Documented, audited and independently verified across mining, heavy transport and industrial fleet operations.
Cleaner fluids deliver a compounding dividend across fuel, lubrication and maintenance — simultaneously.
The cost of filtration is predictable. The cost of component failure is not — and it is always higher.
Leading equipment manufacturers specify fluid cleanliness targets that FLAC Guard meets or exceeds as standard — delivering ISO 14/11 against every requirement.
"When the world's largest mining companies choose a filtration system, they validate it against the harshest conditions on earth. FLAC Guard passes."
From iron ore to diamonds, from OEM partnerships to independent mine sites — consistent, measurable and independently verified improvements, including 7+ years at Geita Gold Mine.
Oil cleanliness held to 500-hour standards while running 1,000 hours continuously — allowing the mine to double its fleet at the same service cost and labour complement. Haul-truck availability rose from 90% to 95%.
Breakdown-related maintenance cost reduced from ZAR 23 million to ZAR 11 million in year one, ZAR 5 million in year two, and ZAR 4 million in year three using the FLAC Guard programme.
DP1500 with a C11 engine after 1,580 hours without an oil change: copper improved 188×, iron 4.3×, lead 11×. Service intervals extended 250 → 1,000 hours, with 78% oil saving and 2× machine life.
Barloworld officially advise clients that the best service provider is the FLAC Guard programme, recommending additional filtration on each engine with continuous support and backup data from FLAC Guard experts.
