Vacuum Dehydration

Water Ingression? HDP Series Vacuum Dehydrator. Detect and manage water in oil with precision. Our approach employs on-site probe diagnostics and in-tank/external communication to identify and address both free and dissolved water levels, ensuring optimal system performance. Purify hydraulic & lubrication systems by utilizing the HDP series vacuum dehydrator.

In contrast to techniques involving high-temperature oil burning, the HDP series offers an efficient and effective solution based on vacuum dehydration removing 100% free water and 80% dissolved water and gasses. Not looking to purchase? Ask about our rental options and rates.

Varnish Skid

Varnish is characterized as a thin, insoluble film deposit that forms on oil-wetted surfaces within these systems. Compromising hydraulic components such as bearings, servo valves and pumps which can have detrimental effects on equipment operation and longevity.

Hydra-Fab’s varnish skid utilizes Pall’s SUPRAdisc II technology and serves as a portable off-line filter solution engineered to minimize or eliminate varnish presence in hydraulic and lubrication systems.

Offline Filtration Circuits

In hydraulic systems, contamination is responsible for 70-90% of wear and failure, significantly impacting system longevity and efficiency. Although contamination cannot be eliminated, it can be significantly mitigated using offline filtration methods, such as a portable filtration cart or an integrated kidney loop system. These systems are engineered to cater to specific reservoir sizes, ensuring optimal performance and fluid cleanliness.

Offline filtration, commonly referred to as a kidney loop circuit, is a highly effective and cost-efficient method for maintaining fluid cleanliness in hydraulic and lubrication systems. This system extracts fluid from the reservoir, circulates it through a filtration circuit, and returns the purified fluid to the reservoir.

Kidney loop systems effectively remove a substantial portion of particulate contamination, thereby reducing downtime, repair needs, and overall operational expenses. By maintaining cleaner fluid, these systems help extend the life of hydraulic components, enhance system performance, and lower the total cost of ownership.
