Recover, filter and reuse cutting oil and swarf straight from the machine tool — in a single pass.
The RAM OIL 250 is a mobile industrial vacuum engineered for one demanding job on the shop floor: clearing tanks and sumps of lubricating and cutting oil mixed with metal chips. It vacuums the oil-and-swarf mixture, separates the solids, and either returns the filtered oil to the tank for reuse or holds it for clean disposal — turning a messy, manual clean-down into a single controlled operation.
A tipping hopper and grid basket trap the swarf at the drum inlet, while a 150-micron polypropylene filter catches the finer particles, so the oil coming through is clean enough to put straight back to work. An onboard electric pump discharges the filtered liquid, and a non-return valve lets the machine draw in and discharge at the same time, without stopping. An electric level probe halts suction automatically when the drum fills, protecting the suction unit.
Built by Depureco in sturdy painted steel and driven by a maintenance-free side channel blower, the RAM OIL 250 is made to keep running in a hard-working shop. It is offered in more than one configuration, with a 3 kW or 5.5 kW motor to match your duty cycle and throughput. CE marked and designed for ordinary industrial areas, it is engineered for a long, low-maintenance service life that keeps the total cost of ownership down.
The suction unit is a side channel blower with direct coupling between motor and impeller. The turbine is equipped with a safety valve to ensure continuous, maintenance-free work. A metal silencer is included as standard in the turbine to ensure a low noise level.
A tipping hopper is installed above the vacuum cleaner’s large container. The collected liquid passes through a liquid filter with an efficiency of 150µ and a grid basket, which trap chips and simplify their disposal. In this way, even the smallest solid particles can be separated, making the filtered liquid suitable for reuse.
An electric level probe immediately stops suction when the liquid exceeds a certain container fill level, protecting the suction unit.
An electric pump is installed inside the container and allows the extracted and filtered liquids to be discharged quickly. Thanks to the non-return valve, it is possible to suction and discharge at the same time, without stopping the machine.
