Resource efficient solution

As one of our most resource-efficient solutions, our GEA plug & win i separator skid carries the GEA Add Better label.* The high-efficiency motor transfers energy directly to the bowl without the use of belts and clutches. This reduces the energy consumption of the GEA plug & win i by up to 10% compared to the predecessor model. 
The GEA plug & win i has also service intervals extended by 100% and a noise level reduced to below 76 dB(A) during operation.

No oxygen pick-up

The patented GEA twin hydrohermetic sealing on GEA’s beer centrifuges completely seals the product from the atmosphere, eliminating numerous problems for the brewer. Oxygen is safely kept away from the beer, simply with water and CO₂ used in a wear-free sealing system on the top of the bowl. The beer is fed gently into the bowl via the hydrohermetic feed system

Safe inline carbonation as an option

 
Plug and win craft skid with inline carbonation
The plug & win i centrifuge skid offers an optional carbonation extension, eliminating the need for a separate unit and tank. Inline carbonation provides exceptionally precise control that ensures consistency across batches, no matter the size of the brewery. Packaging is possible shortly after inline carbonation and separation.
