This major automotive engine manufacturer, with arguably the most advanced plant in Europe, had issues with their existing, group-preferred oil mist system. Although these systems were only a couple of years old, the performance results came as a complete shock when surveyed.
Performance of their existing oil mist filtration system:
Inlet: 5.790 mg/m³
Outlet: 5.703 mg/m³
Efficiency: 1.5%
Scandfilter manufactured a bespoke retrofit ScandMist body, consisting of just two stages (it was not possible to fit a HEPA stage).
Performance of the ScandMist two-stage system:
Inlet: 5.516 mg/m³
Outlet: 0.034 mg/m³
Efficiency: 99.3%
The top adjacent graph highlights the difference in the performance of the two systems.
