Re-circ Oil Systems

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the design and functionality of oil re-circulating systems by DELIMON Cooling, which are used to lubricate bearings and gears, remove wear debris, and manage heat due to friction. These systems are often custom-designed to meet specific application needs.
System Components: Key components of the oil re-circulating systems include reservoirs, pumps, filters, oil coolers, reservoir heating, and control instrumentation. The selection of these components depends on the duty and viscosity of the lubricant.
Reservoirs: Typically rectangular, reservoirs serve as the base for mounting other components. The size is determined by factors such as contamination levels and heat dissipation needs. A larger reservoir may eliminate the need for an oil cooler.
Reservoir Heating: Heating is necessary unless low viscosity oil is used. It ensures consistent oil viscosity and aids in cold start-up and air release. Heating can be electric or steam-based, requiring thermostatic and level control.
Pumps: Positive displacement pumps are standard, with centrifugal pumps for low viscosity applications and piston pumps for high pressure. Systems usually have a main and standby pump for reliability.
Filters: The choice of filter depends on contamination levels and equipment tolerance. Duplex re-cleanable filters are used for high contamination, while disposable element filters are for cleaner oil, extending oil and bearing life.
Cooling: Required when process-induced heat raises oil temperature. Options include oil/water coolers or air blast coolers.
Control and Instrumentation: The system includes pressure, temperature, and flow control valves and instrumentation to maintain constant operation parameters. These controls allow for automatic operation, provided routine maintenance is performed.
Benefits: Using DELIMON Cooling's systems extends the life of bearings and gears, reduces maintenance shutdowns, and increases intervals between oil changes. High-quality components ensure continuous operation, and AutoCAD drawings facilitate efficient design communication.

Re-circulating Oil Systems – August 2008 DELIMON Cooling, Ramsden Court, Ramsden Road, Rotherwas Industrial Estate, Hereford, HR2 6LR, UK. Tel: +44 Cooling Re-circ Oil Systems Oil re-circulating systems are not only used to pump oil to bearings or gears to lubricate them but also to purge them of wear debris and, if necessary, to remove heat introduced into the oil by power losses due to friction. DELIMON Cooling has a multipurpose range of small oil systems. However, the majority of re-circulating oil systems are nearly always custom designed to suit the application. Reservoir, pumps, filters, oil coolers, reservoir heating, pressure control and instrumentation are selected depending on the duty and the viscosity of the lubricant required to be pumped. These can be fitted in our works on top of the oil reservoir or on a separate skid to form a compact unit but also, for larger systems, as individual items of equipment which are mounted on site and piped up to the plant being served. DELIMON Cooling has many years experience in the design of oil recirculating systems having supplied systems with flows from less than 5 litres per minute to over 1000 litres per minute. Only high quality proven components are used as the system normally has to operate continuously 24 hours per day throughout the year. The system will be continuously monitored allowing attendant free operation. DELIMON Cooling's design department produces high quality drawings using AutoCAD. These can be e-mailed, reducing the communication times for drawing approval etc., between design departments. Using a DELIMON Cooling designed oil re-circulating system extends the life of the bearings or gears, reduces the number of plant shutdowns for maintenance and increases the time between oil changes.

Email: [email protected]. Web: www.delimon.co.uk. Technical Data The DELIMON Cooling oil re-circulating system will include a selection of the following equipment: Reservoirs Most oil system reservoirs are of rectangular construction often forming the base onto which other items are mounted. The size of the reservoir depends on several factors. If the returning oil is likely to contain water or dirt contamination...
