Temprite Oil Separators
by Jeremy Williams on May.23, 2017, under News
GCAP would like to thank Temprite and their donations to GCAP for training and also their booth at the convention center. Temprite’s coalescent oil separators set the industry standard for energy-efficient performance. We got one installed in the new engine room.
Temprite’s coalescent oil separators set the industry standard for energy-efficient performance. Unlike conventional separators, coalescent oil separators are not dependent on velocity for efficiency, maintaining the same level of effectiveness down to 20% of maximum flow.
- The high-efficiency performance of coalescing oil separators means better heat transfer through the coils, translating into significant kW savings.
- Coalescent oil separators are ideal for OEM applications where system cleanliness is paramount.
