Construction Applications
In the construction industry, equipment downtime = lost money! If you have to pull your equipment out of service due to overdue oil changes, if you have costly engine overhauls due to wear from operating in extreme conditions and environments, or if you simply cannot afford to have any equipment downtime, then the Kleenoil Filtration System is the solution to keeping your equipment up and running.

Construction equipment is used in the harshest, dirtiest, and most rugged environments. Surprisingly, construction equipment is equipped with just ordinary full-flow filters which cannot remove the greater amounts of solid contaminants that enter through the air intake or are introduced into hydraulic systems. Often, as a practical solution, maintenance managers will change oil and filters earlier and more often to reduce engine wear. This, of course, increases oil change costs and when you are dealing with a large fleet of equipment, these cost increases can rapidly get into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Recommendations for Use

The Kleenoil Filtration System will be a valuable addition for your construction equipment if:
 

  • You put a large amount kilometres or hours on your construction equipment annually.
  • You would like to save a large amount of money on oil changes by extending drain intervals. You could save as much as 90 percent over your previous oil maintenance schedule.
  • You need to reduce downtime as much as possible.
  • You simply want the ultimate in protection for your equipment and you want to maximize the life of your engines, hydraulic systems, and transmissions.

Key Benefits of the Kleenoil Filtration System for Construction Applications

  • Extends oil drain intervals.
  • Reduces new oil purchase.
  • Improves oil viscosity.
  • Decreases sludge and varnish deposits.
  • Reduces operational costs.
  • Reduces depreciation costs.
  • Reduces oil disposal fees.
  • Reduces downtime.
  • Protects the environment.
  • Virtually eliminates engine wear.
  • Removes 99.95% of all water from oil.
  • Maintains additive package components in oil.
