About the Book
Filters must be integral parts of hydraulic systems to ensure the proper operation of the system’s pumps, valves, and actuators. As the requirements of the hydraulic systems are demanding, the prescribed cleanliness levels of their fluid media must be achieved under all operating conditions. For this reason, it is essential to understand the different types of hydraulic filters and their performance ratings.
This book presents the principles of filtration in hydraulic systems. These principles include the materials of filter media, various designs of filters, and the typical filter locations in hydraulic systems. Further, this book describes the filter element performance ratings, such as the beta ratio and efficiency, and the multi-pass test to determine such ratings.
