Three years ago, I introduced the Kleenoil Filter system into the Garry Mercer Trucking Fleet. My main purpose in doing so was to extend our oil change intervals, and reduce our oil usage without compromising the engine life.
To do this we started out by conducting a few tests. In our first test, we changed the Kleenoil filter every 30,000 km but left the engine oil in, and the filter on. We found we were able to run the oil up to 140,000 km without any problems. We still now only c...

Description: The Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System is a free-standing off-line fluid cleaning rig. The Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System comes available in three iterations:
The electric version has a robust electric pump to circulate oil from machine reservoirs through 1,2 or 4 Kleenoil Filter Cartridges. Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling Systems are used as a multi-purpose fluid cleaning and transfer machine. It is ideal for cleaning most hydraulic, gear, and transmission fluid reservoirs and, because of its portable design, the unit can be used for fuel tank purging on trucks, construction equipment, and boats as well as for oil and fuel transfer and rotational cleaning of factory and industrial equipment. The specially designed Kleenoil filter achieves an ISO 4406 Cleanliness Code of 14/9: well below the original standards of the equipment’s original manufacturers and distributors. By filtering particles down to one micron, the Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System minimizes the amount of dirt and debris within a machine and, as a result, will dramatically cut down on repair and maintenance costs. Fluid cleanliness, particularly in hydraulic systems, is extremely important. It is widely recognized that silt particles (< 5 micron in size) are a primary cause of permature machine failure through abrasive wear of component surfaces. In addition water is a major cause of system damage through accelerated oxidation, corrosion and fluid breakdown. The Kleenoil Filter Cartridge absorbs all free and emulsified water and gradually removes contaminant particles down to less than ISO 14/9 or NAS 1638 class 6 equivalent. It therefore extends oil life through the removal of the oxidation catalysts and at the same time extends component life. The system can also be clean and transfer unused oil (ISO 16/11) prior to use. The Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System Data Sheet Level of filtration applying to all units - BS 5540/4, ISO 14/9 and equivalent NAS 1638 class 6. Water removal to <0.05% up to capacity of cartridges which is 0.26 gallons (1.2 liters) each. Flow Rate: It is impossible to state an exact flow rate because it is dependent upon many factors such as viscosity, temperature, and a degree of contamination of fluid, and also pump pressure and degree of contamination of cartridges. As an approximate guide, the flow of 32 sec. Hydraulic oil at room temperature through new Kleenoil Filter Cartridges will be:
If faster flows are required they can be achieved by specifying alternative pumps. Operation: The system is operated by an isolator switch with an 'on/off' lever. A starter and red/green indicator lights can be fitted if required. The unit’s operation is simple. The fluid enters the filter system via the fluid input. There are two outlets: one for filtered fluid and another for non-filtered fluid which is Changing the Kleenoil Filter Cartridges: The Kleenoil Filter Cartridge should be changed if there is a decrease in flow from the filtered outlet or if the reading on the pressure gauge increases without any valve adjustment. As a rule of thumb, Kleenoil suggests changing the cartridge after 250 hours of operation. To change the Kleenoil Filter Cartridge, undo the four hand nuts evenly. Next, remove the lid and pick out the old “O”-ring gasket. Take the new filter cartridge out of the bag and use the bag to cover your hand. With your hand covered, insert a finger in the center brass ring of the old filter and lift the cartridge out. Enclose the old filter within the plastic bag and dispose of it according to local regulations. Then, insert the new filter with the brass ring up into the housing. Install the new “O”-ring into the lid assembly and place it over the canister. Replace and tighten the hand nuts evenly. Do not use force or any type of wrench on those nuts. The machine is now ready to go with the new Kleenoil Filter Cartridge. Transfer Pump Facility: The system can be used as a transfer pump by simply removing the 'quick release' coupling from the filter outlet, and fitting it to the pump outlet, thereby bypassing the filter. Diverter Valve: The newer Mark II model of the Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System now comes equipped with a valve which alternates flow through the filtered and non-filtered outputs. When the yellow lever on the valve is in the horizontal position, the flow will exit via the filtered output. When this lever is in the vertical position, the flow will exit directly via the non-filtered output, reducing cartridge wear. Make sure that lever is firmly set in either one of these positions before use. Pressure Control Valve: These machines are now fitted with a pressure control valve. This valve is preset at the factory and the settings must not be altered. Any tampering with the valve setting will void the warranty. Additional Information For Air-Operated Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System: Kleenoil now offers a Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling System operated by an air pump. Operation of the unit remains the same as the conventional model with some minor differences:
Guarantee: All Kleenoil Mobile Oil Recycling Systems carry a twelve month warranty on all parts. Trouble Shooting: Here are some helpful tips that, if followed, will ensure that the mobile filtration cart works safely and effectively… Do:
