ECR™
Sub-micron particulate contamination management – the missing link in phosphate ester fluid maintenance
Managing Phosphate Ester Fluids
90% of total solid contamination in industrial lubricants cannot be removed by standard mechanical filters. Fine particulate contaminants pass through these filtration systems, impacting fluid life and component wear. ECR™, an electrostatic contaminant removal system, combines a high voltage electrostatic field with a proprietary collector element to remove sub-micron particles.
Hyper-focused on sub-micron particulate contamination, ECR removes particulates below the range of mechanical filters. The result – improved fluid color and drastically reduced solid contamination levels. When used in conjunction with ICB™ for acid and dissolved contamination removal, and TMR™ N2 for water removal, comprehensive fluid maintenance is achieved.
Eliminate Phosphate Ester Fluid Solid Contamination
There are two basic categories of solid contamination in lubricants:
>4 micron particulate measured and classified by ISO 11500/4406
<4 micron particulate which is not measured
Particulate contamination <4 microns, the result of micro-dieseling (temperature fluid breakdown caused by air release issues) is responsible for fluid darkening. ECR removes this sub-micron particulate contamination, integral in the management of phosphate ester fluid quality.
ECR Features and Benefits:
- Removes carbon produced from micro dieseling and restores fluid color
- Reduces patch weight by up to 98% or < 4mg / 50ml fluid
- Protects servo valves from mechanical wear
- Reduces total dirt load typically by 75% (by mass) or more
- Decreases air entrainment and increases resistivity
With typical analysis showing as little as 10% of the contamination present, specialized testing is required.
