Oil Mist Separators for Hydro Turbines

Underpressure at all bearings with only one Oil Mist Separator

Filtration at up to four bearings with one Oil Mist Separator

For hydro turbines, it is crucial that the vacuum can be individually adjusted at each bearing (turbine, guide bearing, generator) so that the oil mist can be extracted locally.

Oil mist extraction at hydro turbine - 4way suction manifold

In order to meet the little space available in hydropower plants and to minimize investment costs, FRANKE-Filter has developed a system for multiple extraction at the same time.

A centrally installed Oil Mist Separator offers the option of adjusting the vacuum for all bearings individually.

Special filter cartridges ensure reliable filtration

Due to the special nature of our microfibre filter cartridges, we are able to guarantee a high separation efficiency of 99.99% at a particle size of 0.1 μm and a smooth filtration process.

We develop Oil Mist Separators that are tailored perfectly to your local conditions

FRANKE-Filter offers you over 30 years of experience in the development, design and manufacturing of Oil Mist Separators for hydro turbines. Thus, we are able to offer the best suitable Oil Mist Separator for almost all hydro turbines from well-known manufacturers.
