Oil Filtration
Oil filtration is a process used to remove particles and contamination from hydraulic, lubrication, and dielectric fluids that may hinder the functioning of equipment. During oil filtration, contaminants and unwanted fluid substances are separated from the primary fluid substance. Because contamination of unwanted fluids can accelerate the wear of vital parts in a system, oil filtration is an important process for many industries.
Oil filtration is often used to remove contaminants from parts such as bearings, valves, pumps, gears, contacts, and more. Oil filtration products include strainers, liquid cartridges, housings and filters, cartridge filters, bag filters, membranes and ultrapure filters. Such products allow filtering systems to filter hydraulic and quench oil.
Oil filtration remains common in the automotive/trucking and agricultural industries, as well as other industries that utilize equipment requiring the use of motor, hydraulic, and other types of oils.
