Abstract
A disc stack of frustoconical separation discs is configured to be mounted in a separation chamber of a centrifugal separator. The discs are stacked upon each other in a manner forming narrow separation spaces between adjacent discs. The discs are welded to each other at radially outer portions of the discs. A rotor unit for a centrifugal separator, a centrifugal separator including a rotor unit, a method of providing a disc stack of frustoconical separation discs, and a method of providing a rotor unit for a centrifugal separator are also disclosed.
Claims10
A centrifugal separator for gas separation, comprising
- a disc stack of frustoconical separation discs configured to be mounted in a separation chamber of a centrifugal separator, the disc stack comprising:
- discs stacked upon each other in a manner forming narrow separation spaces between adjacent discs, each of the discs having an upper surface and a lower surface;
- a first end disc at a first axial end of the disc stack and a second end disc at a second axial end of the disc stack;
- welding sections extending between the upper surfaces and lower surfaces of the discs, the welding sections extending in a radial direction of the discs,
- wherein the disc stack is configured to rotate around a rotation axis during operation,
- wherein the discs are welded to each other via the welding sections, and
- wherein the welding sections extend beyond a circumferential edge of the respective disc.
