Cleaning filters is far cheaper than replacing them.

MONTREAL - Ever get fed up with replacing expensive air filters in your surface equipment? Diversi-Tech has a low-cost option - clean your filters rather than replace them using its Green filter cleaning machine. It is already in operation at several major mining companies around the world.

Here is Diversi-Tech's compelling case history.

Assume your mine has 50 pieces of surface equipment and every 400 hours your mechanics replace the filters at a cost of $165 each. And there is a disposal cost of $10 each for used filters. It adds up to $420,000 per year. Compare that to the $19,750 purchase price (including inspection station) of a filter cleaning machine. Users will save over $400,000 the first year.

There are many reasons for using Diversi-Tech's filter cleaner. Today's filters are designed to be cleaned with a dry air system. Cleaned and reused filters can be even more efficient than new ones, thus prolonging diesel engine performance. There is an environmental advantage in producing less waste. The machine provides safe, dust-free operation.

The manufacturer has made a unit that accepts primary filters from 165 to 510 mm in diameter and up to 810 mm long. The LCD screen user interface allows the operator to choose from as many as eight cleaning cycles. Loading the filters is quick, and cleaning takes only five minutes. The unit uses three-phase power, just plug it in and it is ready to go. Dry compressed air is supplied through a 12.5-mm line.
