variable Hydraulic Drive (FHD). The DSP MVD offers a cost-effective solution for operating at different speeds.

Touch Screen Control System
Elgin provides a proprietary touch-screen VFD control system with enhanced features such as internal lighting, ventilation, heating, and Ethernet porting for diagnostics. The system offers maximum operating flexibility and control.

ESS-1450HD2 Decanter Centrifuge-3

Control System Depending on your budget and performance needs, the ESS-I450HD2 can be fitted with either a Dual-Sheave Poly-chain, Mechanical Variable Drive (“DSP MVD”), Variable Frequency Drive (“VFD”), or Fully Variable Hydraulic Drive (“FHD”). Elgin's new DSP MVD provides a new low-cost alternative to operators. Elgin's DSP MVD allows operators to operate the ESS-1450HD2 at two different speeds without the complete disassembly of the fluid-end and sheaves, or the cost of the VFD control system. Instead, by simply loosening the jack bolts on the motor mount base-plate, the poly-chain can be...
