The oil separator FRIESS Skimmtelligent Mini is used to separate tramp oil and coolant. The Skimmtelligent mini is designed for applications where the tramp oil does not float on the surface of the coolant but is mixed with the coolant.
Oil separator Skimmtelligent mini works as bypass system. A positive displacement pump pumps the coolant into the oil separator Skimmtelligent mini. A strainer which is mounted before the pump removes bigger particles or chips. A magnetic filter which is available as option removes ferritic particles down to 1 µm from the coolant. The coolant flows into the separator tank of the oil separator Skimmtelligent mini. The coolant mixed with tramp oil flows through parallel plates which work as coalescer. Even the very low lift of the small droplets is enough to drive the oil droplets to the lower side of the next parallel plate. Many small oil droplets will form few big oil drops. The higher lift of the bigger oil drops drives the oil towards the surface of the liquid. The oil layer flows over an adjustable baffle into a decanter tank. The concentrated oil flows over a second baffle into the oil collecting tank.
ADVANTAGES:
works independent of production
removes smallest volume of tramp oil
longer lifetime for coolant
less cost for buying new coolant and
less cost for waste disposal
robust stainless steel construction
except pump no moving parts
The Friess Skimmtelligent Mini works independently of production and removes even the smallest amounts of tramp oil.
Increase the service life for emulsions and washing water in a striking way with our process.
