A tramp oil separator, also known as a coolant or oil skimmer, is a device used in industrial settings to remove unwanted oils, greases, and other floating contaminants from the surface of liquids, particularly coolants and cutting fluids used in metalworking processes. The primary purpose of a tramp oil separator is to help maintain the quality and effectiveness of the coolant, which in turn improves the performance and longevity of the machines and tools used in manufacturing processes. Here is some useful information about tramp oil separators:

1. Operation Principle: Tramp oil separators operate on the principle of surface tension. They utilize a skimming mechanism to physically remove the floating tramp oils and contaminants from the surface of the liquid.

2. Applications: Tramp oil separators are commonly used in industries such as metalworking (machining, grinding, milling), automotive, aerospace, and any other industry where cutting fluids or coolants are used in large quantities.

3. Benefits:

   • Improved Cutting Performance: Removing tramp oils helps maintain the coolant's optimal properties, leading to better cutting performance and reduced tool wear.
   • Extended Coolant Life: Cleaner coolants last longer, reducing the need for frequent coolant changes and saving costs.
   • Reduced Maintenance: Clean coolants result in fewer clogs and maintenance issues in coolant circulation systems.
   • Environmental Compliance: Proper separation of tramp oils aids in complying with environmental regulations by preventing contamination.

4. Types of Tramp Oil Separators:

   • Belt Skimmers: These use a belt to attract and remove oils from the surface. The belt then passes through a set of wipers that squeeze out the collected oil.
   • Disc Skimmers: Discs rotate on the liquid surface, picking up oils, and the collected oil is then scraped off by wiper blades.
   • Tube Skimmers: Tubes are immersed in the liquid, and oil adheres to the tube's surface. The tubes are then raised to remove the oil.
   • Coalescing Units: These utilize special materials or structures to encourage the coalescence of oil droplets for easier removal.
   • Floating Suction Skimmers: Submersible pumps with floating intake devices can be used to draw oil from the surface.

5. Installation and Maintenance: Proper installation and maintenance are crucial for effective tramp oil separation. Regular cleaning of skimming mechanisms and monitoring of system performance are essential to ensure optimal operation.

6. Factors to Consider:

   • Type of Contaminants: Different skimming methods might be more effective for specific types of contaminants.
   • Fluid Type: The nature of the coolant or cutting fluid can impact the choice of skimming method and materials.
   • Flow Rate: The rate at which the coolant circulates affects the size and capacity of the tramp oil separator needed.
   • Work Environment: Environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, can influence the performance of the separator.

7. Cost and ROI: While tramp oil separators have upfront costs, their benefits in terms of improved tool life, reduced downtime, and extended coolant life can result in significant return on investment (ROI) over time.

When choosing a tramp oil separator, it's important to consider the specific needs of your industry, the type of contaminants you're dealing with, and the operational characteristics of your machines and processes. Consulting with experts in coolant management or industrial equipment suppliers can help you make an informed decision.

This entire unit is fixed on a coolant tank with a pump to supply coolant to the machine. The filtering paper is spread over an endless stainless steel mesh conveyor which is connected to a geared motor. This uniquely designed conveyor prevents overflowing of the liquid and the full width of the filtering paper is used. The movement of the filter paper is controlled by a float switch which actuates the geared motor.

OPERATION : The contaminated coolant liquid (oil) is first passed through the magnetic filter which separates almost 95% of the ferrous particles. The liquid further passes through filter which paper where all the nonferrous particles like grinding grit, stainless, brass or aluminum are filtered. As the porosity of paper gets filled up due to accumulates the liquid level rises. This triggers the float switch which starts the geared motor and fresh paper from the reel is pulled forward automatically. Now the liquid passes through the fresh paper and float switch shuts down the geared motor.

APPLICATION : Paper band cum Magnetic coolant Clarifier offer the excellent means of filtering both ferrous and nonferrous particles. Where high degree of purification id required and contaminates differ in from, size and composition. Paper Band Filter Machine as a rule gives best results. Paper Band Filter Machine are recommended for Grinding, Honing, Transfer lines and Machining center. It also can be used for rolling mills for filtering coolant which helps to improve the surface finish to the sheets.

How It Works :

• The contaminated liquid flows into the coolant filter by gravity or by pressure into the magnetic separator :
  • The jet breaker
  • Evenly dispersed the flow, as the contaminated fluid enters the separation chamber        
  • The rotating magnet unit
  • Collects the magnetic particles, which are subsequently removed by a special comb-blade
  • Passes to a containment tank.
  • Which also pushes the sludge
  • The cleaned liquid

   

Magnetic Drum :Magnetic drums possess higher strength in comparison of electromagnetic drums. These permanent magnetic drums are made using magnets, which are long lasting in quality and useful for whole of the life. The power of these magnets Drum does not reduce during normal use. Volume of material which can be handled by magnetic drums depends upon the diameter & length of the drum Size Range the larger the diameter and width of the drum the greater is the volume of material which can be handled. Magnetic Drum Have strong strength with power Full Magnetic Capacity. It can Remove up to 1 Micron Very Easily. This Magnetic Drum Made From M.S & Aluminum Rings which have very long Life.  This Magnets are useful for removing magnetic contamination with low magnetic properties and fine iron particles are to be separated. Magnetic drum separator is a self cleaning type system used for separation of Iron.

This media is ideally used in fine contamination applications where high dirt loading is expected. The depth of the media provides better levels of filtration, typically 10 - 15 micron nominal in addition to longer filter life compared to SBPP.

Oil Skimmers for removing tramp oil from machine tool coolant tank. Wheel skimmer (WS) effectively removes floating tramp oil from water soluble coolants. In its magnetic version (MWS) it will even remove dispersed ferrous particles from the coolant. Tramp oil caused leaking hydraulic system & usage of way oil is an even present problem in the management of water soluble coolants. Tramp oil reduces the coolants cooling and lubrication properties and supports bacterial growth which produces corrosive sulphuric acid. Tramp oil will shorten the coolant lifetime drastically, sings of affected coolant are: The bad smell, rust stained poor quality parts and premature tool wear. Renewal of labour, purchase and disposal fees and machine down time. The oil skimmer removes up to 12 lifer of tramp oil per hour. After half an hour the coolant surface has been cleaned almost completely. Even now the skimmer still removes tramp oil.
