For best results, we suggest the following:
-
•Heating oil to 140º (max 180º ) decreases viscosity, enhances cleaning.
-
•Oil filtered to 100 microns before centrifuge filtering, requires 3 - 4 passes with the centrifuge to reduce contaminants in oil to <1 micron.
-
•Oil filtered to 5 microns before centrifuge filtering, requires 2 passes with the centrifuge to reduce contaminants in oil to <1 micron.
-
•During filtering, solid contaminants are spun into an outer bowl which is easily cleaned by taking it apart and scraping out the waste. It takes about 20 minutes after filtering for the rotor to cool off enough for cleaning.
-
•Four (4) bolts attach the “L” mounting bracket to the centrifuge with a gasket in between. Clean oil exits through a 1-1/4” internal thread. Never use less than a 1-1/4” drain line!
