EMMIE is the new solution for oil cleaning problems

Water or particles in oil cause most hydraulic system breakdowns.

Alfa Laval's new, compact mobile separator unit Emmie for industrial use cleans a range of commonly used oils, including hydraulic oils and lube oils in a single easy operation.

The separator removes 99% of particles in the 2-5 micron range while it also can remove virtually all free water, even at high initial water contents. The result is more production uptime as well as reduced wear and corrosion on the equipment serviced, the process is so efficient that the service life of the oil can be prolonged many, many times.

Emmie is designed for "plug and go" operation. The unit is plugged in to a 230 or 110 Volt power source, the hoses are connected to the oil tank and the unit is ready for operation. Dirty oil is pumped from the tank, cleaned and then recirculated. The module can be easily wheeled around between oil tanks, to serve many different production stations.

The system incorporates a screw pump, a pressure gauge and a built in electric heater, which heats the oil to reach optimum viscosity prior to purifying. Emmie can clean up to 170 litres of oil per hour. Two different bowls allow the unit to be used as either a purifier or a clarifier depending on the water content in the oil. 

Effective oil cleaning will provide:

• Improved reliability of equipment;
• Increased working life of oil;
• Reduced costs for replacement and disposal of oil and filters.
