LX 576 on skid with peripheral equipment Purification of active pharmaceutical ingredients (antibiotics). FOOD INDUSTRY Purification of food compounds (carboxylic acid). Washing (polymers), extraction (acetic acid), effluent treatment (phenol extraction from an aqueous phase). Separation and purification (precious metals). Perfumery, aromas, essential oils... MAIN FEATURES • All parts in contact with the product are made of stainless steel AISI 316L, 904L, or Alloy C22, with PTFE seals. • Bearing box with ball bearings (LX 120/200) or roller bearings lubricated with grease and pneumatic seal. • Tank assembly mounted on a support frame equipped with all piping (inlets and outlets for different phases, drainage for bowl emptying when stopped, nitrogen injection, vent, etc.). • Equipment complies with CE directives and ATEX standards (for applicable countries). • Transmission assembly includes a sealed or ATEX electric motor connected to a frequency converter. • Frame mounted on anti-vibration supports. MULTI-STAGE CENTRIFUGAL EXTRACTOR LX

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS • Decantation chamber: Where the previously mixed liquids are separated by centrifugal force. A set of two outlet weirs stabilizes the separation zone independently of flow rates. The interphase position depends on the diameter of the heavy phase weir, which is interchangeable and defined based on the density ratio of the two phases. The phase to be extracted (heavy phase in the principle diagram), initially containing one or more solutes in solution, and the solvent (light phase in the principle diagram), which must be immiscible with the phase to be extracted and of different...

SPECIFIC ADVANTAGES OF MULTI-STAGE VERSIONS • JUp to 7 stages in a single machine, offering high extraction efficiency. • Each stage corresponds approximately to a theoretical extraction stage • Exceptionally compact design with minimal floor space requirements. • Extractor can be installed on a handling skid for easy mobility. • Low operating and maintenance costs (single rotor/single motor). • Centripetal turbines allow pressurized discharge of separated phases to storage tanks or downstream equipment (potentially another extractor for processes processes requiring many stages). Light phase...
