Fleet Manager now on USB stick

Since the Millenium change, thousands of end-users around the world are successfully using the ‘Fleetguard Master Catalog and its incorporated, interactive Fleet Manager. The tool allows to quickly and conveniently cross reference original equipment manufacturer and competitor parts to the Fleetguard equivalent, or select specific equipment applications for various market segments (On-Highway, Off-Highway, Industrial, etc.).

Fleet Manager is the popular, interactive fleet management tool to configure and archive customized fleets, identify service intervals for multiple pieces of equipment, run individual reports, print rack labels, e-mail orders, and conveniently download the most current Fleetguard product information with a single mouse-click whenever an update is available. Until today the Master Catalog/ Fleet Manager was available on a Compact Disc but as modern laptops no longer have a disk drive, Fleet Manager will now come in a different format. As of July, the Master Catalog/ Fleet Manager will be made available for Fleetguard distributor partners on a USB stick. As the actual program version (7.1) has not changed, customers who already have Fleet Manager installed should continue using their current version and upload the frequent product data updates with a single mouse-click through the internet.

Paradigm shift in the European market from Hybrid towards OAT type Coolant technology

Cummins Filtration ‘Life of the Engine’ OAT Coolants represent the most modern coolant chemistry available

Today, we distinguish between three terms that describe additive chemistry: conventional, hybrid and OAT (Organic Additive Technology). Conventional coolants use the oldest additive technology and typically have the lowest initial purchase cost, but also have short service intervals and the shortest overall life. They have the highest total cost of ownership and can cost up to ten times more than a premium coolant over the life of a vehicle. Hybrid coolants typically have a longer life and service interval than conventional coolants, but may require more maintenance than OAT type coolants. OAT coolants use the newest additive chemistry and will typically have the fewest maintenance requirements. OAT coolants are also more tolerant of system contamination than other coolant types and they are the preferred coolant type of OEMs. Commercial Heavy Duty OAT coolants have coolant lives that range from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 km depending on the manufacturer. Fleetguard Fleetcool OAT and ES Compleat™ OAT are amongst the few products in the industry that can claim a 1,500,000 km life. Using a 1,500,000 km coolant can save owners up to 35% in total costs over coolants with a 1,000,000 km life. Please contact your authorized Fleetguard Distributor partners for more details.

A Premium Training Programme for Premium Customers

In 2015 Cummins Filtration in Europe designed a programme for selected premium aftermarket customers who have proven their commitment to the Fleetguard brand. The so-called ‘Filter Expert’ programme is designed to bring the Filtration product knowledge to one appointed employee of the distributor partner, creating a new level of expertise at the distributor partner’s fingertips. The 1st edition of the qualification programme was successfully completed in March 2016 with participants from across Europe and the Middle East. The programme usually consists of 2 x 3 full days of training of which one week is always facilitated at the Cummins Filtration manufacturing site in Izmir, Turkey.

At the end of the training, participants receive an exclusive certificate and valuable technical information and tools which are only made available to a certified ‘Filter Expert’. The 1st edition of the programme turned out to be very successful; consequently, the 2nd Filterexpert training edition with a group of premium German customers has commenced in Germany at the beginning of June. “We are very happy to see how much our customers appreciate the training and the opportunities it offers” says Dick Kuypers, Director Aftermarket Sales. “The continuous technical and commercial support is a win/win - it helps our customers to successfully sell the Fleetguard brand and it also is the foundation for us to convey the Fleetguard value package and generate loyal customers”

Lube Filters for EURO VI Engines

In 2014 Cummins Filtration extended its product offering with Lube Filters specifically designed for EURO VI engines and applications (for Renault, Scania and Volvo). To streamline the product offering and because the new designed EURO VI type Lube Filters also work perfectly on older applications (and are compatible with all types of lube oils), we advise you that Europe (only) will no longer sell the legacy parts but only the new, EURO VI compliant part numbers. The table below is showing the OEM’s and the products impacted by the change.

Each of the (old) part numbers displayed can no longer be ordered once inventory is depleted.

The new 2016 editions of both the ‘Bus Applications Guide’ (LT36476EU) as well as the ‘EU Truck Applications Guide’ (LT36204EU) already incorporate the change and only show the new part number.
Please kindly take this change into consideration for future orders.
