Design

The system is being delivered with the standard components of the latest MIB 503 separator and the ancillary kit including the inlet and outlet flexible hoses.

The separator consists of a solids-retaining bowl which can operate both as a purifier and a clarifier. Its unique drive technology is based on an electric motor mounted directly to the bowl, controlled by a frequency converter located in the control cabinet.

To secure the optimum operation of the separator the following optional equipment are available.

A control cabinet with an integrated frequency converter to start/stop the separation process as well as troubleshoot alarms. A positive displacement pump with constant flow which is connected to the separator through the standard flexible hoses.
