Picture 102.jpgFilter Element Inside166 viewsThe filter element consists of a inverted 6 gallon plastic bucket with hundreds of 1/2 holes drilled in it. The bucket is attached to a 1 inch black iron pipe through a hole in the bottom. Two pillow cases are pulled over the bucket and clamped to the 1 inch pipe with hose clamps. Vacuum pulls the oil through the pillow cases trapping all large particles in the drum like a canister filter. The pipe on the left side is the fill tube for the drum.

Once filled we let the oil settle for a month or two, then remove good oil from the upper port on bottom. To remove the water and crud once settled, we use the bottom port only.

Picture 151.jpgInline Heater Controller and Switch128 viewsThis single gang box is welded to the 2 inch T fitting that contains the inlet and 3500W heating element. Under the switch is a standard hot water element temp control, this regulates the oil temp entering the drum filter. The switch allows you to turn off this element while preheating the oil in the drum first. Once up to temp, we open the valves and flip on this preheater.
