A heavy duty two-stage centrifugal pump on the SVF Series Grit Guard coolant filter provides a nominal flow rate of 2.5 gpm. Large easy to access settlement tank increases efficiency and filter element life. PF filter cartridges are available for 11 micron, 18 micron, and 60 micron chips in both oil and oil/waterbase compatible configurations. The magnetic separator option is capable of handling chips up to 100 micron size. The Grit Guard filter is ideal for most grinding, lapping and honing operations.
