The hydraulic oil filter element is marked on the manufacturer’s product sample or nameplate with the nominal filtration accuracy, not the absolute filtration accuracy. Only the β value measured through the test can represent the filtration capacity of the filter. The hydraulic oil filter element should also meet the requirements of pressure loss (the total pressure difference of the high pressure filter is less than 0.1PMa, and the total pressure difference of the return oil filter is less than 0.05MPa) to ensure the optimization of flow and filter element life. So how do we choose the hydraulic oil filter correctly? Dalan hydraulic editor tells you that you need to consider the following five aspects.

    1. Filtration accuracy of hydraulic oil filter element

    First, determine the cleanliness level of the stains according to the needs of the hydraulic system, and then select the filter precision of the oil filter according to the cleanliness level according to the symbol table. The most commonly used hydraulic oil filter element in construction machinery has a nominal filtration degree of 10μm. Hydraulic oil cleanliness (ISO4406) Nominal filtration accuracy of filter element (μm) Application range 13/103 Hydraulic servo valve (with 3μm filter element) 16/135 Hydraulic proportional valve (with 5μm filter element) 18/1510 General hydraulic components ( >10MPa) (with 10μm filter element) 19/1620 general hydraulic components (<10MPa) (with 20μm filter element)

    Hydraulic oil filter

    Since the nominal filtration accuracy cannot truly reflect the filtration capacity of the filter element, the diameter of the largest hard spherical particle that the filter can pass under the specified test conditions is often used as its absolute filtration accuracy to directly reflect the initial filtration of the newly installed filter element. The most important criterion for evaluating the ability of hydraulic oil filter elements is the β value determined according to ISO4572-1981E (multi-pass test), that is, the oil mixed with the standard test powder is circulated through the oil filter for many times, and the oil inlet and outlet are on both sides of the oil filter. ratio of the number of particles.

    2. Flow characteristics

    The flow and pressure drop of the filter element passing through the oil are important parameters of the flow characteristics. The flow characteristic test should be carried out according to the ISO3968-91 standard to draw the flow-pressure drop characteristic curve. Under the rated oil supply pressure, the total pressure drop (the sum of the pressure drop of the filter housing and the pressure drop of the filter element) should generally be below 0.2MPa. Maximum flow: 400lt/min Oil viscosity test: 60to20Cst Minimum flow Turbine: 0℃ 60lt/min Maximum flow Turbine: 0℃ 400lt/min

    3. Filter strength

    The rupture-impact test shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 2941-83. The pressure difference that drops sharply when the filter element is damaged should be greater than the specified value.

    4. Flow fatigue characteristics

    Should be in accordance with ISO3724-90 standard fatigue test. Filter elements must be fatigue tested for 100,000 cycles.

    5. Test for adaptability of hydraulic oil

    The pressure flow withstand test should be carried out according to the ISO2943-83 standard to verify the compatibility of the filter material with the hydraulic oil.

    Filtration ratio b ratio refers to the ratio of the number of particles larger than a given size in the fluid before filtration to the number of particles larger than a given size in the fluid after filtration. Nb=number of particles before filtration Na=number of particles after filtration X=particle size.
