<p>Apparatus (10) for separating solids from oil comprises a housing (12) having a housing inlet (24) and a housing outlet (150). A rotatable drum spinner (50) has an inlet (116) and an outlet (57) at the opposite end thereof. A motor drives the spinner. A first pump (74) delivers oil to an inlet (112) of a second, disc, pump (120) concentric and rotatable with the spinner (50). The disc pump accelerates oil rotationally to the speed of rotation of the spinner and delivers the accelerated oil to the inlet of the spinner. Oil rotated by the spinner experiences centripetal acceleration so that denser particulate impurities (59) in the oil settle against the wall (58) of the spinner. Clean oil exist the spinner outlet an is directed therefrom to said housing outlet.</p> |
