A centrifugal filter separator system operable to separate from oil under pressure solid contaminants, by depositing them on the internal wall of a rotating drum, powered by reaction jet nozzles, while also separating water from oil and extracting it from the rotating drum through a water extraction circuit. A water-oil mixture from the water extraction circuit is passed through a pressurized gravity type separator, from which the separated oil is returned, on a continuous basis, back to the centrifugal filter separator, while the water is retained in the gravity type separator. Flow of the mixture of water and oil through the extraction circuit is regulated in respect to change of viscosity of the extracted liquid, but relatively independent of pressure within the rotating drum for maximum efficiency of the gravity type separator.
