This unit comes standard with a poly filter housing, but you can upgrade to our Size 2 Aluminum vessel for an additional cost. See picture above.
The F2F Ultimate Filtration Unit is for the truly serious WVO Enthusiast that wants one system that will settle, clean and polish the WVO to less than 1 micron.
Start by pouring the dirty WVO into the settling drum through the 200 micron drum strainer which will eliminate the larger particles. Heat the oil to ~110 degrees using the Brisk 1100w heater for 24 hours. The magnetic surface mount thermometer will ensure the accuracy of the temperature of the oil. The 55gal settling drum has a lower sludge drain and upper pump suction to ensure any particles that settle out stay in the drum. The ½ HP 5gpm transfer pump then delivers the WVO to the light industrial filter housing which provides a 2.0 ft² of surface area.
Your next step will be to pump the clean oil into the centrifuge tank and heat the WVO to ~160 -180ºF with the 1500 watt Watlow heater and let the centrifuge do the rest. There are no parts to replace when the centrifuge is full, merely take it apart, clean it and you are back in business. A magnetic surface mount thermometer gives positive indication of temperature from 0-250 degrees F. The gear pump delivers the WVO to the centrifuge at 90psi for optimum performance. The excess flow is then routed back to the drum to stir the wvo which ensures the oil is as clean as possible. After you have finished polishing the oil to your satisfaction; use the ½ HP 12gpm transfer pump and 20' hose and nozzle to pump directly to your vehicle or a holding tank.
This package includes: 55gal drum with welded fittings, 55gal drum with ball valve and 3-way valve, SCC50 centrifuge, gear pump with hydraulic hosing rated to 400psi, pressure relief valve, Watlow 1500 watt drum heater, Brisk 1100 watt drum heater, LIFH filter housing with stand, 3 5m nominal polyester filter bags, 200m drum strainer, 2 magnetic surface mount thermometers, liquid filled stainless steel 2.5” pressure gauge, 5.5 gpm transfer pump, 12gpm transfer pump, pressure gauge rated at 100psi, 20' fuel hose and nozzle,10' of braided hose, ¾" gate valves, 3 8' power cords w/switch and all necessary fittings to assemble the system. A lid will come with each drum.
Our units are equipped with an “open top” design for drying of the oil. This allows for water and moisture to evaporate during the heating and centrifuge process. If the lid is on during the process the moisture has no where to escape and will fall back into your oil.
