By-Pass Filtration

Combustion Technologies offers By-Pass Filtration (Kidney Loop) systems for trucking, industrial and marine engines. Having the option of either Filtakleen or Filmax, we can cover all your By-Pass filtrations needs.

Filtakleen filters have been proven to work in extending oil drain intervals up to 5 times longer and allows the oil to stay clean during this extended time. Oil Analysis has proven Filtakleen filters to be one of the best on the market today. We have fleets on the east-coast extending their oil change intervals up to 100,000 miles and keeping their equipment healthly and running longer. Proven test have shown that the Filtakleen filter can also increase fuel mileage up to 3% in most cases. Keeping your oil clean from contaminants and soot will allow your engine to runs longer as the oil stays cleaner longer.

Specializing in filtration, we can clean your turbine oil, hydraulic oil, engine oils and gear oils cleaner than OEM requirements. We have teamed up with the worlds best filtration companies to help you keep your equipment running longer and healthier and also help the environment for wasted oil usage.

Large Sump, Industrial, Oil & Gas Applications

Combustion Engines, mobile and stationary, require extensive maintenance to change lubricating oil on a routine basis. Engines provide the most extreme conditions for lubricating oil, water, particulate contamination, extreme heat, and the introduction of air. As a result, the oil oxidizes much quicker than in fluid power systems and requires frequent oil replacement. Maintaining heavy mobile equipment in the mining industry can consume up to 70% of their total maintenance budget. Large stationary turbo charged engines, used in the natural gas pipeline industry, consume up to 40% of their maintenance budget maintaining their equipment. Due to the formation of soot in diesel engines, typical oil drains are performed every 250 to 300 hours. The result of oxidation and nitration in natural gas engines typical oil drains are performed every 1000 to 1200 hours. Our filtration systems have been proven to extend oil drain intervals in diesel engines from 250 hours to over 1200 hours. Filmax is now installed on CAT 3500 and CAT 3600 engines and oil drains have been extended to over 3000 hours. A process utilizing Filmax on CAT 3500’s with recriprocating compressors are currently extending oil drains to 8000 hours. Side Stream Filtration has also shown to extend engine overhaul intervals to well over 60000 hours.

Marine engine applications are critical to maintain and ensure equipment reliability. Fleets of bulk carriers, freighters, tankers and general cargo carriers are aging and require maintenance. Fluid power systems are under a great deal of stress due to the natural environment of being on the water. Ocean vessels travel far over the high seas and have deadlines to meet or ports of call. Once vessels make their port of call, they have limited time stripping (removing cargo) and stuffing (loading cargo) their product. This industry deals with the following problem on a regular basis due to fluid contamination.

* Particle and Water Contamination in Vital Fluid Power Systems:
Steering Gear Hydraulics
Cargo Remote Operations
On Ship Cranes

* Sea Water/ Condensed Water Contamination:
Stern Tube Systems
Thruster Systems

* Wear Particle Contamination:
Deck Hydraulic Units
Anchor Winches.
