About FRANKE-Filter
FRANKE-Filter is a specialized German company with more than 30 years of experience in the development, design and manufacture of oil mist separators for rotating machinery. The product portfolio includes tailor-made filtration systems for gas turbines and steam turbines in power plants, water turbines, gas and diesel engines as well as compressors and vacuum pumps. The microfiber-supported filter cartridges achieve a separation efficiency of 99.99 % at particle sizes of 0.1 µm, enable maintenance-free operation of up to 30,000 operating hours and keep the residual oil content of the exhaust air at 1–5 mg/m³. The company has its own CAD department for conceptualization, design and development as well as modern surface treatment and manufactures customer-specific solutions for individual applications. Customers include the power plant and turbine industry, the fertilizer industry (ammonia plants) and the oil and gas sector including FPSO facilities; the systems are delivered worldwide, including to Brazil, Mexico and Austria.
