CLEAN, DRY OIL

Within lubrication and hydraulic systems, contamination - in the form of particulates, moisture and gases - can have significant adverse effects on the operation and service life of the oil and process equipment. They are the primary cause of wear, corrosion, fluid breakdown, loss in lubricity, and in many cases, total failure or seizure of the system.

Porous Media's L&H Oil Conditioning Technologies enable lubrication or hydraulic engineers to cost effectively remove these contaminants and minimize wear within the system, thus ensuring reliable service life, predictable operation, and maximum uptime. With an understanding of the source and nature of contamination and how it reacts within the system, a complete conditioning solution can be designed which will contribute to overall process optimization.

In many systems, oil conditioning is only applied after oil sampling and analysis indicates an elevated level of particulate and/or aqueous contamination. Depending on the frequency of sampling, significant damage can occur before a problem is noticed and action initiated to recondition the oil. Porous Media has recently developed several advanced technologies that individually and in combined systems enable users to continuously clean and dehydrate oil with little or no operator intervention required.

GENESIS® coreless filters with STRATAFORM® microfiber media for the removal of particulate contaminants.

ULTIDRI oil dehydration systems for continuous removal of Free, Emulsified and Dissolved water.

STEALTH conditioning technologies to prevent the ingression of moisture and particulates into oil reservoirs.

STARVIEW real-time condition monitoring enables operators to monitor critical fluid condition parameters such as Moisture Content and ISO Cleanliness Codes, at any time, directly over the internet.
