Filtercart for additional filtration of hydraulic systems According to the recommendations of the manufacturers of the military equipment with integrated hydraulic systems, the hydraulic oil has to be changed every 1, 2, or 3 years. However, the need to change oil and filters no longer depends on what is recommended by the manufacturers, but is depicted by the hydraulic system itself. The contamination level (90% of the failures is caused by debris such as, sand/dirt particles, wear metals and water contaminants in the hydraulic system) needs to be maintained at an acceptable level to determine whether or not the oil and system filters need to be changed. Savings The most obvious cost of contaminated oil is machine downtime. The number of times you need to replace pumps, valves etc. is directly related to the condition of the oil in the system. The total cost of replacing oil increases as the cost of disposing contaminated oil grows. The use of a filtercart will decrease the times needed to change the oil and as a result, lead to lower disposal costs.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES: Filling hydraulic systems with new fluid The term “new fluid” may give the impression of an acceptable fluid. Unfortunately, this fluid is not clean. According to a “new fluid” survey conducted in 1972 in the USA, in cooperation with over 50 companies, new oil added to a fluid system (e.g at the manufacturing stage, during refilling, or when the fluid is replaced) has a 50:50 chance of being too dirty for components to tolerate and thus causing a serious reduction in the components’ service life. Flushing and system cleaning System contamination consists of the residue from...
