Hydraulic Filter Element – The Core Component of Hydraulic Systems

Hydraulic filer element is an important component of the hydraulic system used to filter out particles and rubber impurities in the system and ensure the cleanness of the hydraulic system. As a key part of the filter, hydraulic filter element performs filtration and/or dewatering functions in the filter housing.

Hydraulic filter element is composed of pleated filtration layers, support layers and end caps. Support layers are located at the innermost part of the filter element while pleated filtration layers surround support layers, forming a stabilizing support cylinder; Both ends of pleated filtration layers and the support layer are well sealed by end caps. In this way, hydraulic filter element can effectively perform actual filtration function and ensure the smooth operation of the hydraulic system.

• High dirt holding capacity
• High pressure stability and low pressure loss
• High temperature resistance, sometimes up to 135 °C.
• Many filter ratings are available for your option including 2–5 μm high precision filtration, 10–15 μm medium precision filtration and 15–25 μm low precision filtration.
• To compress the finished shape size of hydraulic filter elements and increase the filtration area, filtration layers are generally made into a corrugated shape and the pleat height of the hydraulic filter element is 20 mm below.
• Hydraulic filter elements generally withstand a pressure difference of 0.35–0.4 MPa. However, some filter elements need to withstand higher pressure difference.

The replacement cycle of hydraulic filter elements depends on many factors, including hydraulic system working conditions, operating conditions, hydraulic oil quality, filter element types and specifications.s

You can replace the filter element based on the working hours of the hydraulic system. Typically, the replacement cycle is every 500 to 1000 hours or every 12 to 18 months.

• Selection of filter rating

  We recommend that you observe the components of the hydraulic or lubricating circuits that are most susceptible to contamination and determine the oil cleanliness class, and therefore the filter rating of the entire system. In critical applications, we recommend that you separate the hydraulic and lubricating circuits.

• Selection of appropriate filter material

  Different element designations, optimized to the respective application, have been generated due to the diversity of application for lubricating and hydraulic filters.

We offer a wide range of filter elements for you to choose from, if you have any question or demand, please feel free to contact us at any time.
