The EPF series replacement elements are designed for high-pressure in-line hydraulic oil filtration. They are available in single or double length configurations with filtration fineness down to 2 microns. The elements help protect critical engine components such as valves, bearings, cylinders, and pumps from contaminants that can cause increased wear, shorter maintenance intervals, increased downtime, and higher costs. These elements are suitable for use in extremely demanding environments, including construction, oil and gas, agriculture, and mining.
Patented Eco-Friendly Design
EPF series replacement elements feature a patented eco-friendly design that enables the bypass valve and element core to be integrated as reusable components within the filter housing. This can reduce waste and disposal costs by up to 50%. The EPF series is ideal for integrating filters into distribution systems without the need for additional drilling to install a bypass valve.
Filter Media Options
Various filter media options are available to meet customers’ specific system requirements, including microglass (QI), high-strength microglass (QIH), and reverse-flow microglass (QIR). Several filter housing sizes are also available depending on rated flow and connection type.
Compatibility with Hydraulic Fluids
EPF series filter replacement elements are compatible with a wide range of hydraulic fluids, including:
- Hydraulic mineral oils class H HLPD (according to DIN 51524)
- Operating fluids (according to DIN ISO 2943)
- Lubricants (according to ISO 6743, APJ, DIN 51517, ACEA, ASTM)
- Vegetable oils
- 60/40 water-glycol mixtures
- Industrial-grade phosphate esters (upon request)
- Non-aggressive synthetic oils
- Non-aggressive biodegradable oils (HETG, HEPG, and HEES according to VDMA 24568)
