New LYNX 20 decanter centrifuge – for cost-effective drilling mud treatment

Posted: 05 May 2004

The launch of the Alfa Laval LYNX 20 provides the drilling mud treatment market with a cost-effective, reliable decanter centrifuge.

Increased capacity and improved wear protection make the LYNX 20 the best solution for the drilling business, and the standard by which all others are judged when it comes to performance. This specialist unit not only reduces mud bills drastically, but also makes it possible to increase the penetration rate considerably.

Alfa Laval is the world’s leading manufacturer of decanter centrifuges, and has therefore been able to achieve previously unheard of cost-effectiveness with the optimized design of this new unit. Alfa Laval’s modern manufacturing facilities are well known for their efficient production, and have now taken tried and tested decanter technology one step further.

Specially designed to work with virtually all kinds of drilling muds, the versatile LYNX 20 is optimized for use with the new water/synthetics-based mud types, in addition to conventional oil-based drilling fluids.

A number of optional modules make the LYNX 20 drilling mud decanter centrifuge ideal for use on drilling rigs. These include both fully automated modules and relatively simple manually operated modules that provide efficient solutions to virtually all solids control separation requirements.

Selected features and benefits:

  • Simple, compact and robust design
  • High efficiency in removing fine solids
  • Automatic, unattended operation
  • Low operating cost and easy maintenance
  • Reliability and long service life
  • Extremely versatile – can be used with all mud types.
