Used Filtration Equipment Can Be Economically Justified

Used filtration equipment can be the answer for projects where a plant wants to enhance the clarity level of an existing system serving metalworking operations. Many times the cost of new equipment prevents a program from going forward because of the initial price is so high that the return on investment would take a long time. With reconditioned used filtration equipment costing only a fraction of new equipment the program can be successful because the economics are easier to justify.

The same situation exists when a plant wants to add filtration to a line where none exists.

The goal, in both cases, is to give the coolant a longer life and reduce the number of dumps that are made due to dirty coolant. Dumping is usually the most expensive step and by reducing the dumping frequency, money can be saved. Although it is not as pretty as a new unit, a reconditioned used filter can perform its tasks to reduce dumping just as good as a new device.

The term used filtration equipment is loosely used to include any device which separates solids from liquids, or liquids from liquids. Harrigan Solutions inventories used pressure filters, vacuum filters, centrifuges, oil/water separators, and magnetic separators. The units are reconditioned and designed to fit into a scheme where they can be retrofitted on an existing system.

Harrigan Solutions has a team of engineers and technicians who will provide aid in selecting and sizing the proper unit for the installation needing better clarity.

In addition to selling the used filtration equipment, Harrigan Solutions offers leasing and rental programs. These options would help with the cash flow on a monthly basis. They also offer service agreements if a customer want assistance to maintain the equipment. Service agreements can range from just monitoring the performance to actually maintaining the units.
