HIGH-VISCOSITY FILTRATION SYSTEM – filter cart choices have been very limited when it came to filtering lubricants with viscosity of greater than 500 SUS @ 100ºF. The problem with attempting to filter a high viscosity oil with a lower viscosity system is that the pump and filters are not designed to work with higher pressures required to push high viscosity fluids through the system. As a result these low viscosity units operate primarily in “bypass” mode where little if any of the high-viscosity oil gets filtered.
HIGH-VISCOSITY FILTRATION SYSTEM – that is where Trico’s High-Viscosity Filter Cart System comes in. This system is specifically designed for high-viscosity fluids associated mainly with gear oils and can filter oils up to 7500 SUS @ 100ºF (1600 cSt @ 40ºC).
HIGH-VISCOSITY FILTRATION SYSTEM to ensure that the equipment receives the cleanest oil possible, for increased equipment life, Trico’s High-Viscosity Filter Cart System provides two-stage filtration. The oil flows through the primary filter first, where coarse particulate is removed. Then the fluid flows through the secondary filter where fine particulate and water are removed.
HIGH-VISCOSITY FILTRATION SYSTEM a variety of filter media elements are available to meet recommended manufacturer cleanliness levels.
