Tired of filtering by hand? Bag filters got you down? Tired of making a mess?
Want a better way to filter oil? Then it's time for a centrifuge!!
We've teamed up with WVO Designs
to bring you the simple-to-use and simple-to-clean Raw Power Centrifuge.
This centrifuge was designed by a mechanical engineer from the ground up to excel
at filtering waste vegetable oil in an easy manner. It's easy to use, easy to clean, and
best of all, it works exceptionally well!
See How The Raw Power Centrifuge Works!
Easy To Use And A Lot Less Mess!
The Raw Power Centrifuge was designed specifically with ease of use in mind. By attaching the motor directly to the rotor
there's no need for high pressure pumps or pressure gauges. Because there's practically no pressure, it also means no bursting
hoses spraying oil everywhere. Instead, you get incredibly
clean, filtered oil that's ready to use in a matter of hours!
Up To 6,000 RPM's Means Awesome Cleaning Power!
Opt for the "Extreme" package and you'll be able to clean even the nastiest of oil in style!.
With the power of up to 6,000 RPM's at your control, your dirty oil doesn't stand a chance!
To test just how good 6,000 RPM's is, we picked up some of the nastiest oil that was
obtained by an oil collector from a local McDonalds restaurant. The stuff looked really dark and smelled disgusting!
We hooked the centrifuge up to a carboy of the nasty, smelly stuff, fired it up, and
let it rip! We let the centrifuge work it's magic on 5 gallons of the oil and compared the filtered vs non-filtered
samples of this smelly stuff.
To check the results, we grabbed a 100 micron bucket filter
and put it in a 5 gallon bucket. We then poured the centrifuged oil through the filter to see just how much of the gunk it
had removed. It poured right through the filter like water (see picture on left).
Then we checked the bucket filter for any sediment and found nothing but an oily filter (middle picture below). Just to be sure
the filter wasn't plugged, we put it back in place and poured the rest of the centrifuged oil through it. Again, it just flowed
through it like water! Talk about impressive!
Next, we grabbed some of the unfiltered oil and poured it through the same filter to see just how nasty the oil really was.
Get this! It wouldn't even go through our filter! (see picture on right) It just sat on top of the filter screen
plugging it immediately! We tried scraping the filter and sloshing the oil around,
but all we could get was a few drips and then it'd clog it right back up. We were amazed at the difference!

Fully Adjustable Flow Rate
You can vary the oil flow from 0 to 30 gallons per hour.
Speed the flow rate up and you get clean oil in record time.
Slow it down and the oil will be filtered with extreme precision.
Flowing at just 10 gallons per hour can yield you oil that's filtered clear down to 1 Micron!

Based on the test we did with 5 gallons of oil filtered in about 20 minutes, we estimate we were running it through
the centrifuge at 15 gallons per hour. Our test was based on a gravity feed with a carboy about 2 feet above the
centrifuge and we didn't have any appreciable pressure pushing down on the oil, in fact we were fighting a vacuum
on the carboy as the oil flowed out of it. You could easily get much higher flow rates simply with a larger
volume of oil or by using a transfer pump.
With it's ability to be pump fed or gravity fed, you can literally filter hundreds of gallons of oil quickly
and easily and with relatively little effort on your part. Just connect the centrifuge to an oil input, pipe
the good & bad oil output to the appropriate containers, turn the centrifuge on and let the oil flow! The centrifuge
will do the rest.
Cleaning The Raw Power Centrifuge Is A Breeze!
This centrifuge is unique because the centrifuge rotor can easily be removed
with it's quick disconnect fitting. This makes cleaning the unit an absolute breeze!
Just loosen the quick connect fitting, pull the rotor, clean it out, put it back in,
tighten it back down and you're back in business!
Inline Heat Makes A World Of Difference!
As everyone knows, heating up waste vegetable oil makes it flow better. The folks at WVO Designs know this
and have designed one heck of a sweet inline oil heating attachment that works extremely well with the Raw Power
Centrifuge.

Available in a 120 volt 1,000 Watt or 220 volt 1500 Watt version, this little inline heater packs a punch!
The element comes complete with an integrated thermostat that can be pre-set to your desired temperature.
The housing mounts right to the centrifuge and includes a cover for the element and a heavy duty hose to
connect it to the centrifuge lid. Because the oil flows from the bottom up, the element is sure to always
be bathed in oil when filtering which means the oil stays hotter.

In testing, we set ours at 150° F and it easily kept the oil up to temperature even when flowing at
15 gallons per hour. We especially liked the integrated thermostat! Talk about one slick unit! We thought
of several other uses that it could be used for outside of just pre-heating oil for centrifuging. It comes
with all the right mounting hardware and even a safety cap for the top to keep the electrical components tucked
out of the way. We think it's well worth the additional cost. You'll love it the moment you power it up!
