Centrifugal hot oil filter for frying applications
Enhance oil quality and extend usability with this advanced centrifugal filtration system, designed to continuously remove fine particulates and reduce free fatty acids during frying, ensuring superior product consistency and flavor retention.

Continuously Filters and Purifies Hot Frying Oil
The Stein MX-MicroMax® Series, a centrifugal hot oil filter, is designed by industry leader Stein to meet the demands of food processing companies focused on maintaining oil purity and extending oil life. It uses a decanter centrifugal system to efficiently remove frying sediment to single-digit micron levels, ensuring the removal of free fatty acids and reduction of oil degradation. Suitable for applications such as chicken nuggets, breaded fish fillets, and tempura chicken bites, the system offers continuous high-speed processing to support food, poultry, and seafood industries. With a capacity of 20-30 GPM, it seamlessly integrates into conveyorized frying systems with PLC control for ease of operation. Crafted from stainless steel, it provides resilience against corrosion, offering CIP hook-ups for simplified sanitation. Optional configurations are available to tailor the system to specific process requirements.
