Key Features

Advanced Centrifugal Separation

• Self-cleaning disc-type bowl: Efficiently separates water, solids, and contaminants from oil, ensuring high-quality output.

• Fuel-optimized design: Particularly suited for fuel oils with densities up to ~0.991 g/ml and lubricants, making it ideal for marine fuel purification tasks.

• Pressure discharge: Clean oil is discharged under pressure using centripetal pumps for seamless integration back into system circuits.

Robust Construction

• Frame: Grey cast iron for mechanical strength.

• Hood: Silumin for long-lasting protection.

• Main bowl parts: High-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance.

• Standard drive: 3-phase AC motor designed for continuous duty with reliable belt/centrifugal clutch power transfer.

• IP55 protection: Suitable for harsh marine and industrial environments.

Operational Control & Monitoring

• Flexible feed and discharge lines with pressure gauges and transmitters for real-time monitoring.

• Optional equipment available (at extra cost) such as motor control units, automatic operation control, pre-heaters, shut-off valves, and more, to tailor performance to specific system needs.

Typical Applications

Marine Department

• Fuel Oil Purification: Removes water and contaminants from marine fuels before combustion, improving engine performance and reducing wear.

• Lube Oil Treatment: Ensures high-quality lubricants for main and auxiliary engines, gearboxes, and turbines.

• Ideal for continuous duty in marine engine rooms and offshore platforms where sustained high performance is critical.

Industrial Sector

• Power Generation: Purifies fuel oils and lubricants for diesel generators and turbines.
