Qualifying & Efficiencies of LAKOS Separator
- The 2 Most Important Factors for Utilizing Separator Technology…
- Is the Liquid being pumped?
- Do the Contaminants/ Solids Settle?
- 3 Minutes settling test:
It is a simple test anybody can carry out in their plant/factory. Take a liquid which you want to clear from suspended solids, in a transparent glass or transparent bottle. Shake it properly and put the same on flat surface for 3 minutes. If solids settle at the bottom of glass/bottle, LAKOS Separator works on it positively. You may remove the solids with LAKOS Separator.
