Cleanliness Levels Achievable

This testing adheres to ISO 4406 / 4407 method of testing contamination in mineral oils. 100 ml test oil sample mixed with hexane / benzene is passed through a membrane of diameter 47 mm and pore size 0.8 microns. The contamination left on the membrane after the oil passes through is studied under a microscope and compared to pre-determined patches provided in a colour chart. The comparison can help us to determine the ISO Value which is the level of cleanliness of the sample oil. This value can be co related to equivalent NAS Value. KLAROL can clean oil as dirty as with NAS Value more than 12, down to as clean as with NAS Value 4.

KLAROL mobile oil cleaning machine or KLAROL systems installed permanently on oil tanks with pre-heater and vaccum pump can remove considerable water contamination from hydraulic / turbine oils. We have in some places cleaned hydraulic oils / turbine oils with upto 20,000 ppm of water down to less than 50 ppm of water.

Test report of turbine oil tested at Chattisgarh State Electricity Board.

Test report of hydraulic oil tested at Moser Baer, Noida.

Test report of hydraulic oil tested at Videocon, Aurangabad.

The Indian Institute of Petroleum conducted trials on buses running between Delhi and Dehradun installed with Klarol and running on IOC Servo Pride Engine Oil which is drained at 18,000 kms. The test report of engine oil clearly shows that the oil is still fit for use even after the bus had covered almost 36,000 kms.
