New Filtration Technology for Industrial Applications
Using techniques such as analysis and high-quality precision hydraulic filter elements, it is possible to increase the useful life of hydraulic oil and lubricants. To demonstrate this, we conducted a Case Study: Firstly, we separated 20 liters of used oil and took a sample for analysis. Then we subjected the oil to high-quality precision hydraulic filtration for 24 hours. Following this period, we collected another sample for comparison. As shown in the video, the reports indicated that the sample of used hydraulic oil had an ISO Standard equal to 26/23/19, revealing a significant amount of microparticles measuring 4, 6, and 14 microns. In the sample collected after high-quality precision hydraulic filtration, there was a noticeable decrease in these contaminants, leaving the oil in a usable condition, even for sensitive components.
Hydraulic and lubricating oil contamination
About 70% to 80% of hydraulic system failures are caused by problems stemming from particle or moisture contamination in the oil.
As demonstrated in this case study, using techniques such as oil analysis and high-quality precision hydraulic filtration can extend the oil's life and consequently enhance the performance of machines and equipment.
How does oil analysis work?
As shown in the video, oil analysis is conducted after collecting a sample, which is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. It's important to note that different analyses can occur, as samples can be collected from various parts of the equipment.
Understanding high-quality precision hydraulic filtration
High-quality precision hydraulic filtration separates particles in fluids, oils, and emulsions, utilizing filter elements with pores ranging from 0.1 to 10 micrometers. This technology removes substances larger than the pores from the circulating fluid.
Diesel, lubricant, and hydraulic oils pass through a set of filters during high-quality precision hydraulic filtration. This process eliminates contamination particles (water and microparticles), preventing equipment wear and damage caused by oil.
