Two inexpensive solutions for individual machines are Eriez’ drum top sump cleaner and the reversible liquid vacuum. Both drum top units draw up tramp oils, used oil and waste coolants quickly and efficiently.

Eriez’ drum top sump cleaner is a vacuum unit that converts an open-top drum into a portable machine tool sump cleaner. In addition to fluids, this powerful vacuum removes chips and fines and is an economical alternative to a dedicated sump cleaner. The compact reversible liquid vacuum connects to a closed-head drum and is used to remove lube or hydraulic oils from reservoirs as well as many other fluid handling applications.

For machine shops that work predominantly withferrousmetals,Eriez’MagneticChipConveyorsandMagneticCoolantCleanersprovide continuous removal of chips and swarf. This magnetic equipment can be submersed in the sump providing removal of large amounts of ferrous materials prior to filtering.

The reversible liquid vacuum is big enough for tough jobs, yet small enough to fit in your hand.

Magnetic Coolant CleanersRadial-design magnetic circuits extract ferrous particles from the coolant to help meet tolerances and improve surface finish in grinding and metal-cutting operations. Smooth-facedandextended-pole models extend life of coolant, cutting tools, grinding wheels and pumps.

Magnetic ConveyorsEriez’ Tuf-Trac™ conveyors sit submersed in the sump and continuously extract ferrous chips. They’re supplied with magnets on 12-inchcenters,supportedbytwinroller chains that are powered by a shaft-mounted motor reducer. The roller chain rides on whisper-quiet Tuf-Trac engineered polymer guide track that requires no external lubrication. Conveyorsfeatureheavy-dutyconstructionfor years of trouble-free operation.

Portable Tramp Oil Separators remove even the peskiest tramp oils and can be easily moved on its mobile platform

Removing Tramp Oil

Reducing tramp oil is a high priority for all metalworking shops. Excess tramp oil leads to:

• Smoke,mist,andbacterialinfestation of the metalworking fluids

• Surfacefinishimperfections

• Reducedtoollifeanddimensional tolerance control

• Skinirritationssuchasdermatitis

Partiallyemulsifiedtrampoilsincoolantsarethe most dangerous and difficult to remove. Removing this type of oil requires an Eriez high-speed centrifuge which delivers exceptionally clean fluid with tramp oil levels below 0.5% and metallic solids in the 2 to 5 micron range.

Portable Tramp Oil Separator This mobile centrifuge provides small metalworking plants with true, high-speed centrifugation. Eriez’ PortableTrampOilSeparatorrecyclesfluidsatthe sump by placing both the suction and return hoses directly into the machine sump, removing free and emulsified tramp oils from water miscible coolants and aqueous cleaners. This enables uninterrupted machine tool operation.

Eriez integrates larger, manually cleaned high-speedcentrifugesintoitsCRSFluidRecyclingSystems.Thesesystemsare complete fully palletized packages used in conjunctionwithSumpCleanersandoften with fluid distribution systems.

Self-Cleaning Centrifuges Typically, self-cleaning centrifuges are designed for central fluid systems. They pull the fluid, remove tramp oils and small fines, and return cleaned fluid to the central system. This type of centrifuge package can be designed to handle any combination of central systems and individual machine tool recycling.

Self-cleaning high-speed disc bowl centrifuges keep central systems running clean and tramp oil free

Surface Oil SkimmersTheDeluxeSurfaceTramp OilBeltSkimmerfeatures an oleophilic belt and a unique method of stripping the separated oil from both sides of the belt without contact with a stationary scraper. This provides a great combination of performance and long belt life.

TheStandardSurfaceTrampOilBeltSkimmerusesa similar “oil loving” belt, but uses a more compact scraper blade to strip the separated oil from the belt. This low maintenance item can be equipped with a timer so that the unit runs only when the machine is idle and the tramp oils have risen to the surface.

The high-speed disc bowl centrifuges are available with either a manual clean, solid-wall bowl or an automatic self-desludging two-part bowl design. The automatic version is preferred in high solids applications and on central system equipment.

Portable Coalescer Designed for plants with multiple machines needing a simple, effective, low-cost tramp oil separator that can be moved from machine to machine.Eriez’PortableCoalescerusesan oleophilic (oil attracting) coalescing plate pack media to remove oils effortlessly and efficiently. The unit is equipped with a standard electric submersible pump, but can be upgraded with an optional air pump or a heavy-duty electric pump for deeper sumps. This portable coalescer is also effective with high temperature fluids such as cleaners.Consultthefactoryforlargerflow rate systems.

Eriez ProportionerWhengreateraccuracyandautomatic mixing are required, consider the Eriez Proportioner.Thisautomatic unit is a water-driven, positive displacement proportioner dispensing coolant on demand at the desired concentration. The average flow rate is5GPMwithmixingrangesfrom1%to 25%.Specialunitsarealsoavailablefor highly alkaline parts washing fluids.

TheEriezProportionerprovidesconsistent concentration at all times despite varying water pressures or fluid levels in supply containers. Because it is driven by the plant’s water supply pressure, it can also supply properly mixed fluid through overhead piping to machine tools without a booster pump.

Pure Water makes better coolantEriezadvocatestheuseofpurewater.Coolantperformance and longevity are optimized by the use of pure water.

Purewatersourcesincludedeionizationand reverse osmosis. Eriez can provide you with a complete reverse osmosis system. Reverse osmosis (RO) is a process that removes up to 98%ofdissolvedminerals,andvirtually100%ofcolloidalandsuspendedmatter.Comparedto other processes, it provides excellent quality water at a low cost and does not require acids or caustics for regeneration. RO systems are available from100tomorethan10,000gallonsperday.

Measurement ToolsFluid maintenance and concentration control programs must be checked on a regular basis. Eriez offers a number of different style refractometers to ensure accurate concentration.

The Refractometer is a simple yet rugged device withalarge,easy-to-readscaleavailablein0-10°Brixor0-32°Brixmodels.Thisportablemeterrequires no batteries and quickly determines the concentration level of:

• coolantsandcleaners

• heat-treatingfluids

• water-basedhydraulicfluids

• platingbaths

The temperature of certain fluids can affect the refractive index reading of the mix. In this case, an automatic temperature compensating refractometer is needed. Eriez’ temperature compensated Industrial Fluid Testers have large easy-to-read scales and are available intworanges:0-20°Brix,and0-30°Brix.

Eriez also offers an extremely accurate, hand-held, digital Refractometer with an easytoreadLCDreadoutwitha0-52°Brixrange.Properconcentrationcontrolincreases fluid performance and longevity.
