Lube Oil Unit (LOU)

At HTAC, we specialize in lube oil systems designed to provide efficient lubrication and cooling for critical equipment such as steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, and pumps. Our lube oil units are built to meet the stringent requirements of API 614, ASME, and TEMA standards, ensuring optimal performance in industrial environments.

Key Features of Our Lube Oil Unit

HTAC’s lube oil systems are engineered for rotating machinery to extend the life of components by reducing friction and wear. By supplying clean, cool oil, our systems help maintain smooth operation, minimize downtime, and prevent mechanical failure. Each lube oil console includes components like oil reservoirs, oil coolers, oil filters, and oil pumps, all designed to work together seamlessly, ensuring efficient oil circulation and heat dissipation.

Advanced Design and Materials

Our lube oil units are manufactured using high-grade materials such as carbon steel and stainless steel, providing durability and resistance to corrosion. The systems are designed using advanced software like HTRI, ANSYS, CAD, and SW-6 to optimize performance. With oil flow rates ranging from 4 L/min to 2055 L/min, and pressure ratings up to 35.5 Bar, HTAC’s lube oil systems are suitable for a variety of applications, from power plants to industrial compressors.

Applications and Configuration

HTAC’s lube oil systems are designed for a wide range of industrial applications, including power generation, oil & gas, and petrochemicals. The lube oil system in a steam turbine plays a critical role in lubricating bearings, cooling the turbine, and ensuring reliable operation. Our systems are also engineered to handle control oil, cooling oil, and jacking oil functions, making them a versatile solution for any turbomachinery environment.
