Compact Oil Mist Solution with Cyclonic Technology



Royal Products' Filtermist Ultra is a portable solution for oil mist and smoke that combines Filtermist with cyclonic technology to remove additional pollutants. The system is top-mounted on a mobile cart with securely locking casters. Its design features a small footprint with no need for additional stands or brackets.

"Filtermist Ultra fits conveniently behind the chip conveyor on most machines," said Royal Products Vice President of Marketing Tom Sheridan. "It is ideal for retrofitting an existing production line or incorporating into a new one. And Filtermist Ultra works efficiently for nearly every application, including turning, milling, grinding and cast iron machining."

The internal cyclone particulate removal is intended to improve particle separation so clean air can be exhausted back to the factory floor, lowering the expense of heating and cooling the facility. Filtermist Ultra can operate continuously because it self-drains back to the machine tool coolant sump. This process also reduces coolant costs by recycling it rather than venting it to the atmosphere.

Filtermist Ultra exceeds current and proposed OSHA and NIOSH safety regulations. "Removing oil mist reduces the risk of accidents caused by slippery residue," said a company spokesperson. "Inhaling oil mist is potentially dangerous to the lungs and larynx. The pollution may be harmful to skin as well. Oil mist deposits also create a fire hazard. By preventing oily residues, Filtermist Ultra reduces the time and cost of cleaning exposed surfaces. It also eliminates build-up that can interfere with equipment."

Filtermist Ultra is driven by Royal Products FX-1200, enabling it to handle a range of machine tool types and sizes. It can be used for machines with an internal volume greater than 60 cu. ft. The unit measures 18" by 20" and includes 20' of 6" diameter ducting.

An all-inclusive system, it can be ordered with one SKU. That includes the model FX-1200 Filtermist unit, mobile cart, integral cyclone, oil return hose, ducting, 6" diameter flange adapter and two 6" diameter ducting clamps. Other available products include a starter box kit with an optional low- or high-voltage motor starter, NEMA 12 box, input and output cables and a turn-lock connector. An optional after-filter is available for collecting dry smoke and very fine mist particles.
