Oil separator for refrigeration circuit ESK Schultze Kältekomponenten
The oil separator effectively removes oil from the discharge gas in the strainer elements and returns the oil through a high precision float valve to the crankcase or oil control system. The efficiency of oil recovery is dependent on the reduction of gas velocity in the separator itself. Providing the oil separator is correctly applied, this will be about 97 % to 99 %.
The use of ESK oil separators protects the compressor from defects cause by lack from lubrication and improves the heat transfer in the evaporator.
Oil separators should be installed whenever the following applications are considered:
• Evap. temp. below <-10 °C
• Blast freezers
• Capacity control
• Two stage plants
• Parallel systems
• Cascade plant
• Flooded systems
• Booster
