PRODUCT SHOWCASE: Mist Control for Industrial Gearboxes

2790

The OILMISER™ Vapor Guard (OVG) is designed for lubricated gearboxes and bearing housings that are vented to atmosphere. High working loads, continuous operation, and internal moving parts, will generate oil mist and fumes inside a gearbox. Temperature fluctuations and thermal expansion cause these fumes to vent through the air breather into the workplace. The most visible result is an oily mixture of dust and dirt that coats the machinery and lube oil that drips down from the air breather, accumulating on the machine. Less obvious but much more serious is the reduced life of mechanical seals caused by the low level pressure and vacuum conditions that result from an oil saturated and dysfunctional air breather. The OVG traps the oil mist and fumes migrating out of the gearbox before they foul the air filter. For more information go online to [www.oilmiser.com].
