The reported problem
Filtertechnik describes a Nottingham toy manufacturer experiencing hydraulic-component damage and frequent oil replacement on injection-moulding machines. This is an overseas supplier-reported case, not a Kleenoil South Africa installation.
The reported intervention
The supplier describes a portable kidney-loop system using four Hippo filters to address particulate and water contamination. It reports a move from quarterly to annual hydraulic-oil changes. This is a reported outcome on that application, not a guaranteed extension for another machine.
What remains unproven for your plant
The narrative is not a complete independently audited trial dataset. It does not establish equivalence between every Hippo cartridge and our listed part numbers. We have not verified its customer records or transferred its prices, savings or cleanliness claims into our product specifications.
Build a locally useful comparison
For your own trial, capture asset duty, fluid and sample methods, existing service costs, approved targets, cartridge use, top-ups and follow-up results. Record concurrent repairs and changes in operation. Agree the review and maintenance approval before installation.
- Keep original laboratory reports
- Include installation, analysis and consumable costs
- Explain differences between baseline and trial duty
