Kleenoil Hydraulic Kits

 

 

The Kleenoil Bypass Filter Hydraulic Block is mounted to the bottom of the Kleenoil Bypass Filter System to convert the lower pressure bypass engine oil filter to a high pressure hydraulic fluid filter.

There are three ports on the valve block as listed:

  • Port 1: Low Pressure output approximately 50 PSI normally is blanked off but may be used to supply another filter housing
  • Port 2: High pressure input up to 3000 PSI
  • Port 3: Return to hydraulic reservoir. This port is fitted with adaptors size No. 6 JIC and it is important that the return hose is of at least 3/8 bore.

Hydraulic Fluid Factoids:

  • More than 70% of hydraulic failures are caused by contaminants in the oil.
  • Heavily contaminated oil can reduce power by as much as 15-20%, slowing machine response and taking longer to perform an operation.
  • By following a few basic tips listed below, the life of piston rods, seals, valves, and pumps can be more than doubled.
  • By Maintaining the hydraulic fluid in 'as-new' condition, the life of the same components can be increased ten-fold.
  • Particles Breed Particles: An abrasive particle passing through the system scrapes off further particles. Larger ones join the original to create a mass of wear catalysts, smaller ones become silt which builds up on metal surfaces to clog oil flow and cause sticking valve components. In line filters do not remove silt, (particles below 15 micron) and do not remove water.

The main benefits of using the Kleenoil Bypass Filter Hydraulic Kits along with Bypass Filter Units:

  • A dramatic reduction in component wear (seals, piston rods, pumps, etc).
  • A reduction in the incidence of sticking and worn valve components.
  • Extended life of in-line filters.
  • An end to the need to change hydraulic fluids.

Tips:

  • Fix leaks immediately, if oil can get out, dirt can get in.
  • Replace worn seals and rod wipers without delay.
  • Keep fluid levels at a maximum to avoid high temperatures.
  • Prevent dirt entering system by thoroughly cleaning oil drums, keep tight fitting covers, and using clean hoses and nozzles when transferring oil.
  • Try not to disturb oil when filling, any dirt in the drum bottom should stay there.
  • Do not transfer oil with buckets or other open containers and funnels.
  • During maintenance use caps where appropriate, clean threads and components with solvent and thoroughly dry before returning.
  • Avoid sludge being returned to oil when removing old filters.
  • Use a Kleenoil Mobile Filtration System to transfer new oil into an system.

The Kleenoil Hydraulic Unit Data Sheet

  • The Kleenoil "High Pressure" oil filter can be fitted on the 'by-pass' basis to hydraulic systems, compressors, or any system with oil at pressure up to 3000 PSI.
  • The flow through the Kleenoil Filter is controlled to approximately 3 quarts (liters) / minute at 40 PSI. This gives you a flow rate which is low enough to avoid having negligible effects on most 'System Pressures', YET is high enough to ensure that oil is being kept in 'as new' condition.
  • Filtration Level: Particulate contamination in accordance with BS 5540 Part 4: 1981 and ISO/DIS 4406 14/9, equivalent to NAS 1638 Class 6 (Hydraulic Oil Specification).
  • Water Retention: To <0.025%
  • Total Water Capacity of Cartridges: Heavy Duty (Code KF50) - 0.56L and Super Duty (code KF85) - 1.2L
  • NAS GRADE (National Aerospace Standard 1638)
  • NAS GRADE is a widely adopted standard to measure the contamination degree of hydraulic oil.

Edan Farms Testimonial

Edan Farms has been using PowerUp for over 20 years in all our Semi-tractors. We have been a contractor for Fedex Ground running from 20-30 rigs nearly every day. Each truck travels over 200,000 per year.

One of the first things we noticed when we started using PowerUp is that our engines run cooler. Since using PowerUp, we have not had to overhaul an engine in less than 1 million miles and most we haven't overhauled in less than 1.4 million miles. When we do take the engine apart, it is always very clean, and wear is extremely minimal. In 20 years, we have not had a single differential gear failure due to lubrication.

With PowerUp, we extended our oil drains to 30,000 miles and could have probably run further if we had chosen to.

About 10 years ago, because of your presentation on KleenOil Filtration, we started adding these filter units to our engine. With the continuous purification of the oil and complete removal of water, we now have been able to extend oil drains to well over 300,000 miles per rig. We still sample each engine every 30,000 miles and have been very impressed with the condition of the oil even after these extended oil drains. We have never had an issue due to lubrication with any of the engines.

PowerUp and Kleenoil have saved us thousands upon thousands of dollars in oil changes, engine repairs and overhauls. Presumably, though we have never collected the data, we have saved thousands in fuel costs because the engines maintain their efficiency due to very low wear.

I personally maintain our engines and I am a believer in these products because I have seen the results. I would recommend them to anyone. Please feel free to have anyone call if they have any questions.

U-Pak Testimonial

To Whom It May Concern:

We were interested but skeptical when Richard Wright of Kleenoil approached us regarding a bypass engine oil system. This system would lengthen our oil and drop intervals on our PM2 Maintenance program from 15,000KM to 60,000KM.

After Richard's demonstration of product data we tested the product on two trucks. In conjunction with the Toromont Oil Analysis program, we were currently using; we monitored the results of the oil quality. We were very impressed with the results.

We have decided to run this program on our entire fleet of 60 disposal and recycling trucks, including city and long haul units. There has been a substantial cost savings not only on the oil and filters but the labour costs have also decreased dramatically due to the time saving for a 10 minute oil filter cartridge change.

Upon installation of the system we do a full oil drop including all the filters. Then we change only the Kleenoil cartridge every 15,000KM. At the 60,000KM milestone we do another full drop.

We have also used the Kleenoil product on the hydraulic systems of a large industrial baler and a garbage compactor that we also have on site.

We have been pleased with the service from Kleenoil and have found them to have a good availability of filters. We will be installing the Kleenoil System on any future equipment purchases and highly recommend the product.
