If you run an industrial plant, you may be looking for more efficient solutions to recycling or reusing the lubricants used in your industrial machinery. Doing so will help your plant save thousands on these lubricants. If you have not already heard about a tramp oil separator, the following will help you become familiar with this piece of equipment and how tramp oil separator can benefit your industrial plant.
What It Is
A tramp oil separator collects lubricating fluids, separates them, filters them, and then sends the “cleaned” fluids back up into the machinery. The recycled fluids are then reused to continue lubricating the machinery to keep it running. This piece of equipment can continue to recycle the fluids until there is no fluid left that can effectively be filtered and reused. Then fresh fluids should be added to your machinery.
How It Benefits Your Industry
Almost every single industrial plant that utilizes lubricating fluids and oils can use a tramp oil separator. This piece of equipment does not take up much space, and it pays for itself over time. What you spend in purchasing just one separator helps you save that much money in lubricating fluid in six months to a year. Additionally, you can make the claim that your industry is practicing “green” habits to save the environment, something that is very popular with consumers right now. Each machine that requires a separator should have its own, although it is possible to run oil from two machines through the same separator.
