CHALLENGE
THEM.
Meeting and mastering a challenge requires experience, skill
and above all the courage to try something new.
Big wave surfers never tire of meeting new challenges and
regularly break records mastering them.
The record-breaking extreme athletes provided our engineers
with the inspiration to push the limits of product development.
The most recent result is the GEA marine Separator.
4 Future proof separator technology
FUTURE ON
BOARD. TODAY.
Maritime separation technology that
sets new standards.
Nowadays, those involved in the commercial shipping, liner
and cruise businesses face a growing number of complex
and demanding challenges. One of these is the processing
of heavy fuel oil and lubricating oil. For years separators have
helped owners and yards meet this challenge.
But to future proof separator technology it was necessary to
completely rethink marine separators and set new standards in
terms of ease of maintenance, personnel deployment, energy
efficiency, operating costs and environmental protection
– through the use of ultra-low sulphur oil for example. The
result is a revolutionary solution that offers integrated direct
drive, compact design, more performance per square meter of
footprint, innovative features and an extremely simple service
concept: Pushing the limits.

RESOURCE-EFFICIENT
SOLUTION
As one of our most resource-efficient solutions, our
GEA marine Separator carries the Add Better label.*
The high efficiency motor of the GEA marine Separator trans-
fers the energy directly to the bowl without the use of belts
and clutches.
This reduces the energy consumption by 9% compared to
the predecessor model, resulting in energy savings of up to
30,000 kWh per vessel per year.
*The Add Better label relates to the serial product GEA marine Separator, released in September 2018.
The comparison refers to its predecessor model, the GEA OSE Separator.

SEVEN SEAS.
ONE REVOLUTIONARY
SERVICE CONCEPT.
Ultra-simple servicing thanks to quick
and easy drive replacement.
To make your life as easy as 1-2-3, the latest GEA generation process that takes no time at all. In addition to time savings,
of separators is designed with simplicity in mind. That’s why it the new technology radically extends services intervals and
is no longer necessary to remove and replace individual parts makes cleaning the separator a breeze. Exchange drive units
when doing scheduled drive maintenance. Instead, all you are overhauled to OEM standards and do away with the need
need to do is order an exchange drive and swap the unit – a to carry replacement parts on board.
EASY as Easy to swap drives
Drive maintenance on the latest generation of GEA marine
1-2-3 separators could not be easier. To exchange the drive unit, it‘s
just three simple steps: lift the hood (1), remove the bowl (2),
exchange the drive unit (3) and you’re done!
RUNS Double the running time
The integrated direct drive extends the standard 8,000-hour
16,000 hrs
service interval for conventional separators to 16,000 hours
for the GEA marine Separator. With servicing now taking 30
minutes to one hour every two years compared to six to eight
hours every year previously, the time savings are also consi-
derable.
CLEAN in just Fast cleaning
GEA EffiClean cleans the separator’s disks packs in only 20
20 min
minutes. Taking place inside the running machine, it also
reduces the workload by up to 95 percent compared to
manual cleaning.
SHIPPING within General overhauls certified to OEM standards
Every two years we overhaul the integrated direct drive
24 hrs
in our factory. Overhauled units are like new – something
we document and certify – and leave our warehouse within
24 hours of ordering.

YOU ARE WITH
THE GEA MARINE
SEPARATOR.
With the new generation of separators,
tomorrow’s intelligent shipping is
already on board.
The future of shipping is digital. In accordance with the needs
of big data, demand for more transparent processing and real-
time operating data is increasing. As part of this, equipment
needs to be interfaced with the ship’s management system
and numerous processes controlled, visualized and analyzed
within the network.
Making it easy to meet these maritime challenges, our sepa-
rators are digital ready across a range of functionalities
including preventive maintenance, proactive optimization, and
continuous unmanned machine room operation.
GEA IO Control
Pushing a button on the touch-sensitive interface is all that
is required to control the separator or select features such as
maximum yield, performance, minimal energy consumption or
additives. Remote access via a tablet or PC is also available
as an option.
Condition monitoring
The intelligent condition monitoring system collects data and
provides useful analyses, helpful reports as well as reliable
recommendations for optimal system operation.
OPC UA field bus ready
The latest industrial communication protocol OPC specifi-
cation provides the basis for transporting machine data and
making it machine-readable.

14 Proven technologies
NEXT GENERATION.
PROVEN STANDARDS.
Innovative technologies are good –
and with proven standard functions
they make our separators even better.
Hot separation add-on
Where high cat fine levels are an issue, the robust design of
our separators makes it possible to increase the separation
temperature to 110° C. The advantage is reduced viscosity
and significantly increased separation efficiency.
By increasing the separation temperature, the modular
technology option increases viscosity and reduces abra-
sion caused by cat fines, protecting the main engine and
other key components. GEA is the only manufacturer on
the market to offer this technology.
GEA unitrolplus
The automatic monitoring and control system keeps heavily
contaminated fuels and lubricating oils under control at all
times, automates the processes and ensures maximum ope-
rational safety – even in unmanned machine rooms.
OPC UA field bus ready
The latest industrial communication protocol OPC specifi-
cation provides the basis for transporting machine data and
making it machine-readable.
