Vacuum Dehydration

Water & Particulate Removal System

Remove Free, Emulsified & Dissolved Water

Maintaining a high level of cleanliness and low level of moisture is an essential part of lubrication and component life. Through proper oil dehydration, our customers can protect their equipment from the harmful effects of water by removing free, emulsified, and dissolved water as well as entrained air and gases from the oil.

Water Removal

The left sample is before vacuum dehydration. It contains 1800 ppm water. The right sample is after vacuum dehydration. It contains 100 ppm water.
