When it comes to maintaining machinery in industries like construction, agriculture, and trucking, efficient and clean oil changes are essential. Traditional methods can be messy, time-consuming, and less reliable in preventing oil leaks. However, using a suction unit for oil changes can streamline the process, offering a host of benefits, particularly when combined with Femco’s specialized drain plugs.
Efficient Removal of Fluids
The core function of a suction unit is the quick and efficient removal of waste oil. Utilizing a vacuum, it fully extracts oil from even the deepest corners of the engine, ensuring minimal residue is left behind. This makes for a cleaner oil change, and the rapid speed at which waste oil is drained reduces down time in the shop.
Portable and Durable
Suction units are designed to be mobile and sturdy. Whether you’re working in the field or in the shop, these units are easy to transport, making on-site oil changes more convenient than ever. Built with durable materials, they are made to last, even in rugged environments.
On-Site Flexibility
One of the standout advantages of using a suction unit is its usability on location. Whether you’re working on a construction site or servicing a fleet of trucks, you can perform oil changes where your equipment is, without the need for a full workshop setup.
Reliable Under Pressure
In demanding environments, the last thing you want is a tool that fails. Suction units are engineered to perform reliably, even under intense pressure. This ensures that your maintenance tasks run smoothly, without unexpected hiccups.
Closed System for Clean Oil Changes
Traditional oil changes often come with the risk of spills or leaks, which can be hazardous and lead to wasted time on cleanup. Suction units operate within a closed system, eliminating risk of oil spills and ensuring a safer and cleaner working environment.
At Femco Draintechnology, we’ve designed our drain plugs to be compatible with any suction unit on the market. This flexibility ensures that no matter which suction unit you’re using, our plugs will integrate seamlessly. Connecting the plug to the unit is made even easier with a quick-disconnect coupling and hose, allowing for swift and hassle-free oil changes.
To further support efficient oil changes, Femco offers its own evacuation unit, the Mobile Service Unit (MSU) 100. The MSU 100 is a fully contained mobile cart system that holds 100 liters of fluids and can be taken to the equipment, connected directly to the installed Femco® drain plug, and vacuum used oil from the engine through a fully enclosed mess-free process. For more information on the MSU100 and how it can enhance your oil change process, visit MSU100 Evacuation Unit by Femco.
The MSU100 is designed for the European market. In addition to this, Femco also offers similar vacuum pump systems in North America and other parts of the world. Feel free to contact us for more information.
