The MIB 303 separator features a new design concept for solid-bowl separators. Advanced manufacturing, design and drive technologies have contributed to a separator more compact and lightweight than conventional solid-bowl models.
Innovation and ergonomics
New design allows you to clean the bowl with the disc stack still in place
Throughput capacity of up to 1250 l/h of gas oil, 1000 l/h of diesel oil and 300 l/h of steam turbine lube oil
Direct drive with motor speed controlled by a frequency converter, eliminating gears and belts
No lubrication required
Small footprint allows installation in narrow spaces
Solid-bowl separators have never been easier to install, operate or maintain. The Alfa Laval MIB 303 and 503 systems feature new designs and materials that improve performance and usability – reducing maintenance man-hours and boosting oil system reliability.
How it works
Separation takes place in a rotating solid-wall bowl. Centrifugal force pushes water and solid particles outwards. Water collects in the seal, which drains into a channel underneath. Solids accumulate on the bowl wall and are easy to remove by hand.
Clean oil flows inwards and up to the paring disc. Since the clean oil is rotating, the stationary disc acts as a pump, forcing it through the outlet.
Choose the ideal system for your application
The MIB separator is available as a purifier or clarifier. If your application uses distillate or marine diesel oil, you should use it as a purifier. You can use it in either clarification or purification mode if you're cleaning lubricating oil.
