ELGI Oil Separator

Air oil separator working principle

The big oil content is easy to remove via the air oil separatpr. But the tiny oil content must be purified from the Nano-grade fiber glass materials. Thus, selecting the suitable filber glass's diameter and thickness is necessary. In this case, the Nano-grade fiber media can settle the oil mist in top efficiency through blocking, colliding, diffusing and collecting operation. Then, small oil dew quickly assemble to big oil drop. The oil drop pass through the filter layer pushed by the pneumatic and gravity first, and then gather at the bottom of the filter element, finally return to lubrication system from the oil return tube port at the bottom bowl of the filter.
