HCS SYSTEM

HCS is the Coalesce system which can remove free and emulisified water together.

The Harmful Affects of Water in Oil

Water is one of the most common and most damaging contaminants found in a lube or hydraulic system. Continuous or periodic high water levels can result in damage such as:

Metal Etching (corrosion)       Abrasive wear in hydraulic components

Dielectric Strength Loss        Fluid Breakdown

 Additive precipitation and oil oxidation    Reduction in lubricating properties

75% of Hydraulic & Lube Component failures are Caused by Contamination

The effects of moisture in your oil systems can drastically reduce on-stream plant availability. Bearing life and critical component life is greatly reduced by moisture levels above and within the saturation point. Many systems run constantly above this point due to inefficient dehydration technologies and high ingression. This develops acidity and loss of lubrication properties. Free water occurs when oil becomes

saturated and cannot dissolve any additional water. This water makes the oil appear cloudy and can even be seen in puddle form at the bottom of a reservoir. Water which is absorbed into the oil is called dissolved water. At elevated temperatures, oil has the ability to hold more water in the dissolved state due to the expansion of the oil molecules. As the oil cools, it loses its capacity to hold water and free water will appear where previously not visible. Fluid type also determines saturation point in addition to temperature changes.
