Eriez offers a complete line of equipment to remove tramp oils from your metalworking fluids.
Removing tramp oils, any oil that leaks from a machine tool into the metalworking fluid, should be a high priority for all metalworking plants. Tramp oils cause a variety of problems with the metalworking fluids such as:
Removing tramp oils from your fluids will improve all aspects of your metalworking fluids.
The Eriez Portable Tramp Oil separator, including a high speed, manually cleaned, disc bowl centrifuge, removes both free and emulsified tramp oils to 0.5% or less and particulate matter to 5 microns nominal in one pass on any stable coolant or cleaner.
This compact and portable unit, completely assembled on wheels, is designed to extract fluid from both small, individual machine sumps as well as larger central systems. The unit can process flow rates of 1-4 gpm (4-16 lpm) depending on fluid type and condition.
Key Features:
Eriez offers three low cost coalescers that process machine tool fluids removing tramp oils and fines and returining clean, reusable coolant. These units pump dirty fluid into a tank designed with baffles, weirs and media plate packs (portable coalescers) that separate the tramp oils from the fluid quickly and easily. The oil-free fluid is discharged back to the sump. Media packs are easily removed for cleaning and never need to be replaced.
This unit is designed for any size plant but especially for ones with multiple machine tools, having large central filtration systems, or aqueous parts washers. It offers simple, effective, low cost tramp oil removal.
The Eriez Portable coalescer consists of a self-priming dirty feed pump coupled to a floating skimming device that is placed in the sump. The dirty fluid is pumped into the coalesce tank where it comes in contact with two coalescing media plate packs that cause the tramp oils to separate from the fluid quickly and easily.
The oil free fluid is discharged back to the sump while the separated tramp oils are discharged out a separate port to a waste container.
Key features:
This unit consists of a 115-volt electric submersible pump couples to an adjustable skimming device which, when installed properly, rests in the sump and collects oil from the surface. The pump delivers skimmed tramp oil and coolant to the coalescer settling tank. The settling tank consists of a 15-gallon polyethylene drum, an inner oil diversion baffle, an oil discharge spigot, and a clean coolant discharge hose. Clean coolant gravity flows from the settling tank through the discharge hose and back to the sump.
Eriez’ Surface Oil Belt Skimmers feature an oleophilic (oil attracting) belt that hangs into the sump where it removes free-floating tramp oils. Two models and four belt options provide different rates and levels of oil separation.
The oil skimmer is designed for use on large machine tools with tanks deeper than two feet experiencing oil contamination in the range of one to two gallons of oil per hour.
Features:
The Oil Skimmer Jr. is designed for machine tools with fairly shallow tanks experiencing oil contamination in the range of one to two quarts of oil per hour.
