How does it work?
It uses a pneumatic pump to crush the filter. It removes up to 95% of used oil while crushing filters down to 20% of the original size. As it is crushing the filter, it drains and collects the residual oil. It works with standard oil filters and one gallon cans. Featuring a solid steel construction and a safety interlock door system, that air powered oil filter crusher, as its name indicates, operates 100% by air power.
What is it used for?
It is mostly used to prepare prepares bulky items (oil filters) for scrap metal recycling. It is also a safety tool because it keeps waste oil from collecting on the floor. The filters are flattened dry, so there is no excess oil leaking onto the floor to cause a slip hazard.
What return on investment can we expect if we purchase an air powered oil filter crusher?
First, your facility will greatly benefit from the financial savings of oil disposal costs. The government classifies oil filters as hazardous waste. Anything in this category costs more money than you want to spend to dispose of. Penalties are charged to you if your oil filters contain traces of used oil. The first thing you can count on from using a filter crusher is not ever having to pay these penalties again.
The air powered oil filter crusher can also help you benefit financially from scrap metal recycling. Oil free cans can be taken into any recycling center and turned into cash.
There are also some very real benefits that come to your organization that may be difficult to specifically quantify, but that nonetheless represent clear advantages.
One is the improvement in facility control that results from space consolidation. A well-ordered facility is easier to inventory and work within. Process flow goes more smoothly and production increases. Getting rid of the litter that used filters and oil cans commonly create is a good step forward in more efficient space management.
Also, getting trace oil off the floor makes the workplace safer. One slip and one injury can cost a company a good employee and a great amount of money in workers compensation. The liability factor that the air powered oil filter crusher eliminates makes it a preventative tool of protecting businesses assets against very real negatives that often unexpectedly challenge businesses.
