Guardian Coolant Recycling System
Application in Review
BREK Manufacturing Co., Aerospace Parts Manufacturer
Kalamazoo, Mich., February, 2015 – Featured in Modern Machine Shop Magazine. The more chips a company cuts, the better. But once the output reaches a certain volume, it may be time to look beyond traditional disposal methods toward more efficient systems. New chip processing equipment, linked with coolant filtration systems, can raise the value of scrap metal going to the recycler, reduce material handling and maintenance concerns, filter coolants for reuse in machine tools, and help a company achieve ISO 14001 environmental compliance.

Coolant Monitoring
Optional coolant monitoring and management maximizes coolant savings. Order the Guardian with the AC³ or the Coolant Manager for complete automation of your coolant recycling process
AC³ – A fully automated coolant concentration controller, the AC³ will maintain set concentration levels within +/- 0.5% accuracy. The exclusive logic built into the controller, allows more or less concentrate to enter the discharge flow of the Guardian system. This comprehensive system provides the necessary intelligence to accurately and automatically inject new concentrate only as needed to maintain optimum ratios and achieve maximum tool life.
Coolant Manager – Control bacteria safely and effectively with the PRAB Coolant Manager, an Ozone injection module designed to prevent coolant rancidity. The device, which is the size of small brief case, a single Coolant Manager can maintain a sump containing up to 3,000 gallons of coolant. Ozone is the natural choice for coolant bacteria control, eliminating the need for biocide. The Coolant Manager works with all common types of coolant; water, soluble oils, semi synthetic coolants, synthetic coolants, and alkaline cleaners.
- Process up to 1,500 gallons of coolant per hour; larger capacity systems available.
- Remove tramp oils and reduce new coolant purchases up to 75%.
- Meet tighter coolant clarity tolerances with optional polishing filter.
- Extend tool life and save 25% in new tool purchases with Guardian-clarified coolants.
- Remove free-floating oils to 0.1% or less.
- Continuous overflow prevents rancidity.
- Purge coalescing media of solids and sludge with automatic air sparger.
The Guardian coolant recycling system uses three separate principles to recondition metalworking coolants commonly used in individual machine tools:
- Gravity settling
- Filtration
- Coalescence
It is equally effective for washing compounds and other water-soluble mixtures where tramp oils and suspended solids detract from performance.
