Cut new coolant purchases up to 75% with the PRAB tramp oil separator system. Extend the life of soluble oils, coolants and washwater.
The PRAB tramp oil separator system removes free-floating and mechanically dispersed tramp oils, bacteria, slime, inverted emulsions, and more from individual machine sumps, central systems, and wash tanks. Systems can be installed machine side, or as a centralized system. Payback in as little as 6-9 months.
PRAB Tramp oil separators are designed as a simple, trouble-free, economic solution for fluid reclamation- removing free-floating and mechanically dispersed tramp oil from individual machine sumps, central systems and wash tanks.
Within the tramp oil separator system, contaminated fluid flows through a series of baffles and a porous media bed where free and mechanically dispersed oils are separated from the fluid. The clarified fluid flows over the effluent discharge weir back to the reservoir for reuse.
The collected oils, bacteria, slime and inverted emulsions are collected at the top of the separator and automatically discharged from the tramp oil separator system by an adjustable weir into a tote or other container.
Various models are available to accommodate different flow rates including:

Tramp oil that floats on the surface of water based cutting fluid in the machine sump is problematic in a variety of ways. Separating and removing this oil should be a priority to eliminate its negative effects and maximize coolant effectiveness. By removing tramp oil from the sump with a fluid recycling system, metalworking operations can cut costs and reap […]
The United States the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration states that good housekeeping in the workplace not only creates a cleaner, safer workplace, but also promotes positive behaviors, habits and attitudes. However, to fully reap the benefits, the administration recommends that good housekeeping be maintained throughout the workday. This helps to avoid the physical consequences […]
