Pegaso 1500
Efficiency and quality, for medium-sized
farms and third party contractors
Pegaso 1500 installation is an automatic continuous cycle system designed for the production of olive oil with an hourly capacity of approximately 1500 kg/h for farms and third-party processing activities.
This system is equipped with a Pegaso 1500 decanter, which does not require final separators, thanks to an innovative design of the screw and oil extraction system. The oil coming out from this decanter is clean and free of impurities, and there is no trace of oil in the waste water.

Decanter TBD series
The Pegaso 1500 decanter belongs to the new TBD (Twin Bowl Decanter) series. It is an innovative two-phase horizontal centrifuge that operates without the addition of mixing water. Thanks to a special design of the screw and the bowl, the oily mixture follows the entire length of the bowl; this increases the dwell of the olive paste inside the bowl, allowing to recover a greater quantity of high quality olive oil. The absolute innovation concerns the clarification process; the oily must enters a second low-speed bowl located in the center and follows the entire lenght of the bowl in the opposite direction; this completely eliminates mucilage and suspended solids, ensuring an olive oil of the highest quality.
Integrated crusher-kneading system
The new SFR/A thermo-conditioning crusher uses a knife crushing system with a vertical rotation axis. The cylindrical crushing chamber is equipped with a mechanical blade that conveys the paste coming out from the grid directly to the transfer mono-pump; this to prevent the stay of the paste inside the crusher. The user may decide to manage the crushing chamber as a "pre-kneader," keeping a quantity of paste inside it; this to begin the conditioning of the paste inside the crusher, increasing the efficiency of the GENESIS kneading system.
New dynamic filtering system
This system can be combined with the innovative technology of clarifying the product coming out from the decanter with the dynamic filter. This new device replaces the classic vertical axis separators. The dynamic filter works at a low rpm to prevent overheating and safeguard the oil temperature; it also works without addition or contact with water, so as not to alter the chemical properties of the oil and keep its quality. No masonry exhaust system is needed.

FAQ System Pegaso 1500
For what size of business is Pegaso 1500 designed?
Pegaso 1500 is an automatic continuous-cycle system dedicated to medium-sized farms and contract-processing operations, with a production capacity of about 1,500 kg/h of olives. It is the top model of the Pegaso series and is equipped with the TBD - Twin Bowl Decanter.
What are the technical specifications of the Pegaso 1500 decanter?
The Pegaso 1500 decanter has a production capacity of 1,500 kg/h, installed power of 11 kW, a bowl inner diameter of 300 mm and a bowl length of 1,300 mm. It belongs to the TBD series: it works in two phases without adding mixing water and needs no final separator, thanks to the patented oil-collection system.
What does working without final vertical-axis separators mean?
The Pegaso 1500 decanters are designed to produce clean oil directly at the outlet, without having to pass through a vertical centrifugal separator. This shortens the process, reduces processing times and costs, and lowers the heating of the product. The oil at the outlet is free of impurities.
Does Pegaso 1500 use the integrated GENESIS crushing-malaxing system?
Yes. Pegaso 1500 is equipped with the integrated GENESIS system: an SFR/A thermo-conditioning blade crusher with a vertical rotation axis and a cylindrical crushing chamber, and a modular GENESIS malaxer unit with 2 to 6 tanks. The system also allows the crushing chamber to be used as a pre-malaxer to condition the paste.
Can Pegaso 1500 be combined with the dynamic filter?
Yes. Pegaso 1500 can be combined with the dynamic filter to clarify the product leaving the decanter. The filter works at low speed (no overheating), without adding or coming into contact with water, and requires no masonry drains.
What are the process innovations of Pegaso 1500?
Pegaso 1500 incorporates three OMT innovations: two-phase processing without mixing water and without a final separator, the integrated GENESIS crushing-malaxing system (SFR/A crusher + modular malaxer), and the option of clarification via a dynamic filter. These innovations aim at an oil with a higher polyphenol content and a better keeping ability.
