Modes of operation:
Deodorising:
The oil is heated under vacuum using direct steam to provide the agitation for good heat transfer. When the desired pressure and temperature are achieved, the direct steam injection is adjusted to impart a high degree of turbulence to the oil, ensuring good physical contact of the steam with the oil. The impurities are carried over in the steam and condensed in the vacuum condenser, the resulting condensate blending with the vacuum pump sealant to be discharged to drain.
Polishing:
After deodorisation, the oil refining process is complete. The oil must therefore be free of any contaminants. For this, it is pumped through a polishing filter which removes those particles, giving a bright oil as product.

Advanced Odor Removal TechnologyUtilizing a dual-stage system of activated carbon and pre-filtration, combined with UV lamp sterilization, the DU-1200 effectively eliminates odors and airborne contaminants. Its design targets industrial and commercial spaces, ensuring high efficiency even at large air volumes.
User-Friendly Maintenance and OperationWith a semi-automatic control panel, the unit is easy to operate and maintain. Manual cleaning is straightforward, and powder-coated mild steel construction ensures longevity. A convenient analog display keeps operating conditions clear at a glance.
Quiet and Efficient Air PurificationOperating below 70 dB, the DU-1200 is suitable for environments where low noise is essential. It maintains a steady performance across a broad temperature range (10C60C) under normal atmospheric pressure, making it adaptable to diverse settings.
FAQs of Deodorising Unit:
Q: How does the DU-1200 Deodorising Unit remove odors from the environment?
A: The DU-1200 utilizes a combination of activated carbon filtration, pre-filtering, and UV lamp technology to effectively break down and capture odor-causing compounds from the air, achieving up to 99% odor removal.
Q: What types of facilities are suitable for installing this deodorising unit?
A: This unit is ideal for industrial and commercial spaces, including factories, processing plants, and large commercial complexes, where efficient, large-scale odor removal is needed.
Q: When should I perform manual cleaning on the filters?
A: Manual cleaning should be conducted regularly based on the level of usage and air quality. Heavy use may require more frequent maintenance to ensure optimal performance and prolong the service life of up to three years.
Q: Where should the unit be installed for best results?
A: The DU-1200 is floor-mounted and should be placed in an area with adequate airflow access, near odor-generating sources, and where its 200 mm inlet and outlet connections can be efficiently utilized.
Q: What is the process for replacing the filters in this unit?
A: To replace the filters, first power off the unit, open the access panel, remove the used pre-filter and activated carbon filter, and install new ones as per the manufacturers guidelines. Regular filter replacement ensures continued high efficiency.
Q: How does the adjustable airflow control benefit my operation?
A: Adjustable airflow control allows you to fine-tune ventilation rates (from 1000 to 2000 m/hr) depending on the odor load and room size, thus maximizing both performance and energy efficiency.
Q: What are the main benefits of using the DU-1200 Deodorising Unit in my facility?
A: The DU-1200 offers high efficiency odor removal, low noise operation, easy maintenance, and long service life. Its robust construction and adjustable airflow ensure reliable operation tailored to your facilitys specific air purification needs.
