Disc Nozzle Centrifuges
Fluid-Quip has combined many maintenance friendly features with proven separation technology to design a Disc Nozzle Centrifuge that operates with reliable efficiency and minimum downtime. No other Disc Nozzle Centrifuge on the market can compare, feature to feature.
FQC-800 • FQC-800T • FQC-800E • FQC-950 • FQC-950T • FQC-950E
DESIGN FEATURES
- Heavy Duty construction minimizes vibration and ensures structural stability. All outer housing components constructed of 316 stainless steel. The bowl, hub, and cover are made of Ferallium.
- Straight forward nozzle installation using a unique nozzle and tool system (Patent #6,216,959). Fluid-Quip’s unique nozzle tool enables nozzle installation, and removal through opening of underflow volute.
- Patented nozzles have an improved carbide insert flow passage and a unique removal slot that allows our removal tool to grab on to the nozzle for installation and removal.
- Inspection port in underflow volute allows nozzles to be inspected and replaced without raising the bowl or removing housing.
- Slide mounted motor supports work with an adjustment screw to quickly adjust belt tension.
- Improved lock ring design allows for consistent, simple, and safe removal, time after time.
- Local panels are offered for monitoring both bearing temperatures, vibration, lubrication rate, and RPM
- Wash water injected directly into bowl to allow for increased wash rates and improved washing efficiency.
- Many internal rotating components interchangeable with existing models.
- Disc Nozzle Centrifuges can be tailored to each unique operation: Primary Service, Gluten Thickening, Mill Stream Thickening, or Clarifying
SPECIFICATIONS
- Ferallium 255 Bowl, hub, and cover. All other process contact parts, including housing made of 316 stainless steel.
- Carbon Steel base, column, and radial arm.
- Oil drip bearing lubrication system (oil recirculation system available)
- Vibration monitor and bearing temperature monitor
- Built in hydraulic hoist actuated by external hydraulic power system

FQC-950 Primary Centrifuge
The FQC-950 Centrifuge offers the highest capacity for Fluid-Quip Disc Nozzle Centrifuges. The centrifuge can handle 40,000 BPD (1000 MTPD) of equivalent grind rate in Primary and Gluten Thickening operation.
FQC-800 Centrifuge
The FQC-800 Centrifuge offers the highest capacity for Fluid-Quip Disc Nozzle Centrifuges. The centrifuge can handle 20,000 BPD (500 MTPD) of equivalent grind rate in Primary and Gluten Thickening operation.
Inspection Port
Inspections ports on underflow volutes work in conjuction with our special nozzle removal tool to allow operators to inspect or change nozzles without dissasembling the machine housing and raising the bowl.
FQC-800, FQC-800T, FQC-800E
Straight forward nozzle installation using a unique nozzle and tool system (Patent #6,216,959). Fluid-Quip’s unique nozzle tool enable s nozzle installation, and removal through opening of underflow volute. Fluid-Quip uses a patented Nozzle design (Patent #6,511,005) with improved flow passages along with increased wear protection. Bowl, hub and cover are made with a duplex alloy Ferralium 255 with high strength and superior wear resistance. Local panels are offered for monitoring both bearing temperatures, vibration, lubrication rate, and RPM. A 4-20 mA signal can be relayed to the central controller. The adjustable lubrication system provides optimum lubrication while reducing operating temperature. Oil is provided to the system by drip and is monitored by a fiber optic sensor. The drip rate is displayed on a local panel, and a 4-20 mA signal is relayed to the central controller.
Fluid-Quip offers a 30” MST and Clarifier with grind rate capacities up to 40,000 BPD (1000 MTPD). Fluid-Quip’s 30” Primary with grind rate capacities up to 20,000BPD (500 MTPD). Fluid-Quip’s 30” GT with grind rate capacities up to 20,000 BPD (500 MTPD).
