OC Centrifuges For Filter-Less Oil Filtration

The Oil Cleaning Centrifuge (OC) is a filter less, high-speed centrifuge for removing of removing solids such as soot and liquid contaminates to less than 1 micron.

Centrifuge Clean Oil means

Extending life of engine wear parts,
Extending oil change intervals and reduces emissions.
Extend the life of oil filters. No filters to stock. No disposal issues.
OC is powered by engine oil pressure.
Gear pumps are used for commercial or industrial applications.

The OC Series is installed on diesel, natural gas, and gasoline engines.

OC 250 CENTRIMOUNT IS EASY TO INSTALL NO RETURN HOSES. THE OC HAS NO CONSUMABLE PARTS OR FILTERS AND IS CAPABLE OF REMOVING SUB-MICORN PARTICLES

Filtration Fact. Diesel engines produce carbon soot during the combustion process. Soot concentrations will reduce the effectiveness of the anti-wear additives in the lubricating oil and cause increased engine wear. Standard 40-micron, surface-type, full-flow filters will not remove all of the carbon soot particles.

OC Centrifuge Benefits OF Micron Clean Oil

Remove more than 99% of engine-killing soot or solid particulate. Only the OC is efficient all the time! No by-pass filter matches the efficiency of the OC Centrifuge
Remove water, blow by, coolant, and acids. Feel free to ask for a copy of the Shell/CAT Landfill Methane to Power 3516 study.
Extend oil change intervals two to four times more depending on engine, age, type of service, and oil quality. Ask for the ROI Calculator. Use your numbers to determine the ROI.
ROI for marine diesel installations is generally 6-12 months depending on engine age and operation. Ask for OC 250 CAT 3500 series documented ROI.
Improve engine efficiency. Extend the life of wear parts. Tests validate the decrease the replacement of high-wear parts and fuel consumption based on a controlled study using Cummins engine and published by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)

How The OC Centrifuge Works

Principle of Operation

The oil from a pressure port on the engine or from a gear pump is feed though the inlet of the OC.
When the pressure exceeds 30 PSI the spring-loaded plunger will push back allowing oil to enter the rotor assembly through the central spindle.
The rotor assembly has two tangentially opposed nozzles at the base. The action of the oil exiting though the nozzles provide a counter rotation spinning of 5000 to 8000 rpm
Optimum results are achieved at 70-80 PSI. For example, the OC 50 operating at 70 PSI produces 7400 RPM which generates centrifuge force 2000 times that of gravity.
The clean oil is retuned under gravity though the exit hole in the base. On CAT 3500 and Cummins 855, KTA/QSK 19, 38 & 50 the proprietyCentriMount casting with internal channels which returns the oil to the engine oil supply.
Any particles heavier than the oil -soot etc., is compacted onto the inner rotor bowl and at predetermined intervals is easily removed. A spare rotor assembly enables rapid change time.

OC CentriMount

The CentriMount was introduced initially for marine applications to provide a compact, simpler and cost-efficient installation using the engines existing inspection ports. The CentriMount design eliminated as much as possible the potential for leaking or breaking an oil return hose.

The clean oil is returned to the engines oil supply through the internal channel in every casting.

Simply the best Centrifuge. No parts to replace. No filters

Opposing oil jets under pressure 80 psi spin the rotor more than 8000 rpm.
