Solid-wall bowl separators for marine oil purification
Marine vessels often face the challenge of maintaining the purity of diesel and lube oil, which is critical for the efficient operation of engines. Given the space constraints on ships, there is a need for compact and effective systems that can handle oil purification on smaller vessels.

Purify diesel and lube oil efficiently
The GEA solid-wall bowl separators are manual cleaning separators specifically designed for marine applications. These separators are highly effective for clarifying or purifying oils with a low solids content of up to 0.01 percent by volume. They are typically used for the treatment of diesel oil and lube oil on smaller ships, including yachts, tugs, and pilot boats. The system’s compact size ensures a space-saving setup, crucial for the limited engine room spaces on ships. Operating at high temperatures up to 95°C, the separators use a centrifugal mechanism to achieve efficient oil separation. Built with high-quality stainless steel, the robust design ensures reliable performance even under tough marine conditions. The pump system and mobile design facilitate easy integration and convenient use wherever needed on the ship.
