‌The oil filtration system is mainly used in the power generation industry to process and purify lubricating oil for water turbines and hydraulic oil for speed controllers, ensuring the cleanliness and performance of the oil quality, thereby ensuring the normal operation of power generation equipment and extending its service life.

The role of oil filtration system in the power generation industry

1. Improve the cleanliness of oil products: Oil filters can effectively remove mechanical impurities, moisture, gases, and other pollutants from oil products, significantly improving the cleanliness of oil products and preventing mechanical equipment from malfunctioning due to oil pollution.

2. Prevention and purification: The oil filter prevents pollutants from entering the lubricating oil system during the storage, transportation, and use of oil products, ensuring the normal operation of the equipment. For lubricating oil that has already been contaminated, the oil filter can be subjected to further purification treatment to restore the quality and performance of the lubricating oil.

3. Ensure the safe operation of equipment: Enterprises that use turbine oil in thermal power, hydropower units, nuclear power plants, solar thermal power generation, biomass power generation, waste heat power generation, industrial steam turbine units, etc. Clean lubricating oil can provide better lubrication effect, reduce friction and wear between mechanical components, lower the failure rate, and improve the overall performance of equipment, as it can timely purify the oil in operation before it deteriorates, and also purify the oil that has already leaked, leaked, aged, contains acid, has multiple bubbles, and emulsified.

Composition and function of oil filtration system

The oil filtration system usually consists of an electric oil pump, a pressure oil filter, a centrifugal oil filter, a vacuum oil filtration equipment, a coalescing online oil-water separation equipment, an oil storage tank, an adsorption equipment, a regenerated oil equipment, an oil testing equipment, and related pipelines and control components. These devices jointly implement the acceptance of new oil, storage of clean oil, filling, adding, and discharging of oil equipment, as well as purification, regeneration, and chemical testing of used oil quality.

Technical principle of oil filtration system

The oil filter adopts vacuum heating technology, which reduces the temperature of the oil and increases the vacuum degree, so that the water and gas in the oil can quickly evaporate and be discharged from the system, efficiently removing pollutants from the oil while protecting the chemical properties of the oil from being affected. Modern oil filters are usually equipped with intelligent control systems that can monitor the processing and effectiveness of oil products in real time, and automatically adjust working parameters according to actual conditions, making operation more convenient and efficient.

In summary, the oil filtration system plays an important role in the hydropower industry, ensuring the stable operation and extended service life of hydropower equipment through technical means such as improving oil cleanliness, prevention and purification, and ensuring safe operation of equipment.
