Product Description

The Alfa Laval MAPX-309-BGT-14-60 is a high-speed disc stack centrifuge designed for three-phase separation — capable of separating two immiscible liquid phases and solids in one operation. This desludger is constructed with a stainless steel and bronze bowl, and features a hinged aluminum bowl top cover for ease of maintenance.

It is equipped with a 15 HP flange-mounted drive motor (208/230/460V, 3-phase, 60Hz), and operates at bowl speeds up to 5180 RPM, with a maximum throughput of approximately 9,000 liters per hour (LPH). Ideal for industrial, food, beverage, marine, and fuel applications.
