In Hy-Pro's newest case study, a large paper mill was facing high filter expenses and poor oil cleanliness, leading to premature wear and tear on equipment.
The mill's main-bearing lube filter elements were reaching their terminal DP change limit on an average 3-week interval, costing the company over $70,000 in additional filter expenses. In addition, the mill's ISO fluid cleanliness code was 18/15/12, which is twice the particle limit allowed in the system.
Looking for a solution, the mill consulted Hy-Pro hydraulic filtration solutions experts.
As a result, the paper mill was able to reach a 75% reduction in dirt and a 4x longer filter lifespan. The mill now achieves a filter lifespan of 11 weeks, with a 16/14/12 ISO code. This has saved the company $58,000 annually on the cost of filter elements and maintenance hours and helped them achieve their sustainability objectives.
