A leading steel forging manufacturer that produces high-tensile components for government applications was facing ongoing maintenance issues with one of its largest forging presses. The plant operates a 5,000-ton forging press powered by a 5,000-gallon hydraulic reservoir using biodegradable fire-resistant oil (Fuchs Renosafe 46) to ensure workplace safety and environmental compliance.  The Challenge: Elevated Water and Particulate Contamination  The customer began experienci

New oil purchased for regular consumption which is now being cleaned through a 50 GPM Vacuum Dehydration Oil Purification System. Hydraulic Oil Contamination Challenges in Aluminum Extrusion Manufacturing A national leader in the manufacturing of extruded aluminum products in Texas was facing a costly and persistent challenge: hydraulic leaks in four large horizontal aluminum extrusion presses. Each press relies on complex hydraulic systems with high-value pumps and precision

Problem Faced by A Large Industrial Gas Manufacturing Plant in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Elevated levels of varnish contamination, overall water content, and particle counts in the 190-gallon lube oil system of a CO2 Compressor was discovered by oil analysis. With an MPC reading of 35.2, water content of 292 PPM, and an ISO Cleanliness Code of 21/20/17, operators were concerned that the ISO VG 68 Compressor Oil was outside of recommended OEM cleanliness specifications. If left u

To effectively mitigate the varnish contamination in the hydraulic oil, the plant decided to implement a 10 GPM Varnish Removal System.

Problem: Maintenance personnel at the Power House of a major university in New York noticed discoloration of the Mobil SHC 32 Lube Oil in their Solar Titan 130 Gas Turbine Generator after several years of operation. This prompted them to conduct oil analysis, and the lab results revealed an elevated varnish potential number of MPC 53. If left untreated, operators were worried that varnish would eventually plate out on the metal surfaces within the lube oil system, causing el
