RESULTS: (Photo’s A & B) After 3 weeks of operation the magnetic filter was removed and a significant amount of ferrous metal was trapped on the magnetic filter rod. This contamination is filtered from the oil down to submicron levels thereby reducing premature wear, extending the oil life planning and the gear box component life. This will result in increased operational time improving production. The OEI magnetic
