Overview filtek system v1
1. 1,000 hour
oil and fuel filtration solution
Reduce service costs
Reduce fuel and oil consumption
Carbon tax reductions
Installation on existing generators
A 45 day return on investment
2. Reduce fuel
consumption
Water, bacteria and sludge are
the main issues causing higher
than average fuel consump-
tion. Contaminated diesel
results in the engine missing,
reduced fuel efficiency, lack of
power, excessive exhaust,
engine knocking, hard start-
ing, Water in the diesel also
increases acid and sludge
build up. Cleaning the fuel
results in vastly improved
combustion and ultimately
vastly improved consumption.
Depending on the condition
of the diesel fuel and engine
age the consumption
improvements have been
from 5% to 13% saving in fuel
per year. Filter excedes new
emission standards and
complies with environmental
laws.
Generator
optimisation
The benefits of clean oil and
fuel are irrefutable in the
reduction in consumption and
machine life. Africa has over
600 million mobile subscrip-
tions making it the fastest
growing telecoms market in
the world. Of the 300_000 sites
built in the last 5 years,
approximately 80_000 of these
sites have no utility power
access. Generators remain by
some margin the most cost
effective power solution per
1Kw/h generated.
No excess oil is
used causing a oil
saving of 66%
Other systems may increase
the sump size of the engine
and therefore cannot be
retrofit. Filtek only requires
500ml of additional oil per
1,000 hrs. Existing genera-
tors that are long in their life
cycle may require a Filtek Oil
Top-up Unit.
Generator service
life is extended up
to 1000 hours
Current service intervals at 250
hours and 33 times per year for
sites running only on genera-
tors, by using our system your
generators are serviced every
1000 hours or only 8 times per
year.

Proven between 5% & 13%
saving in fuel per year
Low upfront CAPEX
75 % saving on services
every year
Installation on
existing
generators
The system can be factory
fitted or field installed to
existing generators The system
does NOT required highly
skilled personal to install. A
complete installation takes
about 20 minutes. The system
is delivered as a complete kit
with all components required
to complete an installation.
The“ease of installation”
design is one of the systems
benefits in a market where
time and resources come at a
premium.
Immediate return
on investment
Alternative power solutions
such as wind, solar and hybrid
power sources require in
most cases several years to
provide a‘return on invest-
ment’.
Once fitted, a Filtek solution
will commence paying for
itself after just 250 hrs.
Depending on the service
cost per country the Filtek
system will pay for itself in
just 3-5 months.
Re-deployable
Deploy on any Genset Size
The Filtek system does not rely on any oil reservoirs or other components normally incorporated
within the generator canopy or sound proofing. As such the system can be transferred to a new
or existing generator making it a fully transferable asset.
3. Potential to earn
Carbon Credits or
carbon tax
reductions
Telecommunications have the capabil-
ity to deliver societal solutions which
can contribute to a global carbon lean
economy. A typical diesel generator
produces about 30 pounds of NOx per
hour. NOx from diesel emissions are
carcinogenic and can cause of up to 70
percent of atmospheric induced
cancers.
Filtek does not increase Waste Hydro-
carbon usage due to the increased
drainage intervals. Equates to 66% less
oil.

Exceeds new emission standards
+ Complies with environmental laws Meets industry
specifications
We have offices in South Africa & Nigeria.
We have been manufacturing filters for 32 years.
now producing over 60 000 units per year.

Significant
increase in
machine life
Keeping oil and fuel clean
extends the overall generator
life; OEM filters neither have
the capacity or fine filtration
capabilities (+10 micron) to
provide adequate filtration
beyond 250 hrs. Filtek removes
contaminants down to 1
micron and keeps the harmful
particles out of the engine and
extending the overall life cycle.
Filter size counts
The standard paper oil and
fuel filters are about 2mm
thick and filter down to about
10-30 microns in particle size.
Filtek oil filtration systems
have several hundred times
the surface area and density
conventional spin-on filters.
Filtek filters the oil and fuel
down to 1 micron in size
thereby protecting the engine.
Removes particulate
between1 and 3μ including
emulsified sludge and mois-
ture (water).
Removing particles between 1 and 3µ
+ removal of emulsified sludge and moisture

The Filtek System consist of two canisters, each housing a unique oil
and fuel filter element.
Implementing the system enables companies
to save +50%
on the operating cost of remote gen. set sites.
