Product catalog summary
Overview
The Eliminator is an advanced lube oil treatment solution that integrates two high-performance technologies from Alfa Laval: a full-flow automatic filter and a high-efficiency disc stack centrifuge. These components can be housed together or installed separately, depending on the application requirements.

Specifications and Installation Options
The Eliminator can be mounted directly on the engine for high-speed engines or installed remotely with flexible or rigid connections. For larger installations, the filter and centrifuge can be installed as separate components connected by suitable pipework.

Advantages and Benefits
  • Eliminates the need for full-flow and bypass cartridge filters, reducing costs associated with purchasing, handling, and disposal.
  • Increases engine availability by eliminating the need for engine stops for filter changes.
  • Provides 100% engine protection with no filter bypass, ensuring contamination does not return through the lube oil system.
  • Maintains a sealed lube oil circuit, preventing contamination and oil leakage.
  • Reduces maintenance costs with centrifuge cleaning required every 2500 hours and minimal service needs for the filter.
  • Extends oil life due to the centrifuge's high efficiency, potentially doubling the lube oil's operational life.
  • Environmentally friendly with no oil loss, reduced risk of spillage, and extended oil life.

Technical Specifications
  • Max. filter inlet pressure: 12 bar
  • Min. filter outlet pressure: 3 bar
  • Normal filter outlet pressure: 3.5–6 bar
  • Max. viscosity in the filter: 75 cSt
  • Max. continuous temperature: 120°C
  • Normal pressure drop (∆P): 0.2–0.5 bar
  • Alarm pressure drop (∆P): 0.8 bar
  • Back-flushing flow: 3–5% of pump capacity
  • Mounting position: Horizontal
  • Housing material: Aluminium

Product Range and Applications
The Eliminator is suitable for lube oil treatment in engines burning HFO, DO, distillate, or gas fuels and can be retrofitted. Various models are available, with flow rates ranging from 14 to 90 m3/h.

Catalog excerpts

Eminator/Combined Cleaning Unit (CCU)-1

The Eliminator is an optimized lube oil treatment solution, combining two high performance Alfa Laval technologies: • Full-flow automatic filter for collecting abrasive particles. • High efficiency disc stack centrifuge removing particles from the backflush oil before returning to sump. Both components can be built into the same housing (Eliminator patented by Alfa Laval) or installed separately but operating in combination. For example: • Mounted directly on the engine (for high speed engines), the housing being specifically designed for the engine block, and the unit promoted with the engine by the engine manufacturer. • Remote mounted apart from the engine by means of flexible or rigid connexions. • The filter and centrifuge installed as separate components for larger installations or where the flow-rates are higher, and connected by suitable pipework.

Eminator/Combined Cleaning Unit (CCU)-2

Advantages and benefits • Eliminates full-flow and bypass cartridge filters, and all the costs associated with the cartridge filters: purchasing, transport, handling, stocking, administration, oil losses, disposal of used cartridges. • Increased engine availibility – no engine stop for filter cartridge change. • No filter bypass – the engine has 100% protection. In case of failure of one engine component, the remaining engine parts are protected from any resulting contamination returning through the LO system, by the full flow filter. • Sealed lube oil circuit – the lube oil circuit remains sealed:...

Eminator/Combined Cleaning Unit (CCU)-3

Full-flow automatic filter (A) The automatic filter is made up of a number of filter disc elements, each element composed of two identical halves. The number of elements required is defined to meet each application. The stainless steel filtering mesh is contained inside two supporting mesh, giving an element with a long operating life-time. This is one key part to the low life-cycle cost of the unit. The rigid frame of each element is made in die-cast aluminium. This frame has a number of radial ribs separating each element into 8 or 12 sectors depending on the element size. The oil passes through...
