The Cyclone tank can be used in all mobile and industrial installations, such as marine and offshore systems.
The oil volume in the tank can be reduced by up to 90% compared to a conventional system. A significantly reduced oil volume has a major positive impact on the environment.
Reducing the oil volume also leads to a reduction in size and weight. In a conventional system, the oil tank is often the largest component and determines the placement of the hydraulic unit. With the Cyclone tank, new design and placement possibilities for the unit are opened up.
Reducing size and weight will also lower purchasing and installation costs.
Oil Deaeration
The Cyclone tank has excellent properties for removing air from the oil, thereby preventing a range of negative effects.
High air content in oil can lead to:
Increase in Oil Temperature
Compression of air generates heat
Faster Oil Degradation and Component Damage
Cavitation - the implosion of released air damages pump inlets, reduces efficiency, and accelerates oil degradation due to high local temperatures
Reduced System Stiffness
Air in the oil creates a spring effect and reduces the system’s controllability
Reduced Lubrication Properties
Air in the oil reduces the oil’s lubricating properties
Noise
The Cyclone tank’s properties, with oil deaeration, prevent the aforementioned negative consequences of air in oil.
The Cyclone tank is also easy to customize. We largely meet the customer’s needs for volume, filtration, cooling, connectivity, and control.
The Cyclone tank is available in 2, 3, and 4 pump station configurations, depending on the customer’s delivery requirements.
