“The Eco-Purâ„¢ is the result of rigorous design standards and more than 12 months of extensive laboratory and field testing,” says Bill Priest, vice president of engineering for Oil Purification Systems. “The OPS-1â„¢ System has been widely used over a number of years to reduce oil maintenance costs. We have been able to take that technology a step further and use even more innovative materials and design specifications to create a product that will continue to help companies meet their preventative maintenance goals now and in the future.”
The Eco-Pur utilizes the advanced components and circuitry available for its electronic controls that continuously monitor temperature and flow to optimize the evaporation process based on an engine’s real-time operation. Additionally, the Eco-Pur will allow flexible product configurations based on a piece of equipment’s specific operating and contamination profile. Because the Eco-Pur has less hardware and a six-position integrated bracket, it is also easier to install and service than its predecessor.
Oil Purification Systems works with each customer to develop a customized plan based on business and operational requirements. This plan includes a review of current preventative maintenance practices and a company’s maintenance goals for the future, a comprehensive return on investment analysis and determining the best filter size for a company’s equipment. Oil Purification Systems also customizes its lube sampling and analysis program to further help companies meet maintenance objectives by doing the following:
– Safely extending oil drain intervals,
– Identifying opportunities for optimizing filtration performance,
– Minimizing downtime by identifying minor problems before they become major failures,
– Migrating to a truly condition-based oil maintenance program, and
– Providing regular reviews to ensure realization of benefits.
“Using our very successful OPS-1â„¢ system as a foundation, we have developed a product that helps companies significantly reduce oil maintenance costs,” says Greg Slawson, chief executive officer for Oil Purification Systems. “With millions of miles and thousands of hours of proven performance, the Eco-Purâ„¢ represents OPS’ commitment to helping our customers save time and money with fewer oil changes, while also protecting the environment.”
The Eco-Pur System will be available in September 2009. Oil Purification Systems will also continue to service its flagship product, the OPS-1 system for existing customers.
