Product Details
Convenient, portable filtration in a compact design that you can carry wherever you need to go.
For filtering mineral-based industrial oils and most synthetic oils with a maximum operating viscosity range of ISO 10-460 (2000ssu/431cSt) at 100°F/38°C within ambient temperature ranges of -8°F to 104°F (-22°C to 40°C)
Portable drum toppers are the perfect tool to purify new oil, recondition contaminated systems, flush new equipment before a startup or periodically decontaminate systems to meet required target cleanliness levels. These devices are portable and can be set-up directly on top of a drum and act as offline filters for equipment by removing moisture and dirt from oil. The drum topper includes a heavy-duty aluminum frame, two filters providing two-stage filtration, differential pressure filter gauges and clear, reinforced PVC hoses to confirm fluid flow visually.
Chase Filters & Components designs and manufactures filters for all major industries and is committed to producing the highest performing, most reliable and safest filter solutions. The drum topper is just one example of the many superior filter products we offer.
Portable Oil Filter Product Details
Our drum topper offers convenient, portable filtration in a compact design that you can carry wherever you need to go. Because all new fluids out of the drum contain contaminants, the topper’s primary purpose is to filter new drum oil. It mounts quickly and is a handy device to fill small totes. The compact design allows easy storage and maintenance.

Drum Topper Applications
In addition to filtering, drum toppers are optimal for cleanly dispensing and transferring new oil to machinery and containers. These toppers are also ideal for flushing systems needed only mechanical separation.
Specific applications include:
- Pre-filtering new oil.
- Dispensing new oil.
- Flushing new or repaired systems.
- Decontaminating systems.
- Removing used oil.
- Topping of reservoirs.
- Collecting samples for analysis.
We manufacture this unit specifically for offline and secondary filtration, as it is an ineffective inline filtration solution. It works well in indoor and outdoor general-use environments. For best results, place the drum topper at the same level or below the equipment you’re filtering, within reach of the standard 6-foot hoses.
This unit operates optimally in low-traffic areas, right-side-up and on level surfaces.
