SMART FLUID
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Reduce Manual Fluid Handling
Automates the collection, storage, filtration, and transfer of separated coolant, oil, process fluids, washdown wastewater, and other collected liquids, reducing manual draining, fluid handling. Helps reduce operator involvement in repetitive fluid handling tasks
Enhanced Protection
Helps prevent overflow events through optional level sensors, alarms, pump controls, and equipment interlocks.
Engineered for Flexible Performance
Supports flexible fluid discharge options, including transfer to totes, drains, sumps, process tanks, wastewater systems, or centralized collection points.
Can be integrated with a washdown pre-filtration module to manage fluid generated during automatic cleaning cycles.
Configurable with settling tanks, storage tanks, pumps, filters, valves, level sensors, electrical panels, and PLC-based controls.
Optional filtration can be added to remove solids or condition fluid before transfer.
PLC logic can be configured for pump control, level monitoring, alarm outputs, remote signals, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions about the ARO
An engineered industrial air filtration system is a custom-configured air purification solution designed to control dust, mist, fumes, or airborne contaminants in manufacturing environments. Unlike standalone units, engineered systems are sized based on airflow requirements, machine configuration, and facility layout to ensure consistent performance and regulatory compliance.
Modular air filtration systems use scalable core units that can be stacked or configured based on airflow demand. Centralized systems rely on large ducted collectors serving multiple machines. Modular systems provide flexibility and phased scalability, while centralized systems are typically designed for fixed large-scale facilities.
Sizing an industrial air filtration system requires calculating total airflow demand in cubic feet per minute (CFM), evaluating the number of machines, identifying contaminant type, and assessing enclosure containment. Proper sizing ensures mist, dust, or fumes are captured at the source without overloading the filtration system.
A facility should consider upgrading its air filtration system when visible haze is present, filters clog frequently, airflow drops below design capacity, or regulatory exposure limits become difficult to maintain. Expansion of production capacity is another common trigger for system upgrades.
Engineered industrial air purification systems can remove oil mist, coolant mist, combustible dust, welding fumes, smoke, volatile organic compounds, and fine particulate matter. System configuration depends on particle size, chemical composition, airflow volume, and facility layout.
