Oil Water Separator Coalescing Filter
The coalescing separators employ the gravity principle to undertake the oil water separation exercise.
Oil water separator coalescing filter. There are two types of coalescers. Watch an overview video on our ocs. Our ocs models range from 10 gpm to 5 000 gpm. A stream of fluid to be separated e g a.
The concept of a basic gravity oil water separator is simply a. Common types include the gas coalescer oil coalescer fuel coalescer and condensate coalescer which can be used for water gas gas oil and fuel gas separation. If you want to give a boost to the coalescing performance you will need to insert an additional coalesce filter. The coalescer also.
Separators for oil removal. Watermark offers 19 progressive sizes of oil coalescing separator models. Oil having a lower specific gravity than. Models ows 20 ows 50.
Tank vessel that stalls the flow rate to permit gravity to separate oil from water. Operating in reverse to an emulsifier. These filter elements fit in asco numatics modular two stage compressed air filters to remove water droplets oil and particles as small as 0. Through this process the oily water mixture enters the separator and the oil particles will coalesce or gather into larger spherical particles and then rise to the surface.
The droplets are too tiny to respond to the force of gravity within the short distance provided for within the filter unit. Oil water the oil in water or water in oil dispersion is fed under pressure to the coalescer bore. The separator cartridge is placed between the coalescing filter and the outlet to act like a screen which removes the tiny water droplets. Fine droplets merge in the coalescer element forming drops that collect in a single layer immediately upon emergence from the coalescer the oil and water layers leave the vessel via separateoutlets.
Coalescing separators utilize a filter element to trap contaminants in your compressed air supply as it moves through the filter. Virtually oil free water travels under an oil reservoir baffle over an adjustable weir and into a clean water effluent chamber. A coalescing filter or simply coalescer is a filtration system consisting of several baffle walls or screens. The water is then gravity discharged from this chamber.
How does a coalescer work. Choose from our selection of coalescing air filters including compressed air filters heavy duty compressed air filters and more. Small permanent coalescing filter. The compressed air is forced through a filter medium from the inside of the filter to the outside where the compressed air exits the separator.
Mechanical coalescers use filters or baffles to make droplets coalesce while electrostatic coalescers use dc or ac electric fields or combinations.
