Hydraulic systems operating on the energy of compressed fluid are used in almost all industries and construction. But long-term intensive operation of hydraulic equipment is impossible without effective cleaning of the working fluid of the hydraulic system, which is carried out by filters. Filter elements prevent foreign particles from entering the system and reduce wear on its components.
Main types of filters for hydraulic systems
Depending on the functional purpose, there are several types of filter elements:
- Suction filter — mounted inside or on the hydraulic tank, serves to clean various types of oils from coarse mechanical impurities. A properly selected filter element allows you to get rid of air bubbles in the working fluid. Degree of purification — 60–250 microns.
- Pressure — located between the pump and the part of the system that needs protection. Used to protect the solenoid valve from small particles. These high pressure filters for hydraulic systems are made from inorganic fibers impregnated with resins.
- Drain — installed on the return path of the working fluid flow before draining into the tank. Intended for its finest cleaning. It is a cylinder made of paper or corrugated chemical fiber. To increase structural rigidity, some models use metal frames. Drain filter elements are usually installed in pairs. When one element becomes dirty, the system switches to another, which avoids downtime.
