Separators for power plants

Ensure a reliable power supply by treating fuel and lube oils with precision separators, minimizing corrosion and maximizing efficiency across all operational conditions.

The OSE separator generation from GEA is a centrifugal separation equipment engineered to optimize fuel and lube oil treatment in power plant operations. It excels in impurity removal and corrosion prevention, ensuring the longevity and efficiency of turbines and diesel engines. Utilizing high g-force separation, it effectively processes a variety of challenging feedstocks, making it indispensable for cleaning diesel, natural gas, and turbine oils. With a throughput capacity of up to 80 m³/h per unit, it is built for continuous, high-speed, and automated operations. The unitrolplus sensor system provides automatic monitoring and control, maximizing operational reliability and allowing unsupervised use. Engineered with robust materials for durability in harsh environments, the OSE separator also promises lower maintenance with extended service intervals. Tailoring configurations for specific needs, GEA offers engineering support to ensure seamless integration into existing systems.
