<p>An apparatus (10) for renewing coolant fluid and other similar liquids. The fluid is fed into an entry compartment (28) of the apparatus housing (12) and made to pass, thereafter, through a plate separator (30) disposed obliquely within the housing (12). The liquid passes between a plurality of plates (34) and exits from the separator (30) at a bottom end thereof. The liquid exits from the separator (30) into a processing compartment (32). Thereafter, it flows over the upper edge (58) of a weir wall (60) into a clean tank (56). While being processed, the liquid is treated by a biochemical bacteria retardant agent metered into the liquid from a source (82) through a line (84) by which it is conducted. Renewed fluid is recovered and held in a service tank (74) or returned to a sump.</p> |
