Why do Excavators need to Pay Attention to the Importance of Oil-Water Separators?

Apr. 13, 2020

Some people may not understand the importance of the water separator. We should pay attention to the oil-water separation and drainage of the excavator. These two points are very important for the operation of the equipment. Let Komatsu Bucket Teeth Wholesale analyze these two points and focus on where to start.

Regarding the regular drainage of the excavator: It is recommended to check the water in the oil-water separator every day and drain the water regularly. There is usually a red buoy in the oil-water separator. The density of the buoy is between diesel and water, so it floats on water and is located at the bottom of the diesel.

Alarm about the oil-water separator of the excavator: If the oil-water separator has moisture, it should be discharged in time; if this does not mean that the equipment itself is not damaged, you must check for other defects.
