Noria.com 800-597-5460 Certification Series Level I & II Presented by Noria Corporation 15 Why Today's Regulations Demand a Comprehensive Fuel Filtration Approach Kristine Mikulan, HYDAC Reducing particle and water contamination in diesel fuels is essential to fulfill the latest EPA standards and ensure uninterrupted, cost-effective operation. Today's high-pressure common-rail diesel engines have been designed specifically to meet Tier 4 emission levels and demand complete particulate and water removal. This session will show how filter systems can achieve the required low diesel fuel contaminating levels, why fuel filtration is needed, how to remove particles and water from diesel fuel, and strategies for an effective diesel fuel conditioning process. Understanding Filter Debris Analysis Scott Shoemaker, Analysts Inc. Wear metals and contaminants are sometimes overlooked in routine oil analysis due to the size and source of material. Many people are not aware of the options offered by filter analysis for identifying larger debris that is not detected through routine spectroscopy. This session will discuss the history of filter debris analysis, how to identify contaminants and sources of filter debris, and how to choose the right test procedure based on detection limits. Foaming and Air-Release Characteristics of Industrial Gear Oils Rüdiger Krethe, OilDoc The formation of foam or finely dispersed air bubbles is one of the most frequently discussed phenomena occurring in gearbox operation. Excessive foam can lead to serious operational problems as well as safety and environmental hazards. This session will explain the various causes of in- service lubricant foaming, particularly in wind turbine gearboxes, as well as how to prevent foaming and finely dispersed air bubbles in gearbox lubrication. Attendees will also learn about the different standardized test procedures available for determining the foaming and air-release characteristics of lubricating oils. 1-800-597-5460 | Conference.ReliablePlant.com
