Pleated Synthetic Filter Cartridge

Product Summary: Today's modern machinery with its tighter clearances, operates at higher fluid pressures and speeds. This in turn places a far greater demand on the fluid cleanliness. Therefore, high efficiency filtration is essential to meet these stringent requirements.

Manufacturer Info: The Hillard Corporation has been a leading innovator in the field of oil purification and contamination control since 1925. Their policy is to combine the highest quality with the most effective contamination control in the design and manufacture of every product.

Product Detail: The Hilco PH series of filter cartridges achieves the demand for higher efficiency without sacrificing dirt capacity and low presure drop by incorporating modern synthetic filter fibers with much smaller diameters than traditional cellulose fibers. Smaller fibers take up less space in the filter matrix, leaving more room for dirt capacity. Smaller fibers also represent less resistance to fluid flow, maintaining lower pressure drops with closer fiber spacing and the resultant smaller pore sizes. Water is a common contaminant in most fuel, lube, and hydraulic systems. Synthetic fibers do not absorb water and swell or soften as cellulose fibers can, making them far more reliable under adverse conditions.
