Emulsified water
Separators remove free water only; emulsified water stays and the oil clouds again.

Marine oil filtration for lube, gear, diesel and bilge water
At sea you cannot order a spare mid-voyage. We fit CJC filtration for lube, gear and stern tube oil, hydraulics, diesel and bilge water.
What goes wrong
Salt water ingress
Chlorides speed corrosion and additive loss, and the damage outlasts the water.
Diesel quality on long voyages
Water and microbial growth in storage tanks block filters in service.
Bilge water discharge limits
Discharge is regulated, so oil content must come down first.
The cost of failure at sea
A failure in transit costs far more than ashore. Add spare oil carried, disposal and crew hours lost.
The business caseWhat we fit
Water comes in continuously, so the rate of entry sets the size of the unit.
Filter separators
Free and emulsified water plus particles in one pass.
Lube and gear oil fine filters
Continuous depth filtration on main, auxiliary and stern tube systems.
Diesel and bilge water units
Fuel polishing for storage tanks and oil removal from bilge water.
Project Profile
Stern tube and gear oil system, marine vessel
Stern tube oil repeatedly above the water limit. A filter separator removed the emulsified water and the drain and refill routine stopped.

Common questions
Can equipment be installed while the vessel is in service?
add
Usually yes. The units connect to existing tank points and we work to class requirements.
Does the media cope with salt water contamination?
add
It removes the water but cannot undo existing corrosion. Finding where the water gets in matters most.
What about spares availability?
add
Inserts are worth carrying aboard. We state the consumption rate so you stock the right number.
