- Pall Corporation provides filtration and separation technologies that help customers conserve energy and resources while protecting the environment. Their technologies purify water, consume less energy, enable alternative energy sources, and minimize emissions and waste.
- A study observed that 70% of mechanical failures are due to surface degradation, with 50% from mechanical wear and 20% from corrosion. Proper filtration is key to managing contaminants and preventing wear.
- ISO 4406 cleanliness codes are used to specify particulate contamination levels in hydraulic fluids, with higher numbers indicating dirtier fluid. On-line monitoring is needed to maintain cleanliness levels of ISO 15/13/10 or better required by modern hydraulic systems.
