For low pressure machine tool coolant applications

Rosedale Filtration Products has installed a wide variety of systems throughout the metalworking and manufacturing industries. Our high quality industrial filters prevent metal chips, fines and other debris from contaminating cutting oils and coolants. Our pre-selected systems include the housing, appropriate seals and a filter bag.

Methodology
Charts, schematics and other information provided or referred to throughout this guide are intended as examples only. "Nominal" filter ratings are used and monthly throughputs are calculated to include the sizing of filter elements to provide a 30 day minimum life expectancy based on a typical dirt load ingression.

Rosedale offers the widest range of filters and filter bags, including oil-adsorbing, high temperature, high-capacity bags, high-efficiency liquid filter bags, and Beta Bag® filter bags. The term Beta Ratio or Beta Rating refers to the number of particles upstream divided by the number of particles downstream in a given size. For example, if there are 100 five micron particles upstream and 50 five micron particles downstream of the filter bag, then the Beta Rating for this filter in the five micron size is 100/50, or 2. In other words, the filter bag is said to have a Beta 5 of 2. The efficiency is 50% in the five micron range.

Typical Applications

Typical Applications
Our schematics illustrate how Rosedale filters can be easily installed in any coolant circuit. The versatile Rosedale filters can be used in all metalworking machines, including milling, boring, broaching, grinding, drilling, turning, etc.

General Requirements and Measurements
There are important factors that enter into specifying the level of coolant cleanliness that will improve the finish and extend tool life. Variables that affect coolants include: full or partial filtration, single pass or recirculating flow, dirt loading, pressure drop through all components of the filter systems, coolant temperature, flow rate, system pressure, and the presence of tramp oil.

This filtration guide is intended to provide general information about industry specifications. Use the data to compare and evaluate your specific application.

Model 4 Coolant Filter
For Flows to 5 gpm

Flows can be higher. These flows are selected to optimize dirt holding capacity. (For more detail information and other specifications concerning the Model 4, please click here or contact a Rosedale representative.)

These rugged and reliable bag filters are tailored to high-capacity applications yet are relatively low in cost, making these durable filtration devices one of the best values on the market. Choose from among the pre-selected ordering codes listed below for filter flows to 5 gpm with a 200 psi rated housing.

Model 4 Coolant Filter

Model 8 Coolant Filter
For Flows to 25 gpm

Flows can be higher. These flows are selected to optimize dirt holding capacity. (For more detail information and other specifications concerning the LCO Model 8, please click here or contact a Rosedale representative.)

These rugged and reliable bag filters are tailored to high-capacity applications yet are relatively low in cost, making these durable filtration devices one of the best values on the market. Choose from among the pre-selected ordering codes listed below for filter flows to 25 gpm with a 125 psi rated housing.

Model 8 Coolant Filter

Multi-Bag Filters

These multi-bag filters offer the widest range of flow capacities and contaminant holding capabilities. With anywhere from 2–23 perforated stainless-steel baskets specially fitted to hold disposable or cleanable filter bags, these high-capacity multi-bag filtration devices are extremely versatile. Bag sizes meet industry-wide standards: conventional 3--inch baskets take bag size 2 while optional 15-inch basket take bag size 1. The standard pressure rating for all models is 150 psi and all housing units can be supplied with a ASME code stamp, if required.

Choose from among the pre-selected ordering codes listed below. If you need assistance determining the size or type of product that suits your application, call a Rosedale representative today for assistance and information.
