Method for separating transporting suction air from a transported, flowable medium, and separator for carrying out the method

摘要

To separate transporting suction air from a liquid/solid mixture in dental separators, the flowable medium separated from suction air is set in rotation and discharged through a rotating nonreturn valve into a normal pressure area. The nonreturn valve is acted upon in the closing direction by the underpressure of the suction air and forced open by the flowable medium to be applied, accelerated counter to the closing direction. The corotating nonreturn valve 10 is in this case formed by a nonreturn valve arrangement placed on the centrifuge container 4. IMAGE
