DM-5
- 8-12 week lead time
- 50% down at time of order
- Remaining due at time of shipment
DM-5 features:
- Continuous methanol recovery for reuse after a biodiesel reaction from combined reactant products of biodiesel and glycerol at a flow rate of 5 gpm (18.9 lpm)
- Base List Price: $59,000 USD + shipping
- Includes Class 1 Division 2 Air Purged Enclosure
- Intrinsically safe barrier for parts in contact with methanol
- Includes 5 ton chiller and chiller tank reservoir and pump
- Includes pump to move demethylated products from vacuum to 13 psi (30 feet of head) at 5 gpm.
Options:
- Sump tank(s) for biodiesel or glycerol pumping after separation
integrated into electrical enclosure. Signal can power a
contactor to run a pump to transfer the product.
List Price: $2,500 USD each tank.
- Additional flow switch for multiple holding or reactor tanks to allow for continuous flow from multiple tanks.
List Price: $1,200 USD each additional flow switch.
- EV-5 batch flash evaporator that recovers the residual methanol from the separated biodiesel. Tied to DM-5 to vacuum recover the methanol. Uses 22.5 kW of power.
List Price: $15,000 USD
- Power requirements: 208-240VAC Single Phase (50/60 Hertz) 30 Amp circuit, 20 Amps continuous
- Automatic operation with a PC-5 centrifuge (when purchased at the same time). One push of a button starts the process when fluids are available. When fluids run out or there is a fault condition, the system goes through a shutdown phase.
- Built in fault checking (motors, low fluid, etc.) with automatic shutdown or emergency shutdown.
