718 18X50 VFD Centrifuge
Surface Rentals > Solids Control > Centrifuges > 718 18X50 VFD Centrifuge

Peak 718 VFD centrifuges can handle high volumes of abrasive solids due to their variable frequency drive, which ensures optimal performance. The 60 HP, explosion-proof motor and 20 HP Gorman Rupp feed pump make this a high capacity centrifuge.

An integrated LCD keypad allows operators to separately control the main drive and feed pump. To ensure operator safety, the drive is housed in a steel, weatherproof cabinet. Stelite wear liners are installed on all wear areas.

The straightforward operation of the 718 works most effectively with clean floc water drilling and chemical separation. Additionally, the 718 can compliment the Peak Auger Tank as part of the combination unit for single
load moves of centrifuges and specialized drilling tanks.
