The service-friendly Varnish Elimination Unit (VEU) is designed for use with mineral oils and is particularly effective at removing oil-aging products (varnish). Varnish takes the form of oil-insoluble aging products which settle in the tank, in valves, or in bearings. These can be filterable gels or solid paint-type deposits.

This easy to service ion exchange unit of the IXU series is used for conditioning flame resistant, HFD-R-based hydraulic and lubrication fluids. They effectively remove acidic products of decomposition caused by  hydrolysis and/or oxidation of the fluid.

Schroeder’s Compact Varnish Elimination Unit, or VEU Compact for short, is an effective, small form-factor solution to varnish and oil-aging products in hydraulic systems. Modern hydraulic systems are more prone to varnish due to several factors ranging from oxidation to contaminants which can cause oil degredation. The VEU compact can help maintain equipment cleanliness by removing these issues.

Features and Benefits

• All in one system solution
• Removes oil degredation products (solids & gel-like Varnish)
• Improves system reliability and performance
• Reduces deposits on hydraulic valves
• Increases fluid life

The user-friendly Varnish Mitigation Unit is designed to condition mineral oils. The VMU is particularly effective at removing oil aging products (varnish) from mineral oils. Varnish takes the form of insoluble oil aging products which settle in reservoirs, valves and bearings. These can be non-filterable gels or solid paint-type deposits. The VMU series offline filtration system removes varnish through adsorption on an active filter element surface.
