PH2oenix™ Membrane Oil Dehydrators & Purifiers
For Lube & Hydraulic Fluids
Introducing MSC Filtration Technologies' exclusive line of portable and permanent Phoenix Membrane oil dehydrators—an ingenious solution for addressing water contamination challenges in small to medium-sized oil reservoirs, as well as those located in hard-to-reach areas or facing electrical constraints such as single-phase voltage or no electricity supply.
The Phoenix operates on a groundbreaking hollow fiber membrane technology. It functions by guiding the oil across one side of the membrane while creating a vacuum on the other side. This process ensures that oil flows in a steady state as moisture is efficiently separated and expelled using a compact onboard vacuum pump.
The result? An economical, space-saving, and user-friendly oil dehydrator that delivers outstanding results.
If you're in need of a system that doesn't rely on electricity or requires explosion-proof capabilities, be sure to explore our comprehensive range, including the air-driven Phoenix model.

About PH2oenix
No Filters Needed With The PHoenix™
The PHoenix™ does not use disposable water absorbing filters that require constant changing but instead dehydrates water from the oil using a proprietary maintenance free hollow fiber technology and online miniature vacuum source which have unlimited water removal capability.
The PHoenix™ is Portable and Compact
The PHoenix™ is extremely portable and compact so can get into spaces normal dehydrators cannot. It also has very few moving parts compared to standard dehydrators, and its set and forget design makes it as simple and easy to use as a filter cart.
Versatility with The PHoenix™
With The PHoenix™, versatility means that when it is not being used to remove water from contaminated lube or hydraulic systems it can also be used as an oil transfer and or oil filter cart. If supplied with the optional Aquatrex or MTrak moisture monitoring systems then the PHoenix ™ can also become a diagnostic tool for tracking intermittent water ingression into reservoirs and alerting operators of potential problems like worsening seal leaks or cooler leaks.
PHoenix™ Oil Purifiers
Mini, C, C4 and C8 NEMA 4 Electric Membrane Oil Dehydrators
The MSC Filtration Technologies line of PH2oenix™ Membrane Oil Purifiers is a revolutionary way to tackle water and particulate contamination in small to medium sized gear boxes, hydraulic systems and lube oil systems of between two to two thousand gallons. Size dependent on oil type, oil temperature and water ingression rate. The PH2oenix™ is the worlds' first filter cart and membrane oil dehydrator combination and is as simple and easy to use as a normal filter cart but without the need to replace costly water removal elements. It uses a robust and durable hollow fiber membrane bundle and an on board vacuum source to remove free, emulsified and dissolved water from oil down to less than 50 ppm.

PH2oenix™ X Series Oil Puifiers For Use In Hazardous Duty Environments of Class 1 Group C&D Areas
The PH2oenix™ X series of membrane oil dehydrators has been specifically designed to be used in areas such as refineries, gas plants and oil rigs where class 1 group C&D electrical requirements are needed. They are perfect for removing water and particulate contamination from small to medium sized compressors, turbines, gear boxes and hydraulic systems. The PH2oenix™ X Series purifiers come in three different versions depending on what type of customer utilities are available. These three versions are as follows.
- PHoenix™ CX Series: Electric & Compressed Air
PH2oenix™ X
Utilizes a Class 1 Group C&D rated fluid pump and electric wiring and on/off switch along with a compressed air driven maintenance free vacuum venturi to generate vacuum for water removal.
Utilities Required- 110/220 V Single Phase Class 1 Goup C&D
- Compressed Air 75-85 psig at 13 SCFM.
- PH2oenix™ XA Series: All Compressed Air Driven
PH2oenix™ XA
To be used in areas where single phase electric is not readily available but compressed air is. The PH2oenix™ XA is completely compressed air driven utilizing a compressed air driven fluid pump motor and a maintenance free vacuum venturi to generate vacuum for water dehydration and removal. This unit is variable flow of up to 8 gpm (oil viscosity and compressed air availability dependent). Utilities required is oil free compressed air (does not have to be instrument grade) at 75-85 psig at between 13 and 50 SCFM)
Utilities Required- Compressed Air 75-85 psig at 20-50 SCFM PHoenix™ model and flow dependent.
- PHoenix™ XE Series: All Single Phase Electric
PH2oenix™ XE
The PHoenix™ XE is designed to be used in hazardous duty areas where there is no or limited compressed air availability. It utilizes all Class 1 group C&D electric components including an electric fluid pump and a Class 1 group C&D rated vacuum pump to generate vacuum for water removal.
Utilities Required- 110/220V Single Phase Class 1 Group C&D. Amp draw less than 12 amps.
