Dear macabf,
Ihave been working with electrostatic oil cleaners since 1992 and have found them to be very effective for removing small particles from lubricating and hydraulic oils. Before we go too far we would like to know more about the application. not one type of filter is best for all applications.
What type of machinery is this? what are the results of the oil analysis for the past. and what problem are you trying to solve.
Please send us some more information and we will try to help, or use the email if this is private. Applications rely do matter.

Dear macabf,

for steam turbines, I would hesitate using the current electrostatic designs which have a 500 ppm water limit. This can be a real issue when you need it the most.

The ISOPur unit does an equal job as far as varnish but does not have a water limitation.

The CC Jensen is a fine idea but I have the same reservations about the water here.

I would go back and ask the vendors what happens if the water content at the inlet of their system is 1% for an hour?

Good Luck.
