EXAIR's Model 6198 Chip TrapperTM

Chip Trapper^TM offers a fast, easy way to clean chips, swarf and shavings out of used coolants and other liquids. The Chip Trapper vacuums the coolant or liquid that is filled with debris and traps all the solids in a reusable filter bag. Only the liquid pumps back out. It is ideal for use on machines with sumps, parts washers, tanks and storage containers of contaminated liquids. Machine tools discharge chips and shavings into the coolant sump that can restrict coolant flow and clog the coolant nozzles. This results in heat damage to the part and expensive tooling. A half day of lost production is spent unclogging the coolant nozzles, cleaning the machine, and replacing the coolant. Regular cleaning of the coolant sump with the Chip Trapper removes the unwanted solids from the coolant to eliminate this very costly problem. It also dramatically cuts new coolant costs and disposal fees since the coolant that used to last only six weeks can now last 6 months or more. In a matter of several minutes, the Chip Trapper cleans up the coolant by eliminating the chips and rancid smell caused by bacteria growth. Chip Trapper is easy to use since there is no mechanical change over required to fill or empty the drum (uses the simple turn of a knob and directional valve). The reusable filter bag is easily removed when full. The $1,275 price is a fraction that of the big, bulky sump cleaners that cost thousands of dollars.
