Oil and particle analysis
Particle counts are taken from a sample of the system and reported using the ISO 4406 cleanliness code. The gap between the current state and the target becomes concrete.

Industrial filtration and process engineering
In hydraulic and oil-based systems, particle and water contamination is a major cause of pump, valve and cylinder failure. Tulpar starts by measuring the contamination, then designs a filtration solution matched to the system’s actual needs. Process engineering and large-scale, plant-specific designs are carried out by our in-house expert team.

The problem
Contamination is invisible, but its cost is not.
Most problems that slow production or wear equipment early begin with small particles in the system. Field data shows that more than 85% of hydraulic system failures are caused by oil contamination. By the time they are noticed, parts often need replacing and production has stopped.
- Early wear in pumps, valves and cylinders
- Frequent oil changes and unplanned stoppages
- Product quality drift caused by dust or particles
- Energy loss from clogged filters and high pressure drop
Scope of service
From measurement to maintenance plan.
Every project follows the same sequence, but each system gets its own diagnosis.
Filter selection and calculation
The required filtration rating, flow and permitted pressure drop are calculated together. The filter is chosen by micron rating and performance class.
Fitting and integration
Filters are placed in the existing line with service access and maintenance time in mind. Bypass and measurement points are added where needed.
Replacement and monitoring plan
A change schedule is set using differential pressure indicators and periodic analysis. We recommend deciding based on data rather than a fixed calendar.
Our partner · Pro Filtre
Field-proven filtration technology, with our own engineering.
For oil-cleaning units we draw on the product and field experience of our filtration partner Pro Filtre. The Pro-60 and Pro-240 models are designed to clean long-used, contaminated oil to close to 100%.
- The unit connects to the system in bypass; it takes oil from the tank, cleans it and returns it, so the system always runs on clean oil
- A 1-micron cotton filter and a steam unit for water removal
- Closed and open circuit installation options
- Continuous filter condition monitoring via a pressure gauge
Process engineering and large-scale, plant-specific designs are carried out by our in-house expert team. We combine our partner’s product technology with our own engineering design, so the solution rests on both field-proven hardware and your system’s actual needs.

Sample case · Filtration
Reducing downtime caused by oil contamination
This case illustrates our method; it is not real customer data. It will be replaced with approved real field work as it becomes available.
Problem
Frequent failures and unplanned downtime caused by contaminated oil in hydraulic and oil-based systems.
Approach
Through on-site analysis we identified the source of contamination; we proposed a bypass oil cleaning unit connected to the system and a maintenance schedule.
Result
Changes in downtime frequency and maintenance cost will be measured in real field work and published here.
Process
Four stages, starting on site.
The output of each stage is the input of the next.
01
Measure the current state
Oil samples are taken and operating conditions and failure history are collected.
02
Find the source
We identify where the contamination comes from and which components it affects.
03
Design the solution
We propose the filtration configuration, installation point and service interval.
04
Commission and monitor
Results are compared using the same measurements, and adjustments are made if needed.
Deliverables

Frequently asked questions
About filtration.
Which systems do you do filtration projects for?
We work on hydraulic, lubrication and cooling systems, and on dust and particle control in production lines. Suitability is assessed in the first analysis.
What is the first step in a project?
Taking an oil sample from the existing system and running a particle analysis is usually the lowest-cost starting point. The result shows which solution is needed.
When should I change the filter?
Differential pressure readings and analysis results should be read together. Changing on a fixed schedule can waste money or leave you late.
Do you offer solutions for dust filtration too?
Yes. We design extraction and filtration based on the dust or particle source in the production line.
