Designed to regulate different separator processes automatically, the GEA marine Upgrade Kit comprises additional software and a sophisticated easy-to-install hardware kit. Adding considerably to the functionality of our marine separators, it makes them more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Four marine Guards help to save costs, ensure safe operation and an improved CO2 balance for marine vessels.
- FuelGuard
Saves 686 tons of fuel a year (for a fleet of 50 vessels with four separators each). - BowlGuard
Minimizes disposal costs with up to 50% less sludge. - EffiClean
Saves precious maintenance time, increases centrifuge reliability, availability and efficiency.

GEA marine FuelGuard - the automated way to reduce fuel loss
Fuel oil is a critical cost factor in the shipping industry. Marine separators play a significant role in onboard fuel treatment. Oil losses caused by the imprecise dosing of displacement water into the bowl are a downside of timer-controlled separation processes.
More precision for more economy
FuelGuard resolves this problem by exactly dosing displacement water into the bowl according to volume. This process is fully automatic, does not require an interface and leads to significantly reduced oil loss during emptying.
GEA marine BowlGuard - smart cleaning solution
Conventionally, oil separation takes place at pre-set intervals. The problem with timed ejection processes leads to increased sludge volume.
Maximum precision
BowlGuard solves this problem by monitoring the bowl in real time, checking solid content at regular intervals, and ejecting solid deposits. It does by collecting values, calculating the current filling volume of the bowl, and monitoring the degree of disk contamination before triggering the cleaning process as required. In this way, BowlGuard minimizes disposal costs.
