Lubrication storage and dispensing system

June 4, 2013
Lubrication Storage & Dispensing System from The IFH Group has two 65-gal containers and one 130-gal container plus 3-way product diverter valve assemblies, individual pumping systems and 10-µm filters.

Lubrication storage & dispensing system from The IFH Group has two 65-gal containers and one 130-gal container plus 3-way product diverter valve assemblies, individual pumping systems and 10-µm filters. Fluids can be pumped in and pumped out and kidney looped through the filters. Individual pumping systems ensure no cross contamination.

The 3-way diverter valves, in combination with the individual pumping systems and filters, allow fluid to be pumped through the filters into the containers, and then pulled back out of the containers through the filters with the transfer units.

Fluids can also be pulled from the containers, cycled through the filters, and sent back into the containers (kidney loop). 

The system can be customized to include containers of virtually any size.  Standard capacities include 500, 300, 250, 130, and 65 gal. Optional equipment available includes the IFH Spill Containment System that prevents costly cleanups and potential fines.
