- Description:
- A centrifugal oil purifier, a filter, and automatic electric heater, and meter, pumps, gauges, pipes, and necessary appurtenances are mounted on a simple truck for use in various parts of the plant. The unit is designed to handle lubricating, governor, and insulating oils. Operating on insulating oil at about 90 degrees, the centrifuge is guaranteed to reduce moisture from 1/10 percent to 1/1000 percent in 1200 gallons of oil per hour, and to raise its dielectric strength to at least 30,000 volts. The filter, designed to remove carbon and fine particles that pass the centrifuge, take standard 12 inch filter papers.
