Lynx 40 and CD-500 Big Bowl VFD High Speed Centrifuges
Large volume barite and low gravity solids separation for high rate drilling programs.
The big bowl machines are what you run when the mud system has to keep up with the pumps. Both are variable frequency drive, so bowl speed and differential are set to the fluid rather than fixed at the factory, and both carry the bowl length to hold cut point where circulating rates are high.
