Brink Oil Mist Systems are highly efficient, mist removal devices and integrated packages that are designed to control problems created by condensed machinery lubrication oils that form a “smoke” or “fog” when vented to ambient surroundings. Typically these surroundings are enclosed rooms or compartments that house gear boxes, turbines, compressors, other high speed rotating equipment and vacuum pumps.

Heat build up from energy transfer, friction and mechanical shearing causes lubrication oils to release hydrocarbon organics. These quickly condense into sub-micron aerosol clouds of smoke and oil mist. Typically rotating equipment is vented to release the back pressure caused by the combination of oil mist generation and windage. Lacking a reliable and efficient removal device, these mists become airborne and respirable, may be drawn into HVAC systems, other equipment air intakes and they eventually coat confined infrastructure, equipment and walkways creating an unhealthy and unsafe workplace environment.
