The Importance of  Industrial Oil Mist Filtration

What is Oil Mist?

Removing oil mist and oil mist collection is an important aspect of any workplace. It not only provides cleanliness but also eliminates any safety hazards.

Oil mist turns into an oily substance on equipment and products when left to hinder on its own. Metalworking shops and other shops that utilize metalworking machinery typically control those machines with electronics and other sensitive controls that when coated in oil mist can disrupt the production process and cause a film of oil across equipment and other tools, which is less than ideal.

Long-term or repeated exposure to oil mist is harmful to your health. Oil mist contains 90% to 95% water and the remaining mix is made up of a soluble oil—but depending on the type of oil-based fluid being used, can contain a number of other additives as well.

How to Control Oil Mist

The best solution for oil mist is to install an industrial oil mist filtration unit that utilizes industrial oil mist filters for oil mist collection. The Industrial Maid mist collector solutions offer a vertical configuration to filter oil mist, smoke and grinding dust. Using a fiberglass media filtration and HEPA final filter option makes it an idea, and safe, solution for removing oil mist and smoke particles.
