LUCB-16 Hand-Pushed Portable Barrel Oil Filter Truck

Product Overview

The LUCB-16 hand-pushed portable barrel oil filter truck represents a refined solution for industrial oil purification

 and fluid transfer. Designed with mobility and efficiency in mind, this compact filtration unit serves as an essential tool

 for maintaining fluid cleanliness across a broad spectrum of industrial applications. Its hand-pushed design, combined 

with a thoughtfully integrated barrel configuration, ensures that operators can maneuver the unit with ease while

 maintaining

 continuous filtration operations in demanding workshop environments.

Working Principle

The LUCB-16 operates on a well-engineered vacuum-assisted filtration principle that ensures thorough contaminant removal. 

When the unit is activated, polluted oil is drawn into the system through the inlet port under atmospheric vacuum suction. 

The oil first passes through an integrated heating element, which reduces fluid viscosity to optimize flow characteristics and 

enhance downstream separation efficiency.

Once preheated, the oil enters the primary coarse filtration stage, where a 100-micron filter element captures large particulate 

contaminants such as metal shavings, dirt, and debris. This initial filtration stage protects downstream components from 

premature wear and extends the service life of the finer filter elements.

The oil then proceeds to the vacuum separator, a critical component in the purification process. Within the separator, 

the oil flows through a specially engineered diverging device that transforms the fluid into a thin film, creating an exceptionally

 large surface area per unit volume. This maximizes the oil's exposure to the low-relative-humidity atmosphere within the

 vacuum chamber, enabling efficient removal of dissolved water, entrained air, and volatile gases.

The evaporated water vapor and gas mixtures are drawn off and passed through a condensing system. As these vapors cool, 

they condense into liquid form, which is collected in the water reservoir for proper disposal. Any remaining non-condensable

 gases are evacuated by the vacuum pump, ensuring that the purified oil exiting the system meets stringent cleanliness 

standards.

Application Fields

The LUCB-16 is engineered to serve a diverse range of industries where fluid cleanliness is critical to equipment reliability 

and operational efficiency. Key application sectors include:

· Power Generation: Power plants, power stations, and electricity supply bureaus utilize the unit for turbine oil, insulation oil, 

and hydraulic system maintenance.

· Industrial Manufacturing: Metallurgical plants, chemical facilities, and machinery workshops benefit from the filtration of 

hydraulic fluids and lubricating oils.

· Transportation and Logistics: Railway systems and aviation maintenance facilities employ the unit for compressor oil and 

mechanical oil purification.

· Oil Storage and Distribution: Oil depots rely on the LUCB-16 for fuel transfer and filtration of diesel, gasoline, and other light

 petroleum products.

The unit is compatible with a wide variety of liquid media, including mechanical oil, hydraulic oil, turbine oil, compressor oil,

 insulation oil, water-glycol mixtures, diesel, and gasoline. Beyond its primary filtration function, the LUCB-16 also serves as 

an effective fluid transfer pump, enabling simultaneous transport and purification of industrial fluids.

Key Advantages

The LUCB-16 is distinguished by its reliable performance, compact footprint, and user-friendly operation. The interchangeable 

fine filtration cartridges allow operators to select from 3 μm, 5 μm, 10 μm, 20 μm, or 30 μm filtration ratings, providing flexibility 

to meet specific application requirements. Importantly, the filtration process removes only physical contaminants and does 

not alter the oil's chemical properties or performance characteristics. The unit's low noise output and robust construction 

make it suitable for continuous operation in both workshop and field environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What types of oil can the LUCB-16 process?

The unit is compatible with mechanical oil, hydraulic oil, turbine oil, compressor oil, insulation oil, water-glycol mixtures, 

diesel, gasoline, and various other liquid media. However, it is not recommended for use with highly volatile or corrosive 

fluids without consulting the manufacturer.

Q2: How often should the filter elements be replaced?

Replacement intervals depend on the contamination level of the oil being processed. When the pressure gauge on the fine

 filter housing reaches 0.4 MPa, the fine filter element should be replaced. The coarse filter element should be inspected

 regularly and cleaned when suction resistance increases significantly.

Q3: What should I do if the unit fails to draw oil?

Check the following: ensure the pump rotation direction is correct; verify that all suction-line connections are airtight;

 confirm the suction pipe is submerged below the oil surface; and inspect the coarse filter element for blockage.

Q4: Does the filtration process alter the oil's chemical properties?

No. The LUCB-16 removes only physical contaminants such as particulate matter, water, and gases. It does not affect the

oil's viscosity, additive package, or other performance characteristics.

Q5: Is the unit suitable for continuous operation?

Yes, the LUCB-16 is designed for reliable continuous operation. Routine maintenance, including filter inspection and 

replacement, should be performed according to the operating conditions to ensure optimal performance.

Q6: Can the fine filtration accuracy be adjusted?

Yes, the fine filter cartridge is interchangeable. Operators can select cartridges with filtration ratings of 3 μm, 5 μm, 10 μm, 

20 μm, or 30 μm to suit specific application requirements.
