Contamination Control Business Growing over 30%/Year

• 80% of equipment failures due to lubricant contamination. – Water & particle contamination source: • 70% through oil reservoir breather/filler cap• 30% from new lubricant

• Lubricant Contamination can be controlled– Filter new oil before use– Keep it clean and dry with a breather filter

Why?

Beach Filter Products - Confidential

• Lubricant contamination is a leading cause of machinery failure• Cost of removal = 10X cost

of prevention• Contamination is

responsible for as much as 80% of the wear that leads to mechanical failure

- 70% enters through the breather cap- 30% from new oil

The Problem We Help Solve – Contamination

Proactive, Holistic Approach

Particles cause 82% of wear in the 6 main industrial sectors in Canada– National Research Council of Canada

“Bearings can have an infinite life when particles larger than the lubricant film are removed.”– SKF

“Compared to 40-micron filtration…wear was reduced 70% with 15-micron filtration.” – General Motors through SAE

Breather Sizing


Breather “Families”Breather Description Applications

Standard Disposable Breathers

Prevent water ingression by stripping the air of moisture before entering system; incorporates filtration media to 3 micron

Excellent contamination protection for most applications

Hybrid Breathers• Aquaguard®• NEW Aquaguard® V

Incorporates check valves and bladders into the Standard Desiccant Breather, offering additional protection from the elements

Gear drives or other applications that see volume changes mostly due to temperature changes

Non-Desiccant Breathers• NEW BB-ND-35

Barrier protection – can be designed to stop free water, provide oil mist coalecence and ratings down to 1 micron

Mostly in arid environments as they are relatively ineffective at stopping humidity

Extreme Duty Increased airflow, internal check valve system, extra vibration resistance, and one micron filtration

Hydraulic systems, mobile applications, rugged environments

Rebuildable Steel Configured in a similar manner to the Standard Desiccant Breather. Feature stainless or carbon steel housings with refillable components.

Bulk storage tanks, high flow applications, and / or rugged environments


Breather Questions To Ask…

What’s the application?• Main categories: hydraulic, gearbox/pump,

storage

What’s the airflow and reservoir capacity?• Created by the volume changes during the

emptying/filling process &/or by the stroking cylinders

• High flow rates require larger units

What’s the environment?• Examples: washdown area, oil coalescence

needed, gearbox, high humidity, hours of operation

How long does it need to last?• May want to time replacement with regular

maintenance cycle or need to last for extended time (“out of sight”)

Proper sizing ensures a low pressure drop. Published

breather rating should exceed that of system


Breather Selection – High Flow Applications

What to Look For:• Current breather/cap?• Reservoir capacity?• Flow rates (GPM or CFM)?• Does system have accumulator?• Is there possibility of oil mist

conditions?
