REVOLUTION Centrifuge Systems use a continuous flow of crankcase oil to attain a centrifugal force of over 2000 Gs, with no auxiliary power required. This robust operation allows REVOLUTION to remove solid contaminants down to 0.1 micron, which full-flow filters and additional bypass systems often leave behind. Providing 50 times the efficiency and 20 times the dirt-holding capacity of traditional bypass filters, REVOLUTION can double or even triple oil change intervals, saving oil and extending engine life while lowering maintenance costs.
REVOLUTION Centrifuge Systems clean oil while the engine is in operation, collecting the minuscule contaminants produced and compacting them, turning the particles into solid cake for simple disposal. Once the oil is cleaned, REVOLUTION returns it to the sump. The system easily installs by bolting directly to the frame rail design, allowing users to begin saving oil costs immediately. REVOLUTION saves additional time and money with its cleanable, reusable design, and it can be serviced in minutes. Plus, its high-speed turbine delivers more revolutions per minute than competitive centrifuges and greater G-forces, providing more contaminant removal and the best efficiency available.
“The small organic and inorganic contaminants engines generate escape traditional full-flow filtration, leaving particles of carbon, soot, metals and dirt to accumulate in oil,” said Glenn Griffith, REVOLUTION Sales Manager at MagStar. “Most of these are not captured using media-type bypass strategies, and the remaining particles can cause premature wear in piston rings, camshafts, bearings and turbo chargers, increasing the risk of possible failure. By removing these contaminants, REVOLUTION Centrifuge Systems extend oil and filter life by up to 200 percent, and their competitive initial cost and extended long-term maintainability allow the systems to deliver a robust, time saving investment.” Griffith adds, “REVOLUTION also provides the longest warranty in the industry: up to 10 years or 1 million miles. Since REVOLUTION Centrifuge Systems are designed and built in the USA, customers can work directly with us to secure the system they need and service they require—without the additional inconvenience and cost of overseas shipping.”
Along with extending oil and engine life, REVOLUTION Centrifuge Systems provide more environmentally friendly cleaning. The compacted particles extracted by the centrifuge are easily removed and have less impact on the environment. Plus, since oil life is extended due to the REVOLUTION Centrifuge System’s robust capabilities, oil is changed and therefore disposed of less frequently. The used oil is also recyclable and cleaner for the environment.
Applications. REVOLUTION Centrifuge Systems are available in one and two-gallon models and deliver convenient, cost-effective oil cleaning for new and retrofit fleet applications.
