Cleanliness Levels

KLAROL Oil Cleaning Systems can purify oil down to NAS 4, from more than NAS 12. They are capable of removing sludge, varnish & lacquer from all oils. These systems can also remove emulsified water from oils down to less than 50 ppm.

Klarol Oil Purifier is also capable of increasing life of engine oil as clearly demonstrated by an engine oil sample test report (attached below) of the Indian Institute of Petroleum Dehradun.

Contamination Removing Capability
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.

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



Test Report of Hydraulic Oil

Test Report of Engine Oil
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.
