Many Shops Need A Portable Coolant Cleaning System

Machine shop equipment relies on coolant for lubrication and cooling.  These cutting, milling and grinding tools are heavily dependent on clean coolant. Many filter systems are available to perform this task but until now these systems have fallen short on their ability to remove large quantities of debris without high maintenance and are not portable enough to service several machines.

The Hydro Engineering Portable Coolant Cleaning System solves these problems

Our Continuous Media Automatic Filtration Unit (CMAFU) is the answer to Portable Coolant Filtration. Its compact design (only 22” wide x 44” long) allows the CMAFU-2 to fit into almost any spot within reach of your coolant tanks. The pickup and transfer pump (supplied) sends coolant to the CMAFU over distances up to 50 feet. Once filtered the coolant automatically is returned to the coolant reservoir by the CMAFU’s discharge system. Here's how it works. As dirty coolant is transferred to the CMAFU-2 the coolant passes through a bed of filter paper. As solids collected blind the filter paper, the coolant level rises on top of the paper. This engages a mechanical float that activates the media advance motor and allows for a small amount of clean filter media to advance. The coolant level drops and media stops advancing. A single 100-yard roll of filter media allows for a tremendous amount of solids to be filtered without operator intervention. NO CARTRIDGE FILTERS to clean or change out!

Our Machine Shop Coolant Cleaning System is Simple to Set Up

The CMAFU-2 filtration unit is wheel mounted and portable and was designed to clean coolant in all types of cutting and grinding machines. The CMAFU-2 filters down to 5 microns nominal. Its 100 yard filter media roll automatically replenishes itself with no cartridges to change. Just look at the contaminants in this coolant.

Our Machine Shop Coolant Cleaning System is Simple to Set Up

Set up is simple with the CMAFU-2, just roll it to the grinding, milling, C&C or cutting machine to be cleaned, hook up 110 volt power (only 15 amps)

Drop in The Pump Transfer System

Place our pump transfer system in the coolant reservoir attach the inlet hose to the CMAFU-2, drop in the filtrate return hose and your ready to go.

Notice The Tramp Oil
Our Portable Coolant Cleaning System is ready to work. Coolant laden sludge is pumped from the reservoir and spread across the filter media. Working like a coffee filter the solids stay on top of the filter media and the filtered coolant runs through. The coolant is returned to the reservoir by the Automatic Pumping System located in the CMAFU-2.

All Waste Is Dried For Disposal

As the filter media plugs up with solids the conveyor it’s supported by automatically moves forward exposing fresh filter media to the coolant stream. Spent filter media is dumped into the catch container where it’s almost dry.
