series of 6 acts

KRAZ, KamAZ, YuMZ-6 diesels: compression and oil pressure rose on every machine

Compression increased and evened out across cylinders, oil pressure rose on every vehicle in the fleet. 14–22 % — cylinder compression, 17–27.7 → 22–30 kgf/cm²; 11–33 % — oil pressure at 2000 rpm, 2–6 → 4–7.1 kgf/cm² (2001).

CUSTOMER’S CONCLUSION“I consider the use of XADO technology for restoring worn mechanisms under normal operating conditions expedient when 25–75 % of the engine service life is used up and there are no oil leaks”S. A. Brusov, Head of Vehicle Operations, AUTT-1, Almetyevneft NGDU, 4.09.2001, contract No. 15 of 23.08.2001

Compression in kgf/cm²; the average gain is taken from the “Results” section of each act. The lower the initial compression, the larger the gain: growth is capped by the factory nominal.

Pressure in kgf/cm². The increase was recorded on all six machines and in both modes — at idle and under load.

What the acts recorded

The acts of Almetyevsk UTT-1 record the same thing for every machine: “Compression increased by an average of 16.8 %, evened out across the cylinders. Oil pressure increased” — so for KRAZ-250, and likewise for the other five, from 6 to 27.53 %. On not a single machine did compression stay the same, and on not a single one did oil pressure drop. All six engines completed the cycle in regular service, without disassembly and without taking the machines out of work: between the measurements the vehicles covered from 1 456 to 10 154 km, and the tractor excavator 390 engine hours. For the KamAZ-5320 the act adds a service observation: “According to the driver the truck became more powerful; previously a hill climb was managed in 3rd gear with difficulty, now it climbs easily in 4th”. Following the work, the customer recognised the use of the technology as expedient at 25–75 % of engine service life used up.

XADO Pilot Testing Programme

Application submitted by

Pilot treatment on the enterprise's equipment

  • any oil- or grease-lubricated assemblies: gearboxes, engines, compressors, bearings and others;
  • treatment within the regular operating cycle, without halting production;
  • instrumental measurements before and after: vibration, temperature, power consumption or current;
  • procedure for the specific assembly, dose calculation and support from a XADO engineer.

After the application, a XADO engineer will agree the units and the list of measurements with you.
