An installation for drying a liquid-containing particulate product comprises a supporting frame, a centrifugal separator removably mounted thereon and a large receptacle for the particles ejected from a discharge end of the separator basket supported on the supporting frame. The receptacle has a vertical wall defining an opening and the centrifugal separator is mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis and is arranged with the discharge end of the basket facing the opening in the vertical wall and extending into the receptacle whereby the particles are ejected into the receptacle upon rotation of the basket, the opening having a diameter slightly in excess of the diameter of the discharge end of the basket. The separator may thus be horizontally moved for placing it in position with the discharge end extending into the receptacle and for removing it without dismounting the receptacle.
