The majority of hydraulic failures and component damage can usually be traced back directly to suboptimal oil quality. If not properly flushed out, oil contaminants such as water, rust, weld slag, loose scale and other debris can cause unnecessary equipment breakdowns due to increased wear and tear. This can result in critical maintenance issues and lost production time.
Flushing can be done on new or used systems using purpose-built rigs to achieve required fluid velocity and filter units incorporating high beta ratio filters to provide efficient and rapid contamination removal.
