Mary Jo Surges, vice president and general manager, Eaton's Filtration Division said: "The IFPM 72 system will help our customers meet increasingly challenging needs."
Being portable, the IFPM 72 system is designed with the operator in mind. Features include a user-friendly touch display, automatic shutdown, and continuous measurement of fluid temperature, water saturation and filter flow-through rates.
The system uses vacuum evaporation techniques, drawing contaminated fluid in and heating it to increase filtration speed. The cleaned fluid is then drawn out, passed through a particulate removal filter and then sent back to the system, where an installed water sensor allows for permanent control of the fluid saturation. This mechanism combines high water separation rates with efficient energy usage for a variety of applications, including hydraulic and lubrication oils and biodegradable fluids.
