• Contamination management pertains to the analysis and optimization of processes with regard to the cleanliness of components, systems and the purity of the fluids used. In today’s hydraulic systems, the hydraulics and mobile hydraulics industry, smaller, lighter and more powerful components are currently being used. The use of these components also means that the demand of system cleanliness is now much higher, as has been shown by various studies. Schroeder Industries is one of the first companies to respond to the need for such equipment and has been providing diagnostic solutions known for their diversity, capability and precision. This equipment includes TestMate® permanent-mounted and portable contamination monitors and sensors, Hydraulic Test Benches, Patch Test Kits and In-Line and Off-line systems incorporating SMART® technology.

• Replacement Coalescing Elements: Schroeder BestFit® Coalescing Filters are manufactured using multiple layers, depending on the part number, to meet or exceed OEM element performance. All coalescing elements feature a hydrophilic microglass core that condenses micro-emulsions into water droplets that fall from the downstream side of the element. The density of this microglass core changes throughout its thickness to optimize the coalescing process. Where applicable, upstream pleated cellulose pre-filter layers are an integral part of the element. The pre-filters provide excellent fuel cleanliness and also protect the coalescing core throughout its life.
  Benefits: The single pass efficiencies are comparable or higher than the OEM element. A wide variety of Schroeder coalescing cartridges replace most manufacturers’ elements. All end caps, seal types, and medias are engineered to offer superior performance. Schroeder replacement elements are direct dimensional and performance replacements.
