Our largest oil filtration system, the MTS-240, is a workhorse that easily handles the 24/7 operational environments on engines with large oil sump capacities. Unique in the industry, the MTS-240 will micro-filter an oil sump capacity of 85 gallons (322 Liters) and is designed to be used in multiples on oil rigs, where engines can hold up to 450 gallons (1,703 Liters) of oil.
Many leading companies in the oil & gas industry, including Nabors, Scandrill, and H&P have been relying on Puradyn filtration for almost a decade to save them money from fewer oil changes, reduced maintenance, and longer engine life. More recently, companies have discovered the savings potential of equipping their pressure pumping fleets with puraDYN systems on their engines and transmissions.
The puraDYN systems utilized on engines and generators on land and offshore oil drilling platforms are able to significantly reduce oil maintenance needs and costs by keeping engine oil continuously clean and in good working order. The resultant decrease in downtime and increased productivity make it ideal for use on rigs in remote locations, possessing a high oil sump capacity and the necessity to be operable 24/7. There is no need to shut down the engine when changing a puraDYN filter.
Additionally, the safe extension of oil drains translates to a significant reduction in the amount of oil being transported to and from remote locations, decreasing operating costs and lessening the amount of CO2 and NOx emitted into the atmosphere. Likewise, due to the extension of oil drains, production of waste oil is also reduced, further diminishing the operator’s environmental impact.
Puradyn has worked for over five years with a natural gas pipeline operator that operates a fleet of natural gas compressors, made up of Waukesha and CAT engines. Our customer specifically cites engine cleanliness from operating with oil kept constantly clean by the bypass oil filtration system as the determining factor in extending its engine overhaul intervals. Since installing the system, the operating company changes oil every four months of 24/7 operations (or 2,600+ hours) with no maintenance issues. In fact, due to the cleanliness of the engines and the efficient water removal through use of Puradyn‘s micro-fine filtration technology, they have been able to extend engine overhauls by 10,000+ hours.
puraDYN systems work just as well to extend oil drain intervals on hydraulic systems which often cost more to maintain than engines. Most companies already have the price of the puraDYN system paid for in net savings they achieve, requiring no additional capital investment.
