Enhance the performance of your cutting and grinding operations with the PRAB Candle Filter. Designed for precision filtration, this system effectively removes fine particulate from spent oil and coolants in honing, electronic discharge machining (EDM), tungsten carbide tool grinding, and steel ball grinding.
The PRAB Candle Filter features a sophisticated design that uses media housed in a long cylinder with over 10,000 thin membrane wafers. These wafers reliably capture grinding swarf as small as 1–3 microns, ensuring consistent filtration performance, even during high-production operations. With its advanced self-cleaning capabilities, the Candle Filter optimizes fluid reclamation and coolant recycling, reducing waste and enhancing process efficiency.
Integrating the PRAB Candle Filter into your fluid management system can achieve cleaner cutting and grinding fluids, lower operational costs, and a more sustainable production process.
