GEA confirms cruise ship orders for marine separators

The company notes that it has reduced the unit’s footprint by 50%, and enhanced accessibility. The unit features an integrated direct drive with a synchronous motor. The unit’s spindle and motor have been made available for the first time as modular exchange drive units, while the new separator model is accessible from all sides, simplifying installation and maintenance.

The unit’s 96% efficiency offers potential savings of up to 30,000 kWh per year. As a result of the changes, the service interval for the separator’s modular exchange drive unit has been extended to 16,000 hours, while downtime has been reduced by up to 90%.
