An oil purification system is a process or equipment used to clean and restore the quality of oils, such as transformer oil, hydraulic oil, lubricating oil, and turbine oil, by removing contaminants. These contaminants may include moisture, gases, solid particles, sludge, acids, and oxidation byproducts that degrade the oil's properties. Oil purification helps maintain the efficiency, performance, and longevity of the equipment in which the oil is used.
- These units remove solid particles and sludge from the oil using filters with different micron ratings. They help eliminate dirt, metal particles, and other solid impurities.
- Degassing removes dissolved gases and air from the oil. In systems like transformer oil purification, removing gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide is critical to maintaining the oil's dielectric strength and preventing oxidation.
- These units remove moisture from the oil. Water is a significant contaminant that can degrade oil's insulating and lubricating properties, especially in systems like transformers and hydraulic equipment.
- The system may heat the oil to reduce its viscosity, making it easier to remove contaminants. Heating also helps in processes like vacuum dehydration and degassing.
- Vacuum pumps create a low-pressure environment to facilitate the removal of gases and moisture. The vacuum system enhances the degassing and dehydration process by reducing the boiling point of water and other volatile substances.
- In some purification systems, centrifugal separation is used to remove water and heavier contaminants by using centrifugal force.
- Adsorption materials, such as activated alumina or silica gel, can be used to remove specific contaminants, like acids or dissolved moisture.
- Used to remove moisture, gases, and particles from insulating oil to maintain its dielectric properties and extend the life of transformers.
2. Hydraulic and Lubricating Oil Purification Systems
- Designed to purify oils used in hydraulic systems, engines, and industrial machinery by removing solid contaminants, water, and sludge.
- Specifically used for turbine oils to remove water, particles, and varnish to prevent issues such as oil foaming, poor lubrication, and component wear.
- Improves Oil Quality: Restores the oil's original properties, such as viscosity, dielectric strength, and lubrication.
- Extends Equipment Life: Reduces wear and tear on machinery by maintaining the oil in good condition.
- Cost-Effective Maintenance: Reduces the need for frequent oil changes and expensive repairs.
- Enhances Equipment Efficiency: Keeps the system running smoothly, avoiding overheating, loss of efficiency, and operational breakdowns.
- Reduces Environmental Impact: Minimizes the need for new oil, thereby reducing waste and environmental contamination.
Oil purification systems play a vital role in the maintenance of industrial and electrical equipment by ensuring that the oil remains clean, efficient, and effective over time.
