De-Watering & Filtration Unit

The Hydac FluidAqua Mobil (FAM) portable fluid purifier is a compact self contained purifying system designed to remove free and dissolved water, and free and dissolved air/gases and solid contaminants from lubricating, hydraulic, heat transfer fluids and insulating oils.

The unit is a mobile castor mounted design requiring only a minimal operating area close to the contaminated fluid reservoir.

It comes in a number of different models with a flow rate of between 15 & 70 litres minute and the option of heating

The FAM conditioning purifier removes 100% of free water and as much as 80% of dissolved water. It also removes 100% of free and entrained gases and up to 80% of dissolved gases. Particulate removal is achieved using the high Beta rated Dimicron type filter elements.

Advantages

Applications

The contamination of hydraulic fluids with water can either be caused by condensation or by penetration. Variations in temperature of the hydraulic tank lead to condensation. The penetration of water can be caused by defective cooling hoses, defective seals or external leakages into the system. In lubrication and hydraulic fluids water can occur in two different forms: free water (visible) dissolved water (not visible) Aquamicron®, centrifuges and condensation methods normally only separate free water, the FAMH separates both forms of water from the oil. While dewatering the fluid, dissolved gases are also removed. Thereby the lubricating properties are improved which extends oil life, reduces component wear rates, and eliminates production losses caused by breakdowns.
