Filter change proves how costly dirt can be to your hydraulic pump
A pump is the heart of a hydraulic system. When the pump fails, the entire system is down until the pump is operational again. This poses a serious threat to any operation relying on hydraulic systems for productivity. Recently, a hydraulic valve manufacturer was losing 25 pumps a year on their centralized hydraulic system at a cost of $2,440 each. … [Read more...]

Cleanliness and wear monitoring via modern particle-measurement technology
In hydraulic systems, the oil is regarded as a structural element that handles many diverse tasks, according to engineers at ARGO-HYTOS. Hydraulic fluid transmits power, lubricates, transfers heat, and transports dirt to the filters. Although there are many causes for failure in fluid-power systems, the condition of the oil is usually the main … [Read more...]

Clean systems start with hydraulic fluid storage and transfer
IsoLink Oil Transfer Containers from Des-Case play a critical part in keeping hydraulic fluids contaminant free and dry during small volume transfers from oil barrels to the system. Available in three sizes — 4, 7 and 10 liters, they feature a square design that provides 27% more storage capacity than round containers. These containers are used … [Read more...]
COT AB launches COT Oil Refiner to eliminate bound and free water from oil
Water contamination in hydraulic oil can cause harmful effects. The water reduces the oil’s viscosity and lubricating function and water does not work in elastohydrodynamic lubrication. What’s worse, water in hydraulic oil will cause corrosion and metal fatigue and form sludge. Oxidation and hydrolysis shorten the oil’s lifespan. The negative … [Read more...]
