FILTEK

Oil Centrifuge – FT Range

The Centrifuge has been utilised in the filtration of diesel lube oil systems for decades.

Its unique cleaning characteristics has ensured that it is proven technology both in the OEM and retrofit sectors. As a by-pass filter it can remove smaller contaminant that otherwise will pass through a conventional full-flow filter and continue to cause engine wear.

It has been applied with great success in the following market sectors:

• Truck & Bus

• Marine Engines

• Diesel Generators

Centrifugal oil cleaners installed on these diesel engines removes carbon soot, wear metal particles, dust/sang in lube oil down to 1 micron to increase life of lube oil and precision friction parts such as piston rings, liners, bimetal bearings, turbo charger bearing. This results in extended life of engine, time between engine overhauls, oil change intervals and complete elimination of bypass paper filters

• Construction & Mining Equipment

• Railway and Locomotive Engines

Many OEM Engine builders install a centrifuge as 100% fitment to their engines as a primary way of removing soot and wear particles from suspension within the oil. Soot enters the oil as a by-product of the combustion process and metal contaminants as a product of wear. A Filtek Centrifugal Oil Filter can compliment your existing full flow filter and provide super filtration down to sub micron particles.

Industrial Fluids – CK Range

Filtek are the leaders in investigating the use of self-propelled centrifugal filters within the industrial sector. We have enjoyed much success for several years by installing the CK range in the following industrial sectors

• Machine Tool Application
Honing Reaming Grinding

Centrifugal filtration system is capable in removing sub-micron size ferrous and non-ferrous contamination (like grinding wheel dust) ensuring clean coolant for improved finish on machined component. It shows wonderful results for Honing, CNC Grinding, Reamming applications. Use of Centrifugal Filtration System eliminates costly paper band filters and enhances tool life.

• Quenching

Contamination in quenching oil such as metal scales, dust, and carbon soot is removed by Centrifugal Filtration System to ensure that the quenching oil is maintained at required temperature correct heat transfer, resulting in specified component hardness, with improved surface finish.

• Wire Drawing

In cable manufacturing industry, Centrifugal Filtration System, installed on the coolant tank, ensures removal of metal dust/ powder resulting in improved finish of wire, reduction in wire breakage, recovery of costly wire material, increased die life and complete elimination of expensive paper band filter.

• Furnace Oil
• Bio Diesel
• Transmission and Hydraulic Oils
