Coolant Maintenance with the Sump Shark

Sump cleaners use high suction lift to quickly vacuum sludge, chips, and fluid from dirty machine tool sumps. The CECOR Sump Shark® suctions metalworking fluid and sludge into its tank, where an onboard filter separates the solids from the fluid. To discharge, simply switch modes and pump out the filtered fluid.

How will a Sump Shark save time?

Using a CECOR sump cleaner can indeed be a game-changer for your operations. Here are some key benefits:

  1. Save Labor Costs: Instead of spending hours or even days manually cleaning a sump with a pail and shovel, a CECOR sump cleaner can do the job much faster. This high-suction lift equipment vacuums out fluid, sludge, SE15 Sump Cleanerand muck efficiently, reducing the labor hours required.

  2. Reduce Machine Downtime: Machine downtime can be costly. When your machine tool sits idle, you lose valuable production time and money. A CECOR sump cleaner minimizes unexpected downtime by quickly and effectively cleaning the sump, allowing your machines to get back to work sooner


 

 

 

 

How will a Sump Shark sump cleaner save money?

Absolutely, using a sump cleaner like the CECOR Sump Shark® can significantly extend the life of your metalworking fluid. Here’s how:

  1. Filtration of Solids: The sump cleaner filters out chips, swarf, and fines from the coolant. This process involves passing the coolant through a porous material that effectively removes many of the solids.

  2. Cost Savings: By filtering and reusing coolant, you reduce the need to purchase new coolant frequently. This not only saves on the cost of buying coolant but also on disposal costs.

  3. Improved Efficiency: Clean coolant improves the efficiency and lifespan of your machinery, reducing maintenance needs and unexpected downtime

You’re right. Metal chips in the coolant can indeed mar the workpiece. Here’s how a sump cleaner can help:

  1. Chip Removal: One of the primary functions of coolant is to wash metal chips away from the cutting area. However, some chips and fines can remain in the coolant and be recirculated, potentially damaging the workpiece by marring its finish.

  2. Filtration: A sump cleaner filters out these chips and fines, ensurinFiltered metal Chipsg that the coolant remains clean. This filtration process involves passing the coolant through a porous material that removes the solid particles.

  3. Improved Surface Finish: By keeping the coolant free of metal chips, the sump cleaner helps maintain a smooth surface finish on the workpiece, preventing any potential damage from recirculated chips
