The T3 is a 30-gallon tank, a filter and a pump on four wheels. It fills itself, filters oil already in a reservoir, and dispenses into whatever needs topping up — so one unit covers the whole job rather than needing a cart, a drum and a transfer pump.
Most filtration equipment does one thing. A filter cart cleans what is already in a reservoir; a drum topper filters what comes out of a drum; a transfer pump moves oil but does not clean it. The T3 does all three, because it carries its own 30-gallon carbon steel tank.
Fill the tank through the unit’s own filter and it becomes a clean-oil supply. Run it as an off-line loop and it cleans a reservoir without the tank being involved. Pump from the tank and it dispenses filtered oil into whatever needs topping up. On four wheels, one person moves it between all three jobs.
A desiccant breather is fitted as standard, so the oil in the tank stays dry between uses rather than drawing in moist air — the failure mode that undoes most clean-oil storage.
D-Series — 5″ × 14″
M-Series — 5.06″ × 10.86″
The two series take different elements — different length, thread and pressure rating — so stock to the series you run. Outside Canada the D-Series water-removal element is P1048WR-USA.
Both series use the same 30-gallon tank, four-wheel frame, pump and motor options. They differ in the filter heads, how the change-out indicator reads, how fine the standard elements filter, and weight.

Medium pressure cast aluminium heads with slide-bar indicators, shipping with water-removal and 7 micron elements. An electric indicator option is available where units are monitored rather than checked by eye.

Aluminium heads with pop-up indicators that trigger at 50 psid, shipping with water-removal and finer 3 micron elements. Around 25 lb lighter than the D-Series.
