Snapdragon Deluxe

Snapdragon Completes Your Oil Removal Objectives

Now includes air pump over-pressurizing protection plus DOT-rated hose fittings

Extend the life of your coolant, tools, and workers

Prevent excessive mist formation

Intake attachments available for every application

Diaphragm pumps pulls from up to 20 feet

All components visible for easy inspection and maintenance

Snapdragon Deluxe, Model #: FM60-5114

A	Translucent tank with spin-welded, bulkhead, leak-proof fittings and crush-resistant hoses
B	500µ stainless steel, reusable prefilter removes floating chips which degrade your coolant and may harm the pump
C	Towmotor lift wings allow for easy maneuverability to upper plant levels or over floor obstructions
D	Pump handles below ground applications. Average pump life is 7-10 years!
E	Durable, powder-coated steel frame transports all components where needed
F	Tank empties in minutes and cleans up quickly
G	Baffled Anti-Turbulence System (BATS) removes entrained air before oil enters the tank, improving separation efficiency up to 20%
H	Unique coalescing media increases oil collecting surface area tenfold, improving separation process AND never needs replacement
I	Gravity-fed clean coolant return

Snapdragon ADAPT, Model #: FM60-5711

All Deluxe model features PLUS

J	Ultrafiltration after oils are removed, preventing oil re-emulsification. Removes fines for tight tolerances (±.0002) and smooth surface finish (4 Ra or lower) applications.
K	Pulse Dampening Capsule (PDC) steadies flow of separated oils for fastest possible skimming rate.
L	Internal Oil Discharge Skimmer (IODS) collects oil inside the tank for virtually coolant-free disposal.
M	Overfill Prevention line eliminates possibility of tank overfilling and coolant floods
N	Pressurized coolant return delivers clean coolant against gravity to a holding tank.

Snapdragon Sierra™, Model #: FM60-7309

Coolant types have various oil-rejection capabilities. A separation test of your blend will verify its ability to reject tramp oils especially as it ages. The Snapdragon will remove oils which naturally gravity separate in 20 minutes (while operating at 1 gpm).

*Snapdragon series comes standard with air diaphragm pump, electric diaphragm pumps are available. Call for details.
