Aite coalescing & separating oil filter – four-stage separation, water <100 PPM, NAS 6 cleanliness, low energy consumption.
1. Product Overview
Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter is a high-performance oil purification
system that uses advanced coalescing and separation technology to remove
water and particulate contaminants from hydraulic oil, lubricating oil,
turbine oil, and other industrial fluids. Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter
contains two filter elements with different functions – the coalescing filter
element and the separation filter element. When oil flows through the
coalescing separator, it goes through four stages of filtration, coalescence,
sedimentation, and separation to achieve the function of filtering particle
pollutants and removing water.
As a professional manufacturer specializing in oil purification equipment and
filtration solutions, we deliver Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter with
stable performance, reliable construction, and competitive pricing for industrial
facilities worldwide.
2. Working Principle
Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter operates on the principle that different
liquids have different surface tensions. When liquid flows through a hole,
the smaller the surface tension, the faster the rate of passing through.
When different mixed liquids flow into Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter,
they first enter the coalescing filter element. The coalescing filter element has
a multi-layer filter medium with pore size increasing layer by layer. Due to the
difference in surface tension, oil passes through the filter quickly, while water
passes much slower. Because the coalescing filter element adopts hydrophilic
material, tiny water droplets are adsorbed on the surface of the filter layer,
resulting in coalescence of water droplets. Under the action of kinetic energy,
small droplets race through the opening and gradually converge into large
droplets, which settle and separate from the oil under the action of gravity.
After oil passes through the coalescing filter element, there are still small water
droplets moving forward to the separation filter element under the action of
inertia. The separator element is made of hydrophobic material. When oil
passes through the separator element, water is kept out of the separator
element, while oil passes through and is discharged from the outlet.
3. Four-Stage Separation Process
Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter achieves particle filtration and water
removal through four internal stages:
3.1 Filtration Stage
The oil first flows from inside to outside through the coalescing filter element.
The coalescing filter element is a suitable combination of glass fiber and other
synthetic materials, specially prepared for oil dehydration with good
hydrophilicity. The high-precision filter material in the inner layer first removes
particle pollutants from the oil.
3.2 Coalescence Stage
The outer layer of demulsification coalesces tiny water droplets in the oil into
larger droplets. The coalescing filter core has the dual function of filtering
particulate pollutants and coalescing water.
3.3 Sedimentation Stage
Larger water droplets rely on their own gravity to settle into the sedimentation
tank. Smaller water droplets that settle too late are carried by the oil flow to
the separation filter.
3.4 Separation Stage
The separation filter core is made of stainless steel mesh with good
hydrophobicity. When oil flows through the separation filter element from
outside to inside, small water beads are intercepted outside the filter
element – only allowing oil through and not letting water through, further
separating the water.
4. System Components
Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter incorporates four integrated systems:
Particle Filtration System – Uses imported filter material as filter medium with
large filter area design, filtering very fine particle impurities to achieve high
cleanliness.
Coalescence System – Composed of a set of coalescing filter elements adopting
polar molecular structure. Free water and emulsified water in the oil are
coalesced into large water droplets, which settle into the water storage tank
under gravity.
Separation System – The separation filter element is made of hydrophobic
material. When oil passes through, water droplets are blocked on the outer
surface and coalesce with each other until settling into the water storage tank.
Drainage System – Separated water is stored in the water storage tank.
When the interface height reaches the set value, the valve opens to discharge
water until reaching the lower liquid level, then closes to stop drainage.
5. Technical Characteristics
Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter delivers superior performance through
the following key characteristics:
· Breaks all oil-water emulsification structures in oil
· Removes free water in oil with water content less than 100 PPM after
treatment
· Filters solid particles in oil with cleanliness of NAS 6 or higher
· High filtration accuracy, large contaminant capacity, long filter element
service life, and high dehydration efficiency
· No heating, vacuum, or high-speed centrifugal – low energy consumption
and low use cost
· Does not change the physical and chemical properties of oil – prolonging
oil service life

8. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter designed for?
A: Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter is designed for dehydration and
purification of hydraulic oil, lubricating oil, turbine oil, and transformer
oil – removing particle impurities, emulsified water, and free water from oil.
Q2: How does the Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter work?
A: Aite Coalescing & Separating Oil Filter operates on the principle of different
surface tensions. Oil passes through the coalescing filter element quickly while
water passes slowly, causing water droplets to coalesce into large droplets that
settle by gravity. The separation filter element then keeps remaining water out
while allowing oil to pass through.
