A Study of Moisture Separation from Hydraulic Oil

Abstract

The objective of this research was to study and evaluate of the efficiency of moisture separation from hydraulic oil. This method was conducted by mixing pure water and oil in an oil tank, which was classified into 4 cases: 250 ppm., 500 ppm., 750 ppm., and 1,000 ppm. The results showed that when the maximum quantity of water was 1,000 ppm., the 710 ppm. of moisture could be separated from hydraulic oil. The highest temperature at 70ฐC was utilized when that water was 750 ppm. The maximum efficiency was 80% when the quantity of water was 500 ppm.
