Environmental/H&S benefits of FLUITEC

In addition to providing effective and premium technologies, Fluitec also delivers a massive positive environmental impact to the sustainability credential of their clients.
Beyond the financial savings, your organization will also benefit from a reduction of Green House Gas (GHG) emissions.
Fluitec aims to deliver client value by maximizing the life of their rotating equipment assets (not only of their fluids) through the Fill4Life™ programme.
Fill4Life not only extends the life of equipment & fluids but also supports the customers’ quality and maintenance programmes by minimizing their overall costs and waste.
All industrial lubricant applications have the potential to be Fill4Life fluids by minimizing contaminant ingression, removing oil degradation by-products and replenishing sacrificial additive components,
all while monitoring the health of the fluid.
Fluitec’s inspirational vision is to deliver proven technologies that move industries closer to
Fill4Life lubrication.

Problems Fluitec Helps Solve

Fluitec helps to not only measure their customers’ fluid contamination but to offer them a full range of solutions that will efficiently treat and remove the contamination whilst also enhancing those fluids to treat them as assets & not consumables.

Is your site dealing with any of these issues?

Oil analysis reports showing critical contamination
Varnish build-up in turbine, hydraulic or compressor systems

Fluitec PRODUCTS

RULER® V™

Ruler V Antioxidant Monitoring

With enhanced processing, higher resolution, RULER® V™ provides critical information on the health of your lubricant.
Discover oxidation earlier than with any other technologies.

Oils do more than just lubricate. They are an historical archive, giving you a remarkably accurate documentation of machine events and contaminant ingressions.
Can we access this valuable information?
The RULER® V™ provides the full picture of a fluid’s antioxidant health – it’s a window into the health of your lubricant. This technology is a critical part of an effective condition monitoring program.

Pricing

MPC™

Maximizing Asset Life Through Technology

Membrane Patch Colorimetry (MPC) test is a quick, cost-effective way of assessing your oil’s varnish potential.
Allows real time on-site determination of the condition of your lubricant.
Data results are captured & stored in text & audio captions for quick analysis.

Pricing

VITA ESP II

Contamination Control Unit, Vita delivers Electrophysical
Separation Process

Electrophysical Separation Process™ (ESP) relies on the principles of ‘chemisorption’.
ESP selectively removes oil degradation products that are in suspension or in solution.
Does not disturb the fluid’s additive system.
ESP is fully customised for each application & is selected based on oil type & condition.

VITA ESP III

Contamination Control Unit, Vita delivers Electrophysical
Separation Process
For reservoirs 13,000 litres to 30,000 litres

Pricing

ESP V100 & V200 Contamination Control Units

Designed for integration directly into the packages lube oil system

Fluitec’s ESP™ V100 and V200 contamination control units have been specially designed for integration directly into the equipment’s lube oil system. They can provide maximum flexibility for controlling contaminants in critical lubrication systems. The ESP V100 and V200 units are suitable for compressors, steam turbines & gas turbines including SOLAR brand and other gas turbine packages. This eliminates the need for a kidney-loop filtration system by providing a stainless-steel, pressure-tested housing designed to be plumbed directly into the gas turbine’s lube oil system.
