<p>PCT No. PCT/SE95/00877 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 18, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 18, 1997 PCT Filed Jul. 20, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/03214 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 8, 1996Method and equipment for monitoring a centrifugal separator, with a separation chamber (6), a radially inner outlet (18, 19, 20) connected to the separation chamber (6), which is connected to an outlet conduit (21), a flow sensor (28) in the outlet conduit (21) being arranged to indicate a flow in the outlet conduit, an intermittently operable radially outer outlet (7) connected to the separation chamber (6), the flow of the separated component in the outlet conduit (21) ceasing temporarily until the separation chamber (6) has been refilled. In order to monitor the centrifugal separator in a reliable and easy manner the time for the refilling of the separation chamber (6) is measured and is compared with a shortest allowable time for the refilling of the separation chamber (6) stored and a signal is given if the measured time is shorter than the shortest allowable time stored in the memory.</p> |
