Conveyor belts are very important for the production in mines since they transport the material between the different sites in the mine. Conveyor belts operate under rough environmental conditions leading to high ISO cleanliness level of the oil. Typical ISO level in gearbox oil is 22/21/17 without CJC™ Oil Filters, but recommended ISO level is 16/14, if conveyors are to work reliably and effectively.
The gearbox oil systems are typically 150-600L, and the rough environmental conditions cause water ingress, particle contamination from dust, and sludge from oil degradation. The contamination leads to abrasion on parts and components and consequent frequent service and replacement of components. Most importantly, the effect of contaminated oil is down-time and lost production.
Effective Offline Oil Filtration using e.g. CJC™ Fine Filter HDU 15/25 or CJC™ Fine Filter HDU 27/27 dramatically increases the reliability and lifetime of the conveyor system and the gearbox.
Due to the depth filtration and the capability of removing the high amount of dirt from the oil, it is possible to considerably reduce oil changes and maintenance costs and achieve an extremely fast pay-back time.
