Oil Filter is designed to remove contaminants from engine oil, transmission oil, lubricating oil, or hydraulic oil. Oil Filters are used in many different types of machinery. The oil filter is also used in internal-combustion engines in motor vehicles. Other vehicle hydraulic systems, such as those in automatic transmissions and power steering, are often equipped with an Oil Filter of some type as well. We offer a range of Oil Filters & Machinery. The Oil Filters & Machinery have changed over the years. Early designs used steel wool, wire meshes, metal screens, etc. Latter bulk cotton or various woven fabrics like linen were used. When disposable filters became popular, cellulose and papers were used to minimize production costs. Finally "synthetic" media oil filters were introduced where special man made fibers are utilized.  Fiberglass and metal fabrics are also sometimes used for oil filtration. Today, most low-cost disposable spin-on oil filters use cellulose filter media. Better quality oil filters use synthetic media, while top end oil filter use "MicroGlass" or extremely fine metal mesh.

MaintenanceMaintenance is the largest single controllable expense in a manufacturing plant. With as many as 80% of all machine failures related to contamination in the oil, pro-active methods are saving industries considerable costs every year. We offer an introduction to the problems with insufficient oil cleanliness, the causes and the remedy of the problems. All the information presented is generally known and accepted. We invite you to take advantage of the experience we have gathered over the past 50 years with oil maintenance within various types of applications. The perfect oil cleaning system will control the level of all types of contaminations. We offer wide range of Off- Line Filters, By-pass Filters, Online Filters and several other Oil Filters & Machinery.

We offer Water & Fuel Testing Kits for water analysis so that the boiler and cooling systems remain in good shape. The Water & Fuel Testing Kit comes with a number of measuring devices for calculating density and other factors to ensure proper bunkering practices. The Water & Fuel Testing Kits can be purchased at reasonable price from us.

Important Considerations

• Measure density and water content to calculate the mass of fuel delivered - see also the Info Centre.
• Ensure the fuel is within the required specification under ISO 8217, Viscosity, Density, Water, CCAI, Compatibility, Pour Point, Salt, etc.
• Maintain fuel samples for Port State Inspection under MARPOL 73/78 Annex VI.

Fuel Testing Products with Quality & Quantity 

• Density : Fuel is delivered from the bunker barge by volume and confirmed by meter or tape soundings. It is paid for by mass with a conversion relying on an accurate density reading. The density meter provides that and more. CCAI, Density in Vacuo and Viscosity conversion.
• Viscosity : Viscosity in conjunction with density is the defining parameter for fuel grade. Variations outside of the viscosity limit can often be accommodated with prior warning.  Simple, robust and accurate indication of fuel viscosity at 50°C and 100°C. Calculate CCAI and convert between viscosity units.
• Water & TBN Test : Why pay for water in your fuel?  Maximum water contamination limits are established in ISO 8217 and can be easily checked with several water test options available from Kittiwake.  You can also use this test to verify purifier performance and check you lubricating oils.
• Compatibility : Mixing and blending fuels is often a necessary process but can lead to a whole world of difficulties. Asphaltimes become unstable and fall from solution blocking purifiers and filters. A simple test for single or blended fuel stability and following accepted ASTM test methods.  
• Cloud Point : Not often an issue with commercial ships but a serious consideration foe military vessels or those venturing in to arctic waters without tank heating. Also used to verify suitability of winter grade diesel fuels. Developed for the UK Ministry of Defence,  identify single or multiple wax points in clean distillate fuels.
• Flash Point : Refinery QC or contamination with light diesel fractions will lead to depressed flash point. Off specification fuels are a reason for debunkering and need to be treated carefully. Another rugged and accurate On-Site test aimed at identifying problems before they become expensive.  
• Pour Point : This is probably the easiest test to undertake without purchasing specialist equipment, even ours. Keeping a low pour point fuel warm and using it quickly will prevent sludging in tanks and blockage of lines when operating in temperate climates.  
• Fuel & Lube Test Cabinet : A 15 year history in the Fuel market monitoring both in-service lubricants and Industries fuel deliveries. A single cabinet containing tests selected with an accuracy appropriate to the application. Simple to use, rugged test equipment and none hazardous consumables.
