SEPARATION TECHNOLOGY

Engineered to overcome the shortfalls of other designs

Why Multi-Stage? Separation is done best in progressive stages. When compared to a 2-stage collector, the first filter efficiency must be high to protect the final filter. The potential of the first stage filter plugging is high. Alternatively, if the first filter efficiency is low, the final filter tends to plug.

Why Depth Loading or Fibre Bed Filters? The air travels through a depth or bed of filter media up to 1 inch thick. The risk of plugging is low, yet efficiency is high. In a pleated face loading filter, separation is on the surface of a very thin layer of filter media, resulting to the pores plugging very quickly in oil mist eliminators.

Why Cross Flow Design? An oil mist separator provides optimum separation and oil drainage. In up-flow, the oil mist drip directly into the air flow and the filter below.

1st and 2nd stage:

The 1st stage: Innovative mechanical elements separate 90 – 95% of the mist and solids. The fluid drains quickly, reducing evaporation and odours. No other product is this effective and uses no consumables.

The 2nd stage: The agglomerator filter is a unique depth loading oil mist filter, layers of stainless steel wire mesh weaved with oil attracting fibres. It is high efficiency as the air travels through a bed of coarse and fine fibres at low velocity. Channels between each layer provide exceptional fluid drainage. The media is very durable, lasting 10 – 15 years in most oil mist separator applications. Can be power washed.

3rd and 4th stage:

The 3rd stage: Fibre bed filters have a high surface area, the technology used today by premium mist collectors. High efficiency, excellent drainage, long life. Coolant or oil filters has a typical life of 1 -3 years.

Final 4th stage: HEPA filter captures sub-micron mist smoke, and bacteria. Our standard HEPA filter is 95% efficient at 0.3 microns. A higher efficiency filter rated 99.97% at 0.3 microns is optional. Our HEPA filters are made exclusively for oil mist with heavy-duty micro-glass media in the oil mist separator. No comparable product holds as much oil or lasts as long. The typical life of our oil mist separator is 2 – 4 years.

Mist collection has never been more affordable!
