Contamination control is a critical part of equipment reliability. It is likely that equipment problems will occur if both water and particles are not removed from the system's oil. Removal of both of these contaminants can be simultaneously achieved by using filtration systems with dual stage filtration - using a water-removal element first, followed by a particulate-removal element. Portable filter carts are ideal for this type of contamination control.
