Phoenix Membrane Purifier installed at Refinery

An East Coast Refinery contacted me recently regarding a contaminated steam turbine lube oil reservoir. The reservoir was 85 gallons in size and had both particulate and water contamination leading to unscheduled maintenance and downtime of the turbine…ultimately costing time and money.

Particulate and water contamination are a common problem that is addressed on a regular basis by Precision Filtration Products.  We were confident we could provide them the proper solution in a timely manner, saving them time and money!

After discussing the problem with our Engineering Team and given the size of the reservoir, we recommended using our Phoenix Membrane Purifier.   The Phoenix was the perfect piece of equipment to remove both the particulate and water contamination from their reservoir.

Before and After

The Phoenix was installed and within 48 hours, the reservoir lube oil went from looking like orange juice to crystal clear.  Our customer was extremely satisfied with the results.

Please contact PFP to solve any lube and hydraulic contamination issues.
