Oil is the heart of most manufacturing equipments. This oil needs to be kept in good condition free from the contamination of solid particles. Maintaining the oil in healthy condition is something that is often overlooked but will prevent costly downtime and the replacements of pumps, valves, cylinders and wear parts of the machineries.
Principle of Operation
Oil is pumped into the centrifuge and directed into a hollow spindle from where it is pressed through a cross-hole into the rotor of centrifuge. When rotor is full of oil, the resulting pressure forces it out through two tangential and opposite nozzles in the bottom of rotor. This causes the rotor to rotate at higher speed. The centrifugal force in the rotor causes the dirt particles present accelerate radially and deposit on the internal wall of the rotor. In the course of operation these deposits form a thick cake. Applied centrifugal force is 2000 times more than the gravity force due to which particles below 1 micron can be captured in centrifuge filter. Analysis of contaminant collected in the rotor shows that maximum number of particles are in the range of 0.25 to 2 micron. Full flow filters or any cartridge filter never capture these fine particles and they cause wear and tear to the frictional parts of machines and equipments where oil film thickness is in the range of 0.5 to 1 micron.
