Des-Case announces Equipment Reliability Services offerings

Monday, May 31st, 2010

Des-Case Corporation announced the launch of its Equipment Reliability Services (ERS), a line of products and services providing even more tools for companies trying to keep contamination under control.

Des-Case Equipment Reliability Services are designed to:

  • Critically evaluate an array of equipment information: the application, the industry, the environment the unit is in, the particular fluid used, the condition of the lubricant, and a variety of other factors
  • Offer suggested procedures to use for your application and future actions to consider
  • Help perform cost-benefit analyses for your applications to identify the most cost effective options for your situation
  • Give access to a technical help desk with experienced advisors to discuss your issues and plan your next steps
  • Provide proven next steps and recommended solutions based on industry best practices

Des-Case Equipment Reliability Services are divided into three main categories: Evaluation, Lubricant Sampling Systems, and Analysis and Recommendations.

Each category of ERS can be used independently – but together help ensure that best practices are used from the time you begin to look at the problem until the solution is deployed.

Des-Case Corporation introduces Extreme Duty breather

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

Des-Case Corporation today announced the extension of its full line breather offering with the launch of the Extreme Duty breather.

The Extreme Duty breather has been engineered to take contamination control to a whole new level, standing up to a wide variety of applications in challenging environments. An automotive-grade housing and a solid standpipe design provide increased vibration resistance, temperature range and chemical compatibility. Three layers of particulate filters remove airborne contamination as small as 0.3µ and water blocking media prevents free water from entering the breather. An integrated check valve system extends the product life even further.

Ideal for many of the toughest applications – hydraulic and gearbox applications in washdown areas, mobile equipment, higher temperature and vibration areas – the Extreme Duty breather gets contamination control “done.”
