Hydraulic Filter - High-performance Element With Pleated Star Design | Enhance System Reliability, Reduce Contamination, Minimize Downtime

Contamination is still the main reason for trouble and down times of a hydraulic system. Contamination is already created during the manufacturing the components and in addition the fluid has basic contamination. During operation of the system further contamination is created by abrasion and seal material. Filters in a hydraulic system have to reduce this contamination to an acceptable level. Thus by filter, conditions are created for a trouble free and low-maintenance operation.

A hydraulic filter consists of the element, the housing and additional accessories like by pass valve, contamination indicator, reverse flow valve etc. The housing is made up of the head and the bowl. The element consists of the internal body, the pleated star and the end plates. With only few exceptions, the fluid flows in filter -out- to- in.
