Benefits of installing CJC® Filtration
- Protect your investment
- Reduce risk of steam turbine control system repairs
- Reduce risk of unplanned breakdowns, outages and penalties
- Optimise availability and output of the power plant
- Reduced maintenance costs
CJC® Filtration Technologies include a range of specialty to CJC® Filter Inserts designed to remove moisture and maintain acid levels in ester-based fluids commonly used in Turbine Control Systems.
To reduce the risk of fire Power Plants uses non-flammable fluids such as Phosphate Ester in their hydraulic systems, like conventional mineral-based oils keeping the fluid free particles but more importantly free from moisture. Ester based fluids are derived from a chemical reaction to remove water from an acid and alcohol mix, esterification, when moisture in even the smallest amount is introduced the reverse of the process, hydrolysis begins and acid levels increase. CJC® Filter Specialty Inserts include both Molecular Sieve material to maintain very low moisture content or ION Exchange media for correcting increased acid levels*, both available with CJC® Fine Filtration Insert cores for particle contamination protecting the Turbine Control System from damage caused by contaminated lube oil.

CJC® Fine Filters are offline oil filtration solutions with integrated circulating pumps for off-line installation. The filters are recognized around the world as highly efficient purification systems for applications involving hydraulic oil, lubrication oil, gear oil, quenching oil, phosphate esters and more.
CJC® Fine Filters are ideal for controlling oil contamination levels for particles, water and degradation products (oxidation resin/sludge, varnish).
CJC® Filter Separators are offline oil filtration solutions / oil separators, combining fine filtration with water separation all in one unit, with an integrated circulating pump. They are designed for use in applications containing hydraulic oil, diesel fuel, lubrication oil, etc., in which water ingress is a constant or recurrent problem.
CJC® Filter Separators remove water by coalescence and at the same time minimize oil contamination levels of particles and oil degradation products (oxidation resin/sludge, varnish).
