Effects of water contaminationWater is ranked as one of the most frequently occurring kind of contamination and as a destructive foreign matter in second place, right after particulate contamination. Some of the problems and damages, water contamination can cause, are:
Fluid destruction Exhaustion of additives Reduction of lubrication characteristics of the liquid Oil oxidation Internal corrosion Increased conductivity
Operating principleThe deployed procedure of vacuum evaporation with inert gas is the most effective method of dehydration principles for this application. This method combines high water separating rates with effi cient energy use for a large variety of application possibilities. Using dry air as inert gas, enables the dehydration process to achieve water levels underneath the saturation level of the processed fl uid at any given operating temperature. In contrast to the standard vacuum evaporation process, which can only reach equilibrium between the fl uid and the surrounding water vapor.

Structure of the IFPM/IFPS systems
The fl uid to be purifi ed is drawn out of a reservoir by a vacuum generated by the vacuum pump. It then enters a tank with a heater and is being heated up to the temperature set in the operation unit. A certain amount of fl uid is drawn through a two-port solenoid valve into the vacuum chamber, where it diffuses over dispersal material, which enlarges the surface of the fl uid. Free and dissolved water vaporises in the chamber due to the lower evaporation point caused by the vacuum. Air from the surrounding area is led into the vacuum chamber through an air fi lter and a throttle valve. The air which enters approximately in the middle of the chamber, moves upward to the fl ow of the fl uid. Water and gas join the upward airfl ow and enter the vacuum pump after having left the vacuum chamber. At this point, the air and the water vapour are either condensed and emitted to the atmosphere or emitted immediately.

The technology behind INTERNORMEN Purifi er Systems
The compact IFPM/IFPS systems have been constructed as fully automated, PLC controlled units applicable even in tight areas. The implemented water sensor WSPS 05 in connection with the display unit WFD 01 allows a permanent monitoring of the water level in the purifi ed fl uid and the electronic ∆p sensor VS1 provides the optimal use and maintenance scheduling of the included particle removal fi lter element. The desiccant air breather dries up the inert gas and increases therefore the effi ciency of the purifi er even in high humidity environments.
Factors infl uencing the Purifi er effi ciency
All types also available as explosion-proof versions
The processing time to reach the desired level of water in the operating fl uid mainly depends on the type of fl uid used. Other factors, infl uencing the speed of the dehydrationprocess are:
* At liquid viscosity of 150 SUS (32 mm²/s)** Operating vacuum adapted to specifi c applications *** Water content 6% at 105 F (40°C) and 150 SUS (32 mm²/s)
