Applications

Applications by industry

Dust in cement plants, water at sea, oxidation in turbines. Each page shows what goes wrong and what we fit.

Heavy industrial plant equipment where oil cleanliness governs availability

Turbine lube oil, EHC fluid, standby diesel

Control valves stick while the particle count still looks fine.

Power generation

Main threat

Oxidation products and varnish

First symptom

Valve response drifting

Usual answer

Varnish removal unit plus depth filtration

Presses, injection moulding, rolling mills, machine tools

Servo valves stick and cycle times drift.

Hydraulic manufacturing

Main threat

3 to 5 µm silt

First symptom

Short element life

Usual answer

Tank mounted fine filter and rated breather

Kiln drives, mills, crushers, conveyors

Abrasive dust drives most gearbox rebuilds.

Cement and mining

Main threat

Silica and hard particles

First symptom

Wear metals climbing

Usual answer

High capacity filter for thick gear oil

Lube and gear oil, stern tube, diesel storage, bilge water

Water is the main contaminant and spares are days away.

Marine and offshore

Main threat

Emulsified and salt water

First symptom

Oil turns cloudy again

Usual answer

Filter separator sized to the ingress rate

Thermic fluid circuits in chemicals, textiles and food

Carbon deposits show up first as higher fuel consumption.

Heat transfer systems

Main threat

Carbon and thermal degradation products

First symptom

Higher firing rate for the same temperature

Usual answer

Temperature rated filter on a slip stream

Power and distribution transformers

A fitted unit stops moisture rising between annual tests.

Transformer oil

Main threat

Moisture and particles

First symptom

Breakdown voltage falling

Usual answer

Online filtration and drying, energised
