Oil & Water Separators

NXP

NXP Series (75-10,000 ACFM)

Oil Water Separator

Next’s NXP Series Oil & Water Separators are designed to separate compressor oil from condensate with high efficiency without the use of external power.  The NXP oil water separators use a propriety alumina silicate substrate media bed to adsorb all compressor- based lubricants, including silicone, polyalkylene glycol (PAGs), and food grade. The innovative NXP is maintenance-free and mold resistant design also makes it EPA compliant. 

NXP oil-water separators play a crucial role in maintaining operational efficiency, protecting equipment, and minimizing environmental impact in compressor rooms and other industrial settings where oil-contaminated water is generated. By effectively separating oil from water, the NXP separators contribute to sustainable practices and ensure compliance with environmental regulations. Whether you’re running 15HP or 600HP, there’s a NXP oil water separator to match your medium to large, compressed air system.

Principle of Operation

Media Utilizes molecular Sieve technology and chemical bonding. Lubricant molecules attract to the substrate media bed like a magnet, permanently bonding and eliminating groundwater contamination

 

The operation of an oil-water separator typically involves several stages: 

  1. Coalescence: The mixture of oil and water enters the separator, where it encounters a series of baffles or plates. These elements slow down the flow and allow oil droplets to coalesce, forming larger droplets. 
  1. Separation: The larger oil droplets rise to the surface due to their lower density, forming a layer of oil on top of the water. This oil layer is then skimmed off and collected for proper disposal or recycling. 
  1. Filtration: To further enhance the separation process, some oil-water separators incorporate filters or media that help trap and remove any remaining oil particles or contaminants.
  2. Water discharge: The separated water, which is now relatively free of oil, exits the separator through an outlet and can be discharged or further treated, depending on local regulations.
