1. Why is KleenOil considered Environmentally friendly?

Oil is a finite resource and will inevitably run out one day. Because the Kleenoil filter keeps oil running longer, you will have to purchase less oil throughout the now extended life of the unit. Consequently, engines and hydraulic systems with the Kleenoil Filtration System installed will create less used oil. Disposing of used, contaminated oil creates a risk to the environment and proper disposal methods must be followed to safeguard the environment for future generations. Reducing the amount of fluid that has to be disposed is one way of reducing our impact on the the already over-taxed environment.

2. Does KleenOil reduce water in the engine?

As engine components heat up and cool down, water will become present in your engine. As small amounts of diesel fuel, which contains sulphur, pass by the piston rings and end up in the oil, the sulphur in the fuel will mix with the water to create sulphuric acid. The Kleenoil filter will remove water to less than 0.05% and therefore greatly reduces the formation of sulphuric acid that will cause accelerated wear to engine components.

3. Does KleenOil reduce contaminents and dirt from the oil?

Dirt and wear metals will always be present in hydraulic and engine oil. Indeed, most fluid changes are performed in order to rid oil of dirt and contaminants.

Accelerated wear and damage to equipment can be caused by particles around 3 to 6 microns in size, yet conventional filters only filter out particles down to approximately 10 microns in size.

Kleenoil filters, however will filter out particles down to 1 micron, thereby reducing the number of engine failures and rebuilds.

4. What is KleenOil's greatest benefit?

Extends Drain Intervals & Reduces Time Needed for Service

Certain components, such as dispersants, detergents, oxidation and rust inhibitors, pour-point depressants, metal de-activators, and anti-foaming and gelling agents, are purposely placed in lubrication oil to enhance its performance. Although the Kleenoil system removes dirt, contaminants, wear-metal particles, and water, it does not remove these necessary and useful additives.

Because it is kept clean and free of water, as well as retaining its additive package, oil filtered through the Kleenoil system can be run longer without any risk whatsoever to the engine. Proper oil analysis will indicate the oil's life span, but our experience has shown that the Kleenoil Filtration System can extend the drain interval up to ten times.

Changing the Kleenoil Filter Cartridge requires much less time than what is required to perform a conventional full fluid change. Simply remove the lid from the container, take out the old cartridge and replace it with a new one. This can be done in less than 10 minutes and without the worry of spilling oil and disposing of contaminated fluids.
