How Does KLAROL Hydraulic Oil Purification Systems Work

KLAROL cleans oil in two stages using three different methods. In the first stage oil enters the KLAROL depth filter to be cleaned by Absorbtion. All solid contaminants upto five microns are removed in this stage. The oil then passes at a controlled flow rate into the KLAROL evaporation chamber which is heated to ensure a dry airspace. Controlling the flow of oil through KLAROL ensures formation of thin oil film in the evaporation chamber. These conditions are ideal to evaporate moisture, lower oxidized molecules of oil, air & gases from the oil. Purified oil then goes back into the parent tank. The KLAROL depth filter also removes insoluble contamination like sludge, varnish, and particles smaller than a micron by Adsorption i.e. (attracting and trapping the contamination in its filtering medium) when oil is continuously cycled through KLAROL. Initial by products of oxidation, like metal salts & water catalyze the process of oxidation making it a chain reaction. Oxidized lower molecular weight products are initially soluble in oil. Over a period of time they polymerize into heavy molecular weight products which turn into sludge, varnish and lacquer thereby causing malfunctioning of the machine. KLAROL has the capability of removing all solid by products of oxidation. It is also capable of removing water and the oxidized lower molecular weight products of the oil. By removing these contaminants as soon as they are formed KLAROL ensures that the process of oxidation is minimized and the chain reaction is broken. Removal of the lower molecular weight products, ensures that there is no formation of sludge, varnish and lacquer. One of the primary reasons for thermal degradation of oil is aeration or free air in the oil. KLAROL prevents oil from getting thermally degraded by releasing free air from oil. KLAROL is different from other oil filtration machines! It not only removes but also prevents generation of contamination.
