Especially in the CNC processing industry, a large number of oil mist will affect the health of the workshop staff, and the equipment components immersed in the oil mist for a long time are also easy to receive damage, therefore, the oil mist separator is needed to eliminate the oil mist. According to the working principle of the classification, the oil mist separator is divided into centrifugal and electrostatic, the following to understand it.

The working principle of the centrifugal type is:

When the controller is connected to the power supply, the suction nozzle produces a strong negative pressure forcing the oil mist to be directed into the suction mist. The oil mist particles collide under the action of the wind wheel in the mist absorber, and the tiny particles gather into larger particles that can be controlled, which are intercepted under the block of the efficient mist absorbing material, and collected and recovered through the return port.

The working principle of electrostatic type is:

According to the second order principle of electrostatic field, the fine oil mist particles enter a strong electric field with the air flow and bring positive charge. When the particles with points reach the electric field between the purifier collection plates, the particles are attracted by the metal wash plate and adhere to the metal plate, so that the oil mist is separated from the air to achieve the purification effect.

Comparison of centrifugal and electrostatic oil mist separators:

The scope of application of centrifugal oil mist separator is relatively wide, and the requirements of multi-workshop environment are not very high; Electrostatic oil mist separator can only be used in a relatively dry workshop environment, for the workshop with very large fog, the conductive characteristics of water are easy to short-circuit the electric field of the oil mist separator.

The separation effect of centrifugal oil mist separator is not as fine as that of electrostatic oil mist separator, and the diameter of separable particles of electrostatic oil mist separator can be as small as 0.01 micron.

According to the working principle of the oil mist separator, we can divide it into centrifugal and electrostatic oil mist separators, and the introduction of its working principle is here, welcome to your attention.
