Abstract
Oil flushing equipment has four function modes (40) for machinery with rotating parts: the first fills the machinery (40) with oil from a tank (1), the second re-circulates the oil through the machinery (40), the third empties the oil from the machinery (40) to the tank (1) and the fourth cleans the oil in the tank. All four function modes use the motor pump unit (9) and a sequence of two pressure filters (19) in the equipment. The second and third function modes use a vacuum filter (22) situated between the machine (40) and the motor pump unit (9).
Claims4
Oil flushing equipment for machinery with rotating parts (40) which includes a tank (1), a motor-pump unit (9), and oil filtration measures connected to a pipe unit for oil circulation, comprising:
- valves (7, 20) included in the pipes which allow the differentiation of a first circuit (A) to fill the machinery (40) with oil from the tank (1) through pressure filters (19), a second circuit (B) for re-circulation of oil through the machinery (40), through the pressure filters (19) and a vacuum filter (22), a third circuit (C) to empty the machinery (40) of oil and take it to the tank (1) passing through the pressure filters (19) and the vacuum filter (22), and a fourth circuit (D) to clean the oil in the tank (1) re-circulating it through the pressure filters (19),
- wherein
- the first, second, third, and fourth circuits (A, B, C, D) share the motor pump unit (9) and two pressure filters (19) placed in serial, and
- the vacuum filter (22), included in the second and third circuits (B,C), is situated between the machine (40) and the motor pump unit (9).
