Abstract

A separation assembly comprises a housing and a bearing plate assembly. The housing contains a turbine assembly and a rotor portion and defines a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The bearing plate assembly is adjustably attachable to the housing and defines a drive jet that directs fluid from the fluid inlet to the turbine assembly. The bearing plate assembly is mountable to the housing in multiple different orientations such that the relative position of the fluid inlet of the housing and the drive jet of the bearing plate assembly is adjustable.
