Clean & Clear’s OSD™ (Oil/Water Separation Device) product line, along with our CMS™ (Condensate Management System), provides filtration systems for various industrial applications:
Separating Air
Compressor Condensate
Clean & Clear's OSD™ and CMS™ technology have been
proven effective in removing lubricant carryover from water condensate produced
by equipment such as:
| Air compressors. |
| Air compressor after-coolers. |
| Air dryers. |
| Air/Oil demisters. |
| Air system drop legs. |
| Coalescing filters. |
The Clean & Clear system separates the oily residue from air compressor condensate, allowing that residue to be disposed of properly, while the water can be safely discharged or reused for non-drinking purposes, thereby reducing the costs typically incurred in disposing of the condensate while also protecting the environment.

the unit on the right is the Clean & Clear OSD™.
The OSD™ and CMS™ must be used together as a system in applications such as separating petroleum and synthetic lubricants/coolants from water condensate, filtering CNC coolant, and filtering water-based parts washer fluid.
The Clean & Clear Filtration System is designed for ease of use.
Little to No Floor Space Required. The Clean & Clear Filtration System requires little to no floor space. It can be floor standing, but it is also designed to be easily installed on an equipment chassis, or on a nearby wall.
Easy Installation. The CMS™ and OSD™ Filter are truly "plug and play." When filtering water condensate, simply plumb the incoming condensate line to the CMS™, snap the CMS/OSD interconnect tube into place, plumb the condensate discharge line from the OSD™ Filter, and plug the CMS™ into a standard 115v wall outlet. When filtering water based fluids and potable water, simply plumb the incoming supply and outgoing discharge lines directly to the OSD™ Filter.
The OSD™ Filter Has No Electrical Consumption & No Moving Parts. The Clean & Clear OSD™ Filter has no moving parts; it does not use electricity; and other than changing the filter, it does not require any maintenance.
Easy Visual Inspection. A
red/green maintenance indicator is installed on the top of each Clean &
Clear OSD™ Filter. This simple
maintenance indicator makes it easy to determine when the OSD™ Filter needs
replacement.
Low Maintenance. The CMS™ is permanent, and requires only routine maintenance; the OSD™ Filter is replaceable.
No Special Tools Required For Filter Replacement. No tools are required for a filter change. The lubricant/coolant remains in the filter, eliminating the possibility of spillage or mess. Of course, the spent filter should be disposed of in accordance with the prevailing local, state, or federal regulations.
ISO
I4000 CompliantThe Clean & Clear OSD™ + CMS™ Filtration System removes both petroleum and synthetic lubricants and coolants from air compressor condensate to safe levels required by Federal and State Clean Water Regulations (below 15 ppm) and ISO I4000 environmental standards.
The Clean & Clear OSD™ utilizes patented new technology that is extremely efficient at trapping petroleum and synthetic lubricants and coolants while water flows cleanly through the OSD™ filter. The OSD™ Filter removes all types of super refined petroleum, petroleum diesters, PAOs, polyglycols, PAGs, and liquid silicone fluids including: Sullube32, 24KT Fluid, Ultra Coolant, Aeon Fluids, QuinSyn, GA, FG, 4K, 8K, Roto Fluids, and more.

In order to ensure proper filtration, it is important that the influent be properly metered when delivered to the OSD™. Consequently, a critical component in the Clean & Clear filtration system is the CMS™.
The CMS™ is a collection reservoir with an air driven pump to provide a controlled flow of condensate liquid to the OSD™. The CMS™ has been specifically designed and manufactured to work in concert with the Clean & Clear OSD™, and delivers the correct amount of influent at the correct pressure to the OSD™ for maximum efficiency.
The CMS™ is designed for use with any style drain and with multiple influent sources (e.g., air compressors, air dryers, air filters, air receiving tanks, drop legs, etc.). Any compressed air that may enter the CMS™ from timed electric solenoid drains is safely diffused with no fluid mess.
The
Clean & Clear CMS™ defuses and separates oily influent via a multi-step
process. As influent
enters the CMS™ sump pump, an internal stainless steel float senses the
presence of the influent and starts the pump cycle. The CMS™ Turbo Separator spins the oily condensate/compressed
air to the outside wall of the CMS™ where the condensate collects.
Liquid droplets and decompressed air flow through the diffuser plate to the
outer separation chamber. Decompressed air changes direction from the
outer chamber to the inner chamber and is released to the atmosphere via the
diffuser top plate. Condensate collects in the outer chamber and fills the
inner chamber via the scavenger line. Dirt, rust, and scale collect in the
outer chamber preventing debris carryover to the inner chamber, CMS™ pump, or
OSD™. Condensate from the inner chamber is drawn to the CMS™ pump via
inner chamber scavenge tube to be delivered to the OSD™. The
positive-displacement pump sends a fixed amount of influent at the proper
pressure and volume to the OSD™ each time the piston cycles. The
pulsating pressure created helps move the influent down through the OSD™
filter media evenly to maximize the life and efficiency of the OSD™.
The
Clean & Clear CMS™ is a wet sump system with a 12 gallon sump
capacity, 2 directional changes of fluid, turbo inlet diffuser, pump, stand and
controls mounted and wired, only one connection (a 115V power cord), and the CMS™
to OSD™ inter-connecting tube is provided.
Benefits of the CMS™ include:
|
As a wet sump with two directional changes, the CMS™ designed to drop out contaminants (e.g., rust, dirt, scale, etc.) in the CMS™ separation tank, thus eliminating pump wear and failure from these contaminants. The wet sump greatly improves pump life, pump performance, OSD™ filter life and OSD™ filter performance. |
|
The Turbo inlet diffuser on CMS™, with integral rust and slag separation chamber, allows for any type of condensate drain, or multiple condensate drains be plumbed together into one CMS™ without mist or sprinkle of oily condensate from vent. |
|
Two separation chambers allow for cooling and pre-separation of non-emulsified lubricant, extending OSD™ life and performance. |
|
Integral floor stand, pump, float switch with lower center of gravity, resulting in more stable installation. |
|
Pump and float switch is mounted, wired and plumbed on integral CMS floor stand with interconnecting flexible tube to OSD™, one 115 volt connection - essentially "plug and play” |
|
Made of a heavy duty molded plastic housing pressure tested to 195 psig. |
|
100% corrosion free construction. |
The CMS™ and OSD™ Filter have a small foot print, just 16" x 16" each. The CMS™ has a large 12 gallon collection sump pump.

The CMS™ is a one-time purchase, but the OSD™ Filter requires periodic
replacement. The OSD™ comes equipped with a maintenance gauge that
shows green when the filter is OK, and
red when it needs to be replaced. Field
experience shows 10-14 months is typical OSD™ Filter life.
No moving parts and no tools required for OSD™ filter change. All hazardous wastes remain in the OSD™ Filter for easy and safe disposal. Change OSD™ Filter when replacement indicator moves from green to red. No spills, no mess, no contact with collected hazardous waste.

Following is a list of the various laws and regulations that pertain to the disposal
of oily condensate (as of March 13, 2002):
|
Federal Water Pollution Control Act (USC Title 33, Section 1321 et.seq.). |
|
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (USC Title 42 Section 6903 et.seq.). |
|
Clean Water Act (USC Title 33 Section 1251 et.seq.). |
|
Oil Pollution Recovery Act of 1990 (USC Title 33 Section 2702-2761). |
|
Pollution Prevention Act (USC Title 42 Section 13101 et.seq.). |
|
Toxic Substance Control Act (USC Title 15 Section 2601 et.seq.). |
While all these statutes and the rules promulgated there under differ in some respects, they all prohibit the disposal of petroleum based solvents and synthetic based solvents into storm sewers, surface water, septic systems or into the ground.
If there is a oily sheen (approximately 10PPM or 10 mg/liter) it is a
violation of these statutes. The
fines can be as high as $10,000 per day plus clean up costs and criminal
penalties for willful violations.
Most states have adopted the same standards with their pollution control acts and are mandated under federal law to enforce these standards. Inspections and permits are required in most states.
In addition, each local sewage disposal facility and regional waste
disposal districts have adopted standards for the discharge of oily condensate
into the sewage system. It varies from district to district, but our research
indicates that the most common standards are 20ppm to 50ppm with both petroleum
as well as synthetic based lubricants being classified as hazardous wastes.
TOPConfirm condensate drain valves are operating properly and discharging into sump of CMS™ (is there any water in the sump?). If using timed electric drains have them set so they are only open for 1-2 seconds maximum.
Confirm electrical power (115/1/60)
Verify
maintenance gauge on OSD™ is in the “Green”. If gauge is in the “Red,” replace OSD™
Filter.
If pump still does not work, consult factory.
