Such contamination need to be purified to maintain the quality of lube oil throughout as the quality of lube oil determines <a href="http://www.fuootech.com/" target="_self">equipment </a>lifetime and its productivity.
</p>
<p>
As impure lube oil leads to:

<p>
Therefore, we need Lube <a href="http://www.fuootech.com/oil-purifier/" target="_self">oil purifier</a> on ships for proper purification of lube oil with minimum throughput or batch purification in case of heavy contamination.
</p>
<p>
There are three ways in which lube oil purification can be done:
</p>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 26px; margin-left: 40px; padding: 0px; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=" list-paddingleft-2">

centrifugation,
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
filtration and
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
coalescence.
</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
A high-speed centrifugal purifier is installed on a ship to get rid of the unwanted contaminants and pollutants from the lube oil.
</p>
<p>
On ships, separate marine purifiers are used for fuel and lube oil. Lube oil is purified only through centrifugation while the fuel oil uses both centrifugation and gravity separation.
</p>
<p>
On ships, it is also referred to as Centrifuge. It is a purifier that separates two liquid substances based on their difference in density with the use of gravity disc to separate solid and water and sealing water as an operator with two-holed lower discs; one for water and other for oil.
</p>
<h3>
Construction Features of Centrifugal Purifier or “Centrifuge”:
</h3>
<p>
Electric Motor: This is responsible for driving various components such as bowl, tachometer, gear-pump via pinion gear, and rotating counter.
</p>
<p>
Friction Clutch: Friction clutch is installed on the horizontal shaft to safeguard and protect the electric motor from damage as the complete purifier assembly is too heavy for a motor to take the full load from the start without overheating. Once the system attends a preset required momentum, the pads gradually move out under centrifugal force connecting the motor directly to the bowl. It is necessary for the friction clutch to engage with the drum for the revolution of the bowl.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;"/>It safeguards against heavy starting current. A solid coupling, then due to a large starting current, would simply overheat and burn the motor winding. Therefore, friction coupling allows for some time, and after the motor reaches a certain RPM, the coupling gets engaged thereon.
</p>
<p>
Gear Box: The Gear Box Assembly in Marine Lube oil Centrifugal purifier consists of a motor shaft, friction clutch, the breaking lever, spur gear, worm gear and the attached gear pump.
</p>
<p>
The Bowl & Disc Stack: The Bowl is a solid assembly made up of high tensile steel working within purifier frame with ample space to accumulate and discharge sludge. Disc Stacks are incorporated with small holes to form the interface line and carry out separation using centrifugal force that causes oil to move inward and water and solid particle to move outward.

Dry Air Generator For Power Systems
</h2>
<p>
Dry air generators are more unique in power systems for large transformers and reactors.
</p>
<p>
When the transformer is shipped out from the factory, the heavier insulating oil is extracted and replaced with light dry air, which reduces the transportation cost of the large transformer.
</p>
<p>
Due to the long maintenance and accident repair time of a large transformer, sometimes it is more than half a month. If there is no absolute dry air filled into the transformer continuously, the transformer body will be seriously wet and rusted, accordingly the transformer insulation performance will be destroyed.
</p>
<p>
The <a href="http://www.fuootech.com/vacuum-pumping-and-drying-system/dry-air-generator/" target="_self">dry air generator</a> ensures that the internal insulation of the transformer will not get wet during the maintenance process, and the maintenance personnel will not suffocate due to lack of oxygen when working inside the equipment. It can avoid the influence of external climate change, avoid the traditional transformer oil thermal circulation drying method. It can improve the oil’s insulation performance and reduce the moisture, and also ensure the personal safety of maintenance personnel.
</p>
<p>
Our GF series dry air generator is mainly composed of air compressor, gas storage tank, cold dryer, suction dryer, three-stage precision dry air filter, pressure reducing valve, flow meter and electric control system.
</p>
<p>
Its features are as below:
</p>
<p>
The air compressor takes the latest patent Injection screw rotor from ATLAS COPCO and driven by the efficient and maintenance-free device. It features barely supervised, long-term stable and reliable work, self-diagnostic fault and alarm. The machine has an automatic restart function after power-off.
