Title: ***Centrifuge***
Post by: RIngrey on February 06, 2011, 09:10:08 PM
Who uses a centrifuge? I fancy adding a centrifuge to my set-up for additional polishing down to sub 1 micron. Pretty trick bit of kit and relatively low running costs after the purchase of.

Hi Ringrey, centrifugal filters are really good but they are expensive, there is an alternative and that is to use cff 
from old commercial diesel engines, Scania ones are cleanable but some others use disposable elements which cost about £6 each, so would think that you may have to weigh elements to know when they are dud
