Coolant Cleaning Station (CCS)
Central coolant recycling station capable of treating 500 litres of used metalworking fluid every 3 to 4 hours.
Central coolant recycling station capable of treating 500 litres of used metalworking fluid every 3 to 4 hours.
Coolant from the workshop is collected in the CCS used coolant tank as sumps are emptied, or as a result of swarf handling / briquetting.
Used coolant passes through a bag filter (removing large particles), then into a tank filled with coalescing media (removing tramp oil) , then into the CCS process tank.
Compressed air and traces of ozone gas are then passed through the coolant via ceramic diffusers. The resultant micro bubbles act as a micro flocculant; creating flocs of tramp oil, organic matter, and other particles, which float to the top of the fluid. These undesirable elements are then skimmed, returned to the coalescing tank, and then removed to the waste tank; helping to control bacteria levels and prevent bio-film formation.
Recycled coolant is transferred through 2 x CARDEV SDFC-P depth filter elements, leaving the coolant ultra clean and in the CCS Recycled coolant tank, ready for use. This process will continue automatically under control of the PLC, assuming there is space in the recycled coolant tank and used coolant ready to recycle. Each 500 litre batch takes 4 hours to process.
The CCS can be connected to a distribution pipework system as well as supplying coolant locally via a dispensing hose and gun. By integrating a SmartMix coolant mixing station, the CCS can become the sole source of coolant in the workshop; the SmartMix will only mix new soluble product when there is not sufficient recycled coolant to meet demand.
Read Case Study”We are recovering and recycling in excess of 10,000 litres of coolant per week, which in turn is reducing our consumption of concentrate by 500 litres a week!
Particles / fines removed from the coolant and the bottom of the sump via bag filter
Coolant Mixing Stations capable of delivering via distribution pipework systems or locally via dispensing gun. Fast delivery, accurate mixing.
Portable transfer unit for draining / filling sumps, as well as removing particle contamination without downtime.
