Need of an Oil Purifier It is widely believed that Industrial Oils have a specified life of operation during which they get contaminated and their properties like viscosity, lubricity etc. deviate beyond acceptable limits. It is a common practice in almost all industries to scrap off the oil after certain duration of their operation and replace it with fresh oil. The frequency of oil replacement varies according to the equipment / machinery type and the work conditions. This activity poses huge expenditure on industry for oil purchase and safe disposal of scrapped oil.
Important Quotes It has been found that oils do not wear out mechanically and may be used over and over again. Thurston says, “A mineral oil is usually just as good after use as before, apart from the impurities, which are removed by filtering.” - US Department of Commerce SW Straton, Directopr No. 86 Where contaminants are removed periodically or continuously, the lubricants may last for many years. PCRA Booklet on Industrial Oils Page 2
Moreover, with contamination increase in circulating oils, the wear and tear of machine parts increases, thereby increasing Used oil do not wear out during service, but get breakdowns and machine component failures. merely contaminated It has been an established fact, if oil is kept at PCRA Booklet on Active Conservation super clean levels, the machine breakdowns Techniques can reduce by more than 80%. To understand this phenomenon, an analogy may be drawn from the human body, wherein blood contamination with bacteria and virus leads to sickness. Healthy diet helps the blood to retain its cleanliness and fight against illness. Similarly, it is mandatory for all oil containing equipments to have a Perfect Oil Purifier as an add-on attachment.
Why is Oil Purification required ? In order to develop a perfect oil purifier, one needs to identify all reasons of oil deterioration and then address them all 100%. Moreover, the operating principle should be easily implement-able and implementation economics should be justified. a. Role of Sub-micronic Solid Particles in Oil Deterioration Any system which uses oil for lubrication, pressure transmission, cooling or flushing, during its operation gets contaminated with infinite sub-micronic particles (silt). Here we are talking only of the particles accumulated because of wear and tear of the various moving components of the system rubbing against close tolerance surfaces. If the oil is not changed or cleaned, the said said system starts suffering breakdowns. Typical failures include jamming and noise of pumps & valves, engine sieze etc.

b. Role of Moisture (In traces) in oil Like solid particles, another enemy of oil is moisture or water. Moisture enters an oil tank through the air breather (along with the humid air intake) or from punctured heat exchangers (alongwith coolant). Even negligible traces of moisture of the order of 200 ppm (0.02% only) can oxidize the oil and generate acids. Oil Acidification causes rubber seal failures and creates oil leakage points. Acids in oil also accelarate the metal surface corrosion, thus damaging essentials system components. Research by Timken Bearing Co, UK shows that moisture contamination in oil even in traces causes the bearing life to fall down drastically. As seen from the graph, a 500 PPM moisture contamination can bring down the bearing life to 40%.

About Klarol Technology – The Perfect Oil Purifier Klarol Oil Purification Technology was developed through an Indo-German joint exercise during early 90s. During its successful voyage since last 15 years in India, fine-tunings in its design have been implemented to suit various operation conditions. During the voyage with a mission of ‘Save Oil’, Klarol Systems have been tried for various industrial applications, benefiting all of them. What is so innovative about Klarol Technology ? It’s true that concept of Oil Purification is not new and has existed since long in the form of filters, centrifuges, electrostatic cleaners, hydrocyclone etc. But, all these technologies suffer operational limitations. Klarol Systems boast of a wide range of operational applicability and are the only ‘Combo Oil Purifier’ in the world - capable of removing Solid Particles, Moisture, Water and Air contaminations from dirty and rejected oils. Benefits guaranteed with Klarol Purifiers 1. 2. 3. 4.

Success Stories of Klarol in India Tata Steel, Jamshedpur records minimum oil consumption per Tonne of Steel produced The company has installed more than 300 Klarol Oil Purifiers since last 7-8 years on its Diesel Engines of Cummins, Caterpillar and Tata make. They have increased the engine oil drain period by more than 12 times on heavy engines and more than 4 times on lighter engines. With these implementations they have been able to record a substantial reduction in engine oil purchase. They have also recorded better efficiency, life and maintenance free-ness of all these engines fitted with Klarol Purifiers.

Tata Motors 5000Tn Press – Towards Zero Maintenance Breakdowns The Automobile giant has installed Klarol Oil Cleaning System on a 5000Tn Hydraulic Press with 20,000L oil capacity in its Truck-1 facility. They have been able to maintain Zero Moisture level in oil and Cleanliness Standard 4-5 times better than new oil. The Klarol installation has been able to maintain the Viscosity, Lubricity and other oil properties intact. Due to reduction in wear and tear of hydraulic parts, rubber sealings, less chocking of servo valves and pumps the maintenance expenditure is poised to go down drastically.
Extracts form Tata Parivar (Internal House Magazine of Tata Motors, Jamshedpur) “ The superfine filter (Klarol oil cleaning system), removes particles upto 0.25 micron continuously form the main tank which drastically reduces the load form the main line filter, increasing its durability. An added advantage is that the new line filtration system removes 100% moisture from the oil After continuous running for 300 hrs. the laboratory results showed an improvement over the earlier NAS value (level of contamination) - 9 and moisture > 1.5% to NAS value 6 and moisture 0%.” (Complete Article Attached as Annexure – 2)

Monnet Ispat, Raipur – Resolving Turbine Problems The prestigious company form Steel and Power Industry used to Turbine related problems due to heavy contamination in Turbine Oil - solid particles and moisture. Earlier they got contract oil cleaning done by Klarol Services. Later on to have a permanent solution to their problems, they installed independent Klarol Turbine Oil Purification plant on 3 Turbines from BHEL, Triveni and ALSTOM. Their turbine oil is reported to be maintained at Superclean, Zero Moisture levels.

CEO, Minimac Solutions speaks (Minimac Solutions are sole Marketing Agents of the product in Western India)
“The implementation of Klarol Oil Cleaning Systems was a tedious task in the country. The most difficult task was to convince the users about its benefits and genuineness. The concept of No More Oil Changes is not easy to digest by any industrial personnel. Before implementation, most of the companies require prior references of success of the product. Not many companies are open to taking risks.
With the persistent efforts of our technical and marketing teams, we have been able to generate many success stories which will now help us to capitalise further. We have a very efficient marketing team all across the country who are poised to implement Klarol across horizontals and verticals of the Indian Industry. We are confident about the realisation of our dream – “ No More Oil Changes, No More Machine Breakdowns.”
