Above 90 PSI on centrifuges???

[Brad S.]

Anyone thats using a CF, does higher pressure, higher than 90 PSI, help out with filtration. I have a metal 3/8 brake line running from the pump to the CF, I think it could handle the pressure, and that way I could shut the bypass after its running.
I haven't checked with the maker of the CF yet, I thought I'd check you guys see what ya thought.

I run mine at 90 psi. If i bump it to 95 (max recommended my mfr) i dont notice a change in pitch. Probably wouldnt make much difference...

It depends on the manufacturer of your fuge. Pa bio maxes at 95psi
It all depends on the bearing your fuge has. Fuel at the proper viscosity at 90 psi has your fuge spinning 10k rpms.

Rotor can deform also,on my CF I samehow overtighten rotor(I took care usually)and now I have to put same ring.

I don't think you should run them over 90 psi long term. 90 psi is the max i run mine. I run the spinner II centirfuge. Go with what PA Biodiesel would tell you to do Joe is a really good guy and wont steer you wrong.
