Gearbox, Gear & Circulation Oil Filtration
Filtration for the control of wear particles and water contamination in high-volume gearboxes, gear units, and central circulation systems.
Typical Risks
What do we encounter in the system?
- Wear metals
- Dirt load in high-viscosity oils
- Water ingress
- Tank and line sludge
- Post-maintenance flushing requirement
OEMLUBE Approach
How do we work?
- Off-line filtration with appropriate flow rate
- Equipment selection based on viscosity
- Water separation options
- Pre/post-maintenance conditioning
- Result verification through sampling and analysis
Application Principle
The filtration unit is selected according to the system.
Filter micron rating alone is not a sufficient selection criterion. Oil viscosity, temperature, existing pump/valve structure, tank volume, desired circulation time, water load, and target cleanliness value must be evaluated together.
Analysis
Oil and contamination status are determined.
Connection
Suction-return points and safe on-site connections are planned.
Filtration
Oil is cleaned off-line with a controlled flow rate.
Control
The result is confirmed with a final sample and on-site observation.
Information Required for a Quote
Oil type + tank volume + equipment + analysis report
Sharing these four pieces of information accelerates the determination of the correct device/flow rate and operation time.
