Filtration System Boosts Oil Lifetime

SKF's oil filtration system, which removes nano-sized impurities, is now available in compact form.

RecondOil Box is a smaller version of SKF's industrial scale DST systems, which have previously been applied in large applications in metalworking and quenching. The smaller system is suitable for a broader range of industries and applications, including general manufacturing, metal production, metal processing and energy production.

"While conventional filters typically only remove particles in the micron range, the RecondOil Box features Double Separation Technology (DST), which can remove particles down to nano-size from oil," said a company spokesperson. "It acts as a mechanical `kidney' in a machine's oil circulation system, where it regenerates the oil by progressively removing contaminants, and then returning the oil back into circulation. As the oil is in a closed loop, it is kept at a highly clean state continuously. By keeping the oil continuously clean, RecondOil Box can significantly extend oil change intervals."

The nano-clean oil can also improve machine performance across a range of applications. As well as filtering out impurities, RecondOil Box removes free, emulsified and bound water. It also prevents premature oil degradation by removing oxidation products and soluble and insoluble varnish.
