(EN) Oil mist separators: Efficient extraction and cleaning of aerosols from machine tools

Electrostatic oil mist separators for air purification in machine tools in mechanical engineering with X-CYCLONE technology: Setting the benchmark in mechanical engineering! Our new video explains the operation of electrostatic oil mist separators. This technology plays a crucial role in mechanical engineering, especially in medical technology and the Swiss watch industry. Our air cleaners ensure efficient operation of machining tools. In the video, we demonstrate how these electrostatic air cleaners work and explain how our electrostatic oil mist separators create a clean working environment.

Why electrostatics? Electrostatic oil mist separators are ideal for machining tools that use non-water-soluble cooling and lubricating fluids such as pure oil. This technology is particularly useful in medical and watchmaking industries where pure oil is commonly used. Our separators are also highly effective in processing high-alloy materials like titanium and magnesium.

Operation of electrostatic oil mist separators - An electrostatic X-CYCLONE oil mist separator consists of several filtering stages:

1. Agglomerator: A wire mesh that agglomerates aerosols into larger droplets.

2. X-CYCLONE separator: A mechanical filter that captures large particles and acts as a flame arrestor.

3. Electrostatic filters: These filters remove the finest particles through ionization and high voltage.

This combination ensures highest efficiency in oil mist separation.

Safety and efficiency - Our electrostatic separators offer not only high efficiency but also safety advantages. They prevent flame propagation and pass tests for explosion behavior. Moreover, they ensure clean air in production halls by reliably filtering out even the smallest aerosols.

Flexibility and retrofitting - Our X-CYCLONE electrostatics are known for their flexibility. They can easily expand and retrofit machines from pure mechanical filters to electrostatic separators and vice versa. This allows contract manufacturers to adapt their machines to changing requirements without replacing the entire air purification system.
