Northern Alberta Oil Sands Mine
Mag-Shield® contain debris and prevent spread after torque converter failure for CAT 777D truck.
The Solution
Prior to this failure, Mag-Shield® were outfitted to the truck’s hydraulic system as part of a fleet installation. Mag-Shield® effectively captured ferrous debris from the fluid returning to the reservoir before it reached the inlet side of the system, without causing aeration, cavitation, or a restriction to fluid flow. Use of Mag-Shield® resulted in reduced downtime, repair costs, premature component wear and maintenance costs.
Side-by-side comparison of new Mag-Shield® to those that were removed from the CAT 777D post torque converter failure. All the particles on the dirty Mag-Shield® were prevented from continuously circulating through the system.
