Oil mist separation – KE 3075

Before the raw cast components for camshaft production come out of the foundry and are processed further, they have to be extensively cleaned, polished and ground. Very high circumferential speeds are generated during the grinding of cast steel when the grinding wheels encounter hardened cast material during polishing. The resulting chips are removed under enormous heat generation, resulting in fine casting particles. To ensure high quality standards in production, the coolant nozzles for internally cooled tools and the machining oil used must be precisely arranged.

Challenge

The processing oil is atomized and evaporated. The smallest aerosol particles are distributed in the machining area of the machine, pushing their way through a small opening in the door to the employee‘s workplace and into the room air. Due to its composition, oil aerosol contains substances that can be harmful to human health and the environment. The aerosol mist, which reaches the KE 3075, consists mainly of particle sizes in the range < 10 µm.

Features

  • Price-sensitive variant for an extraction volume of 2,000 m³/h without control
  • Coalescer filter elements for the separation of raw gas concentrations up to 3,000 mg/m³
  • Optional silencer to reduce the noise level

Solution statement

The Filtration Group KE 3075 oil mist separator is a customer-specific solution that is now generally available and is used as a price-sensitive solution for a volume flow of 2,000 m³/h. This variant complements the existing LGA series 601 and LGA 1200/1201.

Results

  • Reliable separation and recovery of fine oil droplets using the virtually maintenance-free coalescer principle
  • Protection for man and machine by adherence to all limit values of TA-Luft
  • Significant improvement of the degree of separation has been achieved

Customer value

  • Extention of the maintenance interval
  • Reduction of machine downtime to a necessary minimum
  • Recovery of the separated oil
  • Virtually no consumables on the device
  • Reliable protection of the health of all employees ensured
