Oil filtration is critical in heavy machinery maintenance because it prevents contaminants from causing abrasive wear, corrosion, and system failures. Heavy machinery often operates under extreme conditions, making it susceptible to rapid degradation if lubricants are compromised. Effective filtration extends the life of both the oil and the machinery, reduces maintenance frequency, and ensures reliable performance. It also contributes to safety by preventing malfunctions that could lead to accidents.
