Implementing our Offline HYDAC filters offers multiple advantages, particularly when integrated with the BOB unit. These benefits extend beyond simple filtration. While the initial filter costs may seem high due to shorter change intervals, these intervals will extend as the LO improves (see point 1), resulting in fewer overhauls and a lower need for expensive overhaul kits (see point 2) which will grant you a favorable ROI. Below are key points for your consideration:

1. Enhanced Lubricating Oil Quality

• Cleaner Crankshaft Housing and Circulating LO When using the BOB unit, the replenishment of used ME LO with new oil leads to a cleaner crankshaft housing and improved LO in circulation. By optimizing your system oil and cylinder lubrication oil, this significantly reduce the wear on engine components and enhances overall performance.
• Cleaner Engine Components Regular use of recycled ME LO through the BOB unit and Offline filters results in visibly cleaner surfaces within the crankshaft housing. This reduces friction inside the crankcase and gives proven fuel saving onboard.
• Reduction in Contaminants The Offline HYDAC filters effectively capture contaminants such as 4, 6, and 14-micron particles. Over time, the LO becomes progressively cleaner as these particles are trapped by the filters. (Please refer to the attached LO analysis, highlighting data from Sarnia, including graphical trends.)

2. Cost Savings and Reduced Maintenance on ME LO Purifiers

• Reduced System Oil Losses Unlike purifiers, there are no oil losses from filter operation, leading to cost savings.
• Reduced maintenance and parts costs By relying solely on filters, the need for frequent ME LO purifier maintenance, including overhaul parts and man-hours, is reduced. Additionally, operating costs associated with heating preheaters for the purifier are minimized.
• Energy savings The filter consumes less energy compared to traditional purifiers. By placing the purifier on standby, energy savings are further enhanced due to reduced heating requirements
• Increased system reliability With the purifier on standby, the risk of breakdowns and unscheduled maintenance decreases, allowing manpower to focus on other critical tasks.
• Simplified operations Replacing filter elements is a straightforward task compared to overhauling a purifier, effectively removing human error, and reducing the workload.

3. Return of Investment

• Long-term financial gains The initial investment in Offline filters and integration with the BOB unit is offset by cumulative savings in maintenance, energy costs, and extended equipment life, resulting in a favorable return on investment.
