Steam Turbine Oil Conditioning
Since 1943, Kaydon Filtration has been the industry leader in steam turbine oil conditioning, setting the benchmark for reliability and performance across mission-critical applications. Our proven systems deliver exceptional oil cleanliness, extend turbine life, and minimize costly downtime—trusted worldwide for over eight decades to protect the most valuable turbine assets.
The most efficient conditioning system in the market for water removal, TURBO-TOC® removes 100% of damaging water from turbine oil and reduces Total Water Content to 100 ppm (0 ppm free, 0 ppm emulsified, 100 ppm dissolved).
Engineered for high-efficiency fluid conditioning
TURBO-TOC® systems deliver 99% removal of free and emulsified water in a single pass, reducing total water content to below 100 ppm. Designed for continuous-duty operation, units provide variable flow rates—up to 125 gpm—enabling multiple reservoir turnovers per day depending on system size and oil temperature.
This high-frequency circulation supports rapid decontamination, especially after seal failures or water ingress events. TURBO-TOC® units consistently achieve ISO 15/13/11 cleanliness levels and restore turbine oil to “clear and bright” condition, minimizing the risk of varnish formation, bearing wear, and unplanned outages.

TURBINE LIFE
TURBO-TOC® continuously removes harmful contaminates, keeping your oil system flushed and increasing reliability.
REDUCED BEARING
FAILURE
When both water and particulate are brought down to acceptable levels, bearing failures are eliminated.
FEWER FORCED
OUTAGES
A continuous flow filtration system efficiently removes contamination, preventing forced outages.
LESS-COSTLY TURBINE REBUILDS
Clean turbine oil increases turbine dependability and helps reduce repair costs directly associated with contaminated oil.
TURBO-TOC® Series
Stationary Systems
The TURBO-TOC® KL Series is engineered for continuous, high-flow oil conditioning in large turbine lube oil reservoirs, supporting volumes up to 24,000 gallons. With multi-stage coalescing technology, particulate control, and water removal, KL systems are optimized for permanent installation in steam turbine-driven power facilities where uptime, oil cleanliness, and system reliability are critical.
Portable Carts
The TURBO-TOC® KLP Series provides the same fluid cleanliness performance as the KL line in a compact, mobile platform designed for systems up to 1,800 gallons. Ideal for service teams or facilities with multiple smaller reservoirs, KLP units deliver ISO-compliant particulate and water removal with field flexibility, making them a strategic solution for planned maintenance, commissioning, or rotating equipment support.
