New oil dehydration units from Filtertechnik
Most oils have a maximum allowable water content level. When water levels exceed this value, whether as emulsified, entrained or free water, moisture related problems are inevitable. In mineral hydraulic oil water content up to 400 ppm is permissible. When water content exceeds these permissible levels a series of problems may occur including:
• Oxidation.
• Microbial growth and associated contamination.
• Additive depletion leading to premature component wear.
• Seized spool vales.
• Acid formations.
• Gel Formations.
Filtertechnik adds that Neptune makes economic sense, with low capital and consumable costs. Neptune units are available from stock to purchase, or as a cost-effective alternative units can be hired from Filtertechnik on a weekly basis.
For a limited period (offer ends 30/11/2105) Filtertechnik is offering industrial operations a free oil sampling kit and water content analysis report. Anyone who suspects that they have a water contamination problem in a machine can call Filtertechnik on 0800 0087 456 or Email sales@filtertechnik.co.uk
