Vent Mist Eliminators

Product Summary: The HILCO mist eliminator removes visible oil vapor from the air stream of vents in lubrication oil systems of large, high-speed rotating equipment such as gas turbines, steam turbines, turbo compressors, turbo generators, reciprocating engines, high speed couplings and gear boxes. The mist eliminator prevents oil mist from contaminating air or soil, helping facilities comply with environmental regulations. It also makes for a cleaner, safer work environment by eliminating oily reside build-up on engine room floors, enclosures and stairwells, while improving indoor/outdoor air quality and reducing fire hazards. The HILCO mist eliminator also saves money by returning oil to the sump that would normally be lost during the venting process, greatly reducing make-up costs. There are currently three versions available: Blower Assisted, Mist Eliminator with Heat Exchanger, and a Coalescer-Only model. All models eliminate oil mist with an efficiency of 99.97% removal of all airborne contaminant regardless of particle size.

Manufacturer Info: The Hillard Corporation has been a leading innovator in the field of oil purification and contamination control since 1925. Their policy is to combine the highest quality with the most effective contamination control in the design and manufacture of every product.

Product Detail: Blower- Assisted Mist Eliminator:
This model is designed for oil systems that cannot withstand back pressure or where back pressure may not be desirable. It can be installed with an airflow-restriction device to pull vacuum. It is also designed to maintain atmospheric condition in the oil system. Mist Eliminator with Heat Exchanger:
This model is often used where the oil can reach excessively high temperatures (200° F and above). By cooling the air stream, the oil mist becomes easier to coalesce and therefore more efficient. Coalescer-Only Mist Eliminator:
This model is appropriate for use where back pressure on an oil system is not a concern. It can be sized large enough to meet pressure-drop requirements. It also can be used where an existing blower is present to assist flow.
