HAUS – DDV decanters for olive oil

The HAUS DDV olive oil decanter is a decanter centrifuge for extracting free oil from olive paste (first extraction) or olive pomace (second extraction). The decanter operates in two- or three-phase configuration with continuous solids discharge. Steiner Ukraine supplies HAUS decanters, selects the model for the capacity, and carries out installation, commissioning and service.

How does the olive oil decanter work?

The product enters the conveyor feed chamber through the feed pipe and, under centrifugal force, passes into the bowl, where it stratifies by density. Solids settle on the bowl wall, and the scroll conveyor transports them to the discharge in the conical section. Clarified liquid leaves over height-adjustable plates at the end of the cylindrical section. The solids conveying rate is determined by the speed difference between bowl and scroll.

In the three-phase version, the decanter separates the solid phase and two immiscible liquids.

How is the DDV series decanter built?

• food-grade materials and lubricants, easy access for washing and cleaning;
• material of construction, wear protection, motor power and gearbox torque are selected for the task.

The main motor drives the bowl, the secondary motor drives the scroll. Both motors are controlled by frequency converters and connected by a high-torque gearbox without a friction clutch. The differential speed is adjusted automatically to the amount of solids. On the touch panel with PLC, automatic modes are selected, sludge dryness is set and alarms are monitored.

Which models are in the DDV series?

The manufacturer also lists a DDV 4742 CENTRIPETAL version with installed power of 63.5 kW and a weight of 4100 kg.
