What are the features to look for in an oil mist collector?
A. The first consideration is wet vs. dry operation. A dry oil mist collector consumes single-use filters and when they’re saturated, you replace them. Operations and disposal costs are high, and continuous. A wet oil mist collector has cleanable filters that won’t degrade over time. Also, look for an oil mist collector that allows you to re-use the oils or coolants collected. A low pressure design (10″ or less w.g.) minimized energy use.
