Chiller-Oil Acid & Moisture Purger (Oil Separator)

Chiller-Oil Acid & Moisture Purger (Oil Separator)

(OP)
We have 6 low pressure centrifugal chillers (R11). Oil migration has always been an issue. I recently came across Oil Acid & Moisture Purger (Oil Separator) Models  OAM-LPC200-11/113 & OAM-LPC200-123. Has anyone installed one of these and what do you think about it. Any issues that you can think of. Currently we only have one oil return line that comes back from volute. We do not have oil recovery system (Eductor). Do you guys have any other suggestions. Thanks.Below is the link to the companys webwite. Thanks in advance.

What model chiller? The OAM works well, however there may be other ways to recover the oil such as the eductor that you do not have.
