Schroeder Industries Awarded Patent for Unique Fully Automated Filtration Station(TM)


Touch screen controlled automatic flushing and filling system with particle monitoring

Leetsdale, PA- Schroeder Industries, a recognized leader in filtration and fluid conditioning products, has received a patent award (U.S. Patent #6,979,397 B2) for the first-of-its-kind Filtration Station (FS). The FS is a fully automated, touch screen controlled flushing and filling system with integral particle monitoring. It is an ideal solution for a range of applications, including in-plant service, large mobile equipment dealer networks, independent leasers of mobile equipment, OEM manufacturers, lubricant reclamation/recycling, and bulk oil handlers.

With its ability to print ISO cleanliness reports, Schroeder's Filtration Station provides hydraulic component and assembly OEMs a means to automatically achieve desired equipment roll-off cleanliness levels. The FS will also fill a measured volume of flushing fluid, circulate and filter the fluid, and drain a hydraulic system, component or circuit, all while providing an on-screen analysis of the fluid's changing cleanliness levels.

The FS removes solid particulates, water, or both, and is engineered to accommodate varying oil flows and viscosities. All components and connections are designed to minimize dirt entrapment. The FS requires minimal supervision, allowing operators to perform other tasks simultaneously.
