Filtration

Provides continuous MEDIA FREE filtration to remove solids from industrial fluids.

Benefits

• Removes fine particulate material easily
• Improves tool/grinding wheel life
• Reduces disposal
• Reduces/eliminates use of disposable media
• Low operating costs
• Not affected by tramp oils

Features

• Removes magnetic and nonmagnetic materials
• Robust design
• Manually cleaned units feature removable rubber liner for easy cleaning
• Automatic self-desludging units feature fully automated operation
• Very effective on glass and ceramic applications, as well as metalworking fluids

Low-speed or basket centrifuges can be very successfully applied to solids reduction in a variety of applications including:

• Machining of parts
• Grinding
• Sawing
• High-speed centrifuge pre-filtration
• Rolling and tube mills
• Water jet cutting
• Descaling operations
• Wire drawing
• Parts washers
• Quench tanks
• UF pre-filtration
• Precious metals recovery

Specialized, heavier-duty machines are often required for the following operations because the solids pack so densely in the centrifuge bowl:

• Carbide grinding
• Glass grinding
• Ceramics machining or grinding
• Vibratory finishing

Both manual and self-cleaning centrifuges help to:

• Improve surface finish
• Improve product quality
• Increase productivity
• Eliminate frequent tank clean out
• Extend fluid useful life
• Reduce wear on tools and parts
• Reduce machine maintenance

All solids-from-liquids centrifuges are specifically engineered for heavy-duty industrial applications and will offer years of trouble-free operation. If service is ever required, our fully trained, licensed service technicians will have your machine running smoothly in no time.

The Li'l Sucker™ is the newest addition to the Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker™ line of sump cleaning vacuums. Based on extensive customer research and extended field trial experience, customers were able to tell us what they liked, disliked, felt had no value, and would change in the previous designs. The result was the Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker that customers designed. It is durable, highly maneuverable, easy to use, and provides exceptional suction and discharge flow rates.

• Removes the coolant, sludge, and chips from the sump
• Filters the sludge and chips from the fluid
• Returns filtered coolant to the machine tool sump, or
• Transports the coolant to waste treatment for disposal, or to a XYBEX Recycling System for recycling

Features

• Tank capacity of 50 gallons (190 liters)
• Suction rate up to 85 GPM (320 LPM)
• Discharge rate up to 40 GPM (150 LPM)
• 1.6 ft³ (45 dm³) chip basket holding capacity, roughly 12 gallons (45 liters)
• Available in both air venturi and electric models
• 120 VAC, single phase, 50 Hz/60 Hz electric model standard
• 220 VAC, single phase, 50 Hz/60 Hz electric model optional
• Complete with hoses and straight cleaning tool
• Optional cleaning tools available
• Perfect for today's smaller machine tool sumps

The Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker™ will clean virtually any machine tool sump quickly and thoroughly. During the process of cleaning the machine, the sump cleaner also:

• Removes the coolant, sludge and chips from the sump
• Filters the sludge and chips from the coolant
• Returns the filtered coolant to the sump, or transports the coolant to waste treatment for disposal or to a XYBEX Recycling System

The Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker is fast! In a typical example, a cylindrical grinder sump with 120 U.S. gallons (454 liters) of coolant and 700 pounds (318 kilograms) of sludge was completely cleaned, the coolant filtered, and returned to the sump in ten minutes.

Features

• Capacities from 65 U.S. gallons (246 liters) to 1,000 U.S. gallons (3780 liters)
• Single or twin compartment configuration
• Push around, tow around, or truck mounted units available
• 3.5 ft³ (.095m³) or 5.3 ft³ (.14m³) holding capacity sludge basket
• Air, 110V single phase, 3-phase electric, or LP gas power sources
• Complete with hoses and cleaning tools
