Walker water heated centrifuges incoroporate a very sound and simple principle. The wasted energy in the form of hot water from the vehicle's cooling system is circulated through a water tight section in the base of the machine. The heat is absorbed by the aluminum casting and in a very short time all parts of the unit are hot. The only electrical energy needed is that used to swing the head and tubes during the centrifuging period. There are four short cone preheater pockets inside the centrifuge. The short cone head and two short cone shields are included in the centrifuge. This unit will meet the requirements of the API MPMS Chapter 10.4 "Determination of Water and Sediment in Crude Oil by the Centrifuge Method (Field Procedure)." For Pear Shaped Tube units, please see Part Numbers 18011 and 18016 below.
