PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Driven by the demand to continuously lower overall operating costs, manufacturers around the world are striving to improve process reliability and uptime. One way they are achieving this is by employing advanced filtration technologies such as Pall Ultipleat® SRT filters to improve the fluid cleanliness levels of their systems. During Noria’s 14th Annual Reliable Plant 2013 Conference and Exhibition (April 16th-18th) in Columbus, Ohio, Pall experts will outline examples of the latest technologies for contamination control for hydraulic and lube systems. “Reliable Plant 2013” is an international conference and exhibition for machinery lubrication, oil analysis, and reliability professionals.
Pall’s Christian Bauer, Ph.D., Mrinal Mahapatro, Ph.D., and Eric Krause will present four case studies highlighting contamination control, filter performance, cleanliness monitoring, and system performance:
