ICARUS

LOSMA ICARUS oil mist extractors are designed for individual purification systems. The ICARUS is installed next to the machine, either nearby or directly on the roof. It is suitable for machine tools that use emulsion as a cutting fluid, as well as for machines that generate certain types of fumes, such as electroerosion machines. The oil mist present in the machine cabin is extracted. It is filtered through various filter stages and then returned to the atmosphere via a high-efficiency HEPA13 post-filter.

In addition, the negative pressure generated by the ICARUS during oil mist extraction helps to contain polluted air in the cabin. It is important to take into account the spray pressure of the machine’s pumps and the application. When the machine tool is equipped with high-pressure spray pumps, the resulting high atomisation requires the use of a pre-filtration module. The XGUARD pre-filter acts as a settling chamber, reducing the speed and trapping micro-oil droplets, fine particles and volatile chips. The coalesced micro-oil droplets are drained. They can be returned either to the machine sump or to a separate sump.

For fumes, the final HEPA filter is replaced by an activated carbon filter. The ICARUS comes standard with a pressure gauge to monitor filter clogging.

Installing an ICARUS oil mist extractor allows you to:

• To clean up the work area,
• Limit oil deposits on surfaces
• Preserve equipment

The ICARUS range is available with different flow rates:

• ICARUS, for production applications working with emulsions. 600 to 1600 M³/h

ICARUS oil mist extractors can be adapted for a wide range of machine tools, such as:

• Numerically controlled machining centre,
