Oil/Water Separators were developed by Master Fluid Solutions to extend coolant life and to reduce the harmful effects of tramp oil contamination on water-miscible fluids such as poor tool life and finishes, corrosion, dermatitis, and fluid rancidity.
The High-speed Disc-bowl Centrifuge™ is an engineered tramp oil separator system utilizing rugged, properly sized, engineered, and reliable centrifuges.
Available with both solid-wall bowl centrifuges (manual) or with self-desludging bowl centrifuges (automatic).

SCROUNGER® Jr Oil Skimmer
Effectively Remove Oil from Coolants and Washing Solutions
Tramp oil is a major source of problems associated with water miscible cutting and grinding fluids.
Tramp oil contributes to the growth and formation of:
coolant-destroying bacteria
undesirable residues on machine tools and workpieces
smoke and oil mist in shop atmospheres
These problems result in:
shortened coolant life
poor material removal rates
poor surface finish and size control
decreased tool and wheel life
Numerous devices ("floating ropes," wheels, and belts) have been developed over the years to remove "free floating" tramp oil from the surface of coolant. While they have all worked to one degree or another, they generally have been either "troublesome," high maintenance, relatively ineffective, or able to operate only on limited liquid level fluctuations.
As a "belt-type" skimmer, these units are effective in removing floating oil from widely fluctuating liquid levels of coolants or parts washing solutions. The SCROUNGER features a revolutionary new oleophilic belt and a totally new concept of stripping the separated oil from the belt. The SCROUNGER Jr. uses the same "oil loving" belt, but uses a more compact scraper blade to strip the separated oil from the belt.
Features
115 volt, single phase, 50/60 Hz
heavy-duty, impedence-protected, fan-cooled drive motor with hardened shaft and needle bearings (220 volt,
single phase, 50 Hz also available)
open, accessible oil-collecting tray with a convenient drain connector
"oil loving" oleophilic belt (purchased separately)
heavy-duty steel construction, with industrial-grade enamel paint
Benefits
fast, simple belt changing
low maintenance
lower hang roller that will not fall off in the machine sump even in turbulent conditions
Options
dewatering tray
portable kit
special length belts available on special order
special belt materials available for high temperature or pH applications on special order
SCROUNGER Jr Belts
all belts 1" [25mm] wide
24" [610mm]
32" [815mm]
44" [1120mm]
