CENTREX®
Trouble-free silo discharge for sticky and cohesive materials with poor flow properties with First-in and First-out principle.
The logarithmically shaped discharge arm moves the bulkmaterial towards the central outlet underneath the inner cone, where it is discharged into a chute. The discharge arm acts the material from underneath the material column and reaches beyond the outlines of the silo wall, which avoids accumulations and prevents the bulk materialfrom sticking to the silo wall. Consequently, the material column is brought to descend in a regular and uniform manner, which maintains the homogeneity of the stored material, thus avoiding segregation and bridging.
The logarithmic design of the discharge arm prevents the bulk material from being compacted when moved to the central outlet. In addition it minimizes wear and requires less drive power.
On account of its very compact and rigid design, theCENTREX® is also an ideal solution for installation into or underneath existing bins or silos.
Three basic alternatives are available with the CENTREX®
system. The choice depends either on the technical features of the bulk material or on the type of application within a given process.
CENTREX® with internal drive type CTX-IVCENTREX® with external drive and stationary
inner cone type CTX-AVCENTREX® with external drive and rotating
inner cone type CTX-AFD
Material examples which can be discharged:
• FGD-Gypsum• Gypsum• Coal• Limestone• Clay• Marl• Wet ash

Q U A L I T Y
CENTREX® WITH INTERNAL DRIVETYPE CTX-IV
View through the hollow girder onto the drive unit
A CENTREX® with internal drive can be of shock-proof or entirely pressure and water-proof design. It is therefore particularly suitable for :
• Feeding of mills, dryers and kilns• Sludge discharge from sediment
retention basins• Discharge from silos operating with inert gas• Discharge from silos with poisonous materials• Recommended silo diameter of 2,5 - 8 m
Radially arranged support arms connect the innercone with the silo wall. With their roof-shaped uppersection serving as deflector plate, these support armsare designed to prevent the stored material from sticking to the arms.
At least one of these arms is enlarged to allow accessto the inside of the cone. The internal drive unit isaccessible and can be removed with the rope winchalso installed inside the cone.
This alternative with its compact design is a most economic solution.
Advantages internal drive:
• Minimum number of componentsrequired
• Almost maintenance free operation• Low construction height• Maintenance access through
support arm

Two separate lubrication lines: one to lubricate the gear of the slewing ring,
With this alternative, the inner cone, dischargearm and rotary chute form one unit designed for easy discharge of even extremely difficultbulk materials. The rotating movement of the cone activates the stored material and significantly improves the mass flow of the bulk material. The entire rotating unit is mounted onto a slewing ring with sphericalbearing and gear ring power transmission.
Due to the additional activation of the stored material caused by the rotation of the inner cone as part of the rotating unit, bridging is effectively prevented.
CENTREX®
WITH EXTERNAL DRIVE ANDSTATIONARY INNER CONETYPE CTX-AV
Advantages:
• Easy maintenance of drive unit and slewing ring
• Use also possible for silos done to 1 m diameter
• With rotating cone bridges will be destroyed
• High forques transferable with 2 or more drives

Q U A L I T Y
The drive unit of this CENTREX® design is fitted to the discharge bottom for easyaccess. This design also features radiallyarranged support plates connecting the inner cone with the silo wall.
This alternative with external drive and stationary inner cone offers ideal conditions for applications involving a high torque and requiring easy maintenance.
