Overview
The Alfa Laval WHPX 513 Centrifuge is a self-cleaning disc-stack centrifuge built for the three-phase separation of mixed fluids and sludge.
With a 15 HP motor, the WHPX 513 has a published marine-diesel application capacity of 16,400 L/h (72.21 US GPM) at 13 cSt and a centrifugation temperature of 40 °C.
Dolphin Centrifuge is the independent specialist in Alfa Laval centrifuges, with remanufactured machines, turnkey systems, parts, and service built on 40+ years of Alfa Laval experience. Dolphin packages this machine as the DMPX-070 module, a Dolphin system built around a remanufactured Alfa Laval WHPX 513. Dolphin is an independent remanufacturer and is not affiliated with Alfa Laval.

The source cell for cross-head detergent lube oil lists its endpoints as 8,100-7,400 L/h; the table above normalizes them to ascending order while the machine-readable record preserves the original cell text. US GPM values are derived from L/h using L/h ÷ 227.124707 and rounded to two decimals. See the technical data methodology or the WHPX 513 machine-readable record.
