Additional Information

Additional Information

 N/A The filter can be supplied with either a five (5) micron element or a one (1) micron element, currently from Hydac Canada stock.

If interested in renting this filter, please consult with Hydac Canada product support with operational parameters of the filter to ensure that the rental will be suitable for the application as well as to confirm the micron rating requirement.

Additional replacement filter elements will need to be purchased as necessary by the customer.
  • Continuous separation of solid particles from low viscosity fluids such as:
    • Water
