LYC-J machines combine particle filtration and water removal in one mobile unit, aimed at oils that have picked up free or emulsified water. The published design describes a five-stage filtration system working on the coalescence principle. The specification lists a 100 μm strainer ahead of the pump and two fine particle stages; the system description also names a coalescing system and a separation system.

In the coalescing stage, tiny water droplets merge into larger ones. Hydrophobic separator elements then hold the water back on their outer surface until it sinks into a collection tank. When the water interface reaches a set level, a valve is opened to drain the tank. The process is physical, and the product information states that it does not change the oil's physical or chemical properties.

Models run from 25 to 400 L/min with 0.75–13 kW motors on AC 380 V three-phase. Operating temperature is 25–80 °C and recommended viscosity 10–120 cSt, both narrower than the LYC-A/B limits, so check your oil's behaviour at start-up temperature. To choose a size, estimate how much water has to be removed and over what time, then select the flow; set the particle-stage precision from your cleanliness target. Footprint grows quickly with flow, and the 400 L/min model weighs 2,860 kg, so confirm lifting and floor space early. Contact us with your oil type and contamination level for a recommendation.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of water contamination can the LYC-J handle?

The product information describes removal of both free water and emulsified water, and notes particularly good results where an oil contains a large amount of water. Share your oil type and water level so we can confirm the right size.

Does the water-removal process change the oil?

The published description states that the coalescing and separation process does not change the oil's physical or chemical properties. It is a physical method.

Can I get a different flow rate or fine-stage precision?

Six flow sizes from 25 to 400 L/min are listed, with selectable precision in each fine stage. For other requirements, please contact us and our team will check what can be arranged.

What are the minimum order quantity and lead time?

Minimum order quantity and lead time depend on the model, options and order size. Please contact us to confirm.
