The Alfa Laval DX 409 Separator is a reliable and efficient disc stack centrifuge engineered for demanding industrial separation processes. Built with Alfa Laval’s advanced centrifugal technology, this model is ideal for continuous separation of immiscible liquids and removal of fine solid particles.
At the core of the DX 409 is a high-speed rotating bowl equipped with a precisely configured disc stack. This design significantly increases the effective settling area, allowing for superior separation efficiency even with very fine particles. The machine operates at high rotational speeds (typically in the range of 5,000–7,000 RPM), generating strong centrifugal forces that accelerate the separation process compared to gravity-based systems.
The separator is constructed from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring durability, corrosion resistance, and compliance with hygiene standards required in industries such as dairy, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. It features an automatic or semi-automatic solids discharge mechanism, minimizing downtime and allowing continuous operation.
