OVERVIEW
Air Separation Technology
Through innovative filtration and tank performance expert analysis
Industry trends emphasizing cost and space reduction have driven compromises in machine and tank design, which negatively impacts
performance and reliability. At the forefront is an increase in air in hydraulic oil, primarily due to inadequate tank designs or improper tank sizing.
In addition, seal leakage, cavitation, machine movement in operation, and inadequate filter-tank configurations contribute to air in hydraulic
systems. It is of vital importance that the tank and filter be configured to deter aeration during operation and to provide a means for de-aeration.
The cost of air in oil:
• Noise
• Damage to components (cavitation)
• Accelerated oil ageing
• Increased Temperature
• Change in viscosity
• Oil leakage, foaming in the tank
• Decrease in filter performance

Results in: Losses in Efficiency, Controllability, Performance and Safety

extend the life of system components.
Filtration = System Protection / Management

How a System Gets Contaminated

Contaminants come from two basic sources: they either enter the
system from outside (ingression) or are generated from within.
New systems often have contaminants left behind from
manufacturing and assembly operations. Unless they are filtered as
they enter the circuit, both the original fluid and make-up fluid are
likely to contain more contaminants than the system can tolerate.
Most systems ingest contaminants through such components as
inefficient air breathers and worn cylinder rod seals during normal
operation. Airborne contaminants are likely to gain admittance during
routine servicing or maintenance. Also, friction and heat can produce
internally generated contamination.

calibration procedures (ACFTD to ISO MTD)
ISO 4572 ISO 16889 Multi-pass test reports

The change in calibration procedures (ISO 4402 to ISO 11171)

occurred for two reasons. First, the industry developed a new
standard test dust for calibration fluid. This new ISO Medium Test
Dust (ISO MTD) replaced the previously used AC Fine Test Dust
(ACFTD), which is no longer available. Secondly, there has been
a change in how particle sizes are measured. By way of newer
technologies, particles are now measured in two dimensions,
whereas in the past they had been measured using the largest
dimension (chord). Older technology was not as precise as it is today,
and particle sizes reported were less accurate. Table 2 shows that
what used to be classified as a 2 µ particle is now classified as a 4.6
µ(c) particle. The (c) denotes that particle size measurements are
certified using an Automatic Particle Counter (APC) which has been
calibrated in accordance with ISO 11171.
ISO 11171 calls for the use of ISO MTD dust and changes the way
we report the number of particles based on the new distribution of
particles in the new standard reference material (SRM2806). Today,
the ISO Medium Test Dust and the new calibration standard (11171)
are used to synchronize all APC’s. This change was made in an
effort to reduce variability in tests conducted in different laboratories
around the world.

OVERVIEW
ISO 4406 Code
Cleanliness levels are defined by three numbers divided by slashes (/.)
These numbers correspond to 4, 6, and 14 micron, in that order. Each
number refers to an ISO Range Code, which is determined by the
number of particles for that size (4,6, & 14µm) and larger present in 1
ml of fluid. Each range is double the range below. Refer to the chart
below to see the actual ranges.

Achieving the appropriate

cleanliness level in a system
The only way to achieve and maintain the appropriate
cleanliness level in a hydraulic or lubrication system, 14/12/9
is to implement a comprehensive filtration program.
HYDAC offers all of the products that are needed
to monitor and control component and system cleanliness—

Filter Beta Rating

ISO 16889 replaces ISO 4572 as the International Standard for
Multi-pass Testing. It provides a common testing format for filter
manufacturers to rate filter element performance. For convenience,
Betas are shown in this catalog for both old and new Multi-pass
standards (ISO 4572 and 16889, respectively.)
According to ISO 16889, each filter manufacturer can test a given
filter element at a variety of flow rates and terminal pressure drop
ratings that fit the application, system configuration and filter element
size. Results may vary depending on the configuration of the filter
element tested and the test conditions.
Currently, there is no accepted ISO, ANSI, or NFPA standard
regarding “absolute” ratings. Filter manufacturers have generally
adopted an industry standard using ßx(c) ≥ 75 (98.7% efficiency)
as a minimum efficiency to rate an element as a high efficiency
depth filter media. Filter manufacturers generally rate their high
efficiency elements as ßx(c) ≥ 100 (99.0% efficiency), ßx(c) ≥ 200 (99.5%
efficiency), or ßx(c) ≥ 1000 (99.9% efficiency). Performance of HYDAC
elements is typically a minimum rating of ßx(c) ≥ 1000, with high dirt
holding capacities and lower pressure drops in optimum balance to
meet the dynamics and stresses of all applications.

Dirt Holding Capacity

Dirt holding capacity (DHC) is the amount of contaminant (expressed
in grams) the element will retain before it goes into alarm (terminal
pressure). All other factors being equal, an element’s DHC can
provide indication of how long the element will last until full. This
characteristic, taken into context with a structural and pleat support
evaluation will provide good indication of what element should last
longer in system operation.
Dirt holding capacity, sometimes called “apparent capacity,” is a
very important and often overlooked factor in selecting the right
element for the appli­cation. The dirt holding capacity of an element
is measured in grams of ISO medium test dust contaminant as
determined from the multi-pass test (ISO 16889), and measured at the
terminal ∆P (alarm point). When selecting filter elements, it is beneficial
to compare the dirt holding capacities of elements with similar
particle removal efficiencies and good structural and pleat support
characteristics.

OVERVIEW
Seven Steps to Selecting a Filter
It is important to keep in mind that all system components have some tolerance for contamination. The key to cost effective contamination
control is to maintain the system’s cleanliness level at the tolerance level of the most sensitive component. Once the desired cleanliness level
(ISO code) is determined, designing and selecting a cost effective filtration system can be readily accomplished.

1. Determining desired cleanliness level Step 1. Determine the most sensitive component in the system. Then, determine the desired
cleanliness level (ISO code) by using Tables 4 and 5 (in this Overview), review of component manuals or
by contacting the component manufacturer directly.
Operating pressure levels and system environmental conditions also have a bearing on cleanliness
requirements.
2. Selecting correct medium Step 2. Using Table 9 (in this Overview, respectively), identify the proper HYDAC filter media rating to
employ.
3. Where to filter Step 3. Determine where to locate the filters, using the information on “Filter Location” (Section 3, in
this Overview).
4. Selecting filter housing Step 4. Refer to Filter Products in the Table of Contents or the Quick Reference Guide and the
individual filter catalog pages to select the specific filter housing that will meet the requirements set
forth in Steps 2 and 3 above, as well as the pressure and flow parameters where the particular filter
will be located.
Consideration should also be given to installation convenience for your particular application. Use
the filter selection charts shown on the catalog pages to determine the specific filter model number
for the desired media rating at the required flow rate.
5. Selecting filter breather Step 5. For nonpressurized reservoirs, refer to the HYDAC Accessories Catalog to select the
appropriate filter breather.
6. Contamination control practices Step 6. Implement the appropriate manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance contamination
control procedures. Effective contamination control is achieved through the conscientious use
of sound manufacturing and maintenance practices. Some examples are: filtering make-up oil;
controlling contamination ingestion during manufacturing, assembly, maintenance, and repair
processes; and properly maintaining cylinder wiper seals.
7. Verifying results Step 7. Check all filtration systems to determine if the results expected are obtained and maintained
during system operation, as operating conditions and maintenance practices may not remain
constant. Take periodic fluid samples on a regular basis to monitor cleanliness, water content and
variations on amounts of wear metals. HYDAC distributors and field representatives have access
to contamination monitoring equipment that can determine the exact cleanliness level (ISO code) of
your system on the spot. Contact your HYDAC distributor or phone us for complete details.

Rated Fatigue Pressure

The application of individual filters should take fatigue ratings into consideration when there are flow or pressure variations creating pressure
peaks and shock loads.
Typical hydraulic systems that use highly repetitive operations include plastic injection molding machines, die-cast machines, and forging and
stamping press systems. In these and other similar applications, rated fatigue pressure should be considered when selecting a filter.
The National Fluid Power Association has introduced a method (NFPA T2.6.1) for verifying the fatigue pressure rating of the pressure-containing
envelope of a metal fluid power component. In this method, components are cycled from 0 to test pressure for 1 million cycles (10 million cycles
is optional). The rated fatigue pressure (RFP) is verified by testing. We establish the desired RFP from design, then we calculate the cycle testing
pressure (CTP), and then conduct tests at CTP per 1,000,000 cycles.
The T2.6.1 Pressure Rating document is available from the National Fluid Power Association, 3333 N. Mayfair Road, Milwaukee, WI 53222-3219.
The NFPA has established that the maximum allowable Work Pressure is equal to the Rated Fatigue Pressure (RFP).

OVERVIEW
Sizing HYDAC Filter Assemblies
To properly size and calculate the pressure drop across a filter for a particular application the following procedures should be strictly followed:
Assembly pressure drop (∆P) is the sum of the ∆P across the filter housing plus the ∆P across the filter element.
This simple formula is shown below:

∆P Filter Assembly = ∆P Housing + ∆P Clean Element

To calculate a filter assembly ∆P we must first know the specifics of the application.
To calculate the ∆P across the housing we must know the flow rate and specific gravity of the fluid we wish to filter. A chart is provided in each of
the product pages that provides a curve outlining the pressure drop across the housing based upon the flow in GPM (gallons per minute). This data
must then be adjusted if the specific gravity is at a lower or higher point than the test Hydraulic Fluid (0.86). The formula for calculation of the
housing ∆P is shown as follows:

∆P Housing = ∆P (From Curve in catalog) x Actual Specific Gravity

0.86

To calculate the ∆P across the element additional information is required. This will include the viscosity of the fluid (at operating temperature),
required filtration rating in µm (microns), type of element (High collapse -BH or Low collapse -BN), and K (coefficient) factor from the attached
conversion tables. With this information the following formula is used to calculate ∆P across the element. Again the specific gravity and
viscosity (standard hydraulic fluid figured at a viscosity of 141 SSU - Saybolt Universal Seconds - 30 centistrokes) will change the ∆P.

∆P Clean Element = Flow Rate GPM X Element K factor x Actual Specific Gravity x Actual Viscosity in SSU
or (∆P from element curve) 0.86 141

EXAMPLE - an application with the following criteria would be sized as shown.

Conditions: Fluid – Hydraulic Oil (ISO-32) Flow Rate – 30 GPM
Specific Gravity – 0.86 Max. Operating Pressure – 4,500 psi

∆P Clean Element = 30 GPM x 0.175 x 0.86 x 141 SSU

0.86 141 SSU
∆P Clean Element = 5.25 x 1 x 1 = 5.25 psid

FILTER ASSEMBLY
∆P Filter Assembly = ∆P Housing + ∆P Clean Element Clean assembly ∆P is less than 10 – 15 psid per “Typical Targets”
P Filter Assembly = 1.5 psid + 5.25 psid = 6.75 psid on Table 9 (in this Overview)

NOTE:
A change in the fluid can make a significant difference in the pressure drop across a filter assembly. A second calculation for the
element (∆P) should be done at the lowest temperature condition (cold start) to determine how the filter will operate under these
severe conditions with significantly higher viscosity.
See the next page for Cold Start Calculation.

NOTE:
When the element is partially loaded with some contamination and the system is cold started, the indicator may trip or possibly go
into bypass, until the fluids in the system warm up. This information is relative and important for our customers to understand as
they operate their systems under diverse conditions. This additional performance data helps our customers to define their system
operating procedures, assist in component selection and finalize design.

LOW PRESSURE FILTERS

Clogging Indicators
Early warning pressure devices protect the hydraulic circuit from
contamination, alerting the operator that the filter element is near capacity
and must be changed. The clogging indicator is typically set to trip at 1-bar
(14 psid) below the filter bypass setting, to allow the operator sufficient time
for element change-out. Available in visual, combo electrical/visual, as well
as an extensive list of other options and certifications. A comprehensive
offering of clogging indicators ensures that any application can be
accommodated.

schedule for installing new elements because the rate of dirt
ingression is not known, and, in fact, may vary from time-to-time and
from machine-to-machine. Use of a clogging indicator has two main
benefits: first, it eliminates the need to guess when the element will
clog; second, it avoids the unnecessary cost of replacing elements
too soon.
UL and CSA indicators

pressure. Typically, a HYDAC pressure filter bypass valve begins
to crack at 87 psid (6 bar), so the indicator is set to trip at 72 psid
(5 bar). A HYDAC return filter ordinarily begins to bypass at 43 psid (3
bar), so the indicator is set to trip at 29 psid (2 bar). Consequently, the
operator has a period of time in which to change or clean the element
before the bypass valve opens and passes contaminated fluid to
sensitive components downstream of the filter.
Typically, the time from indication to bypass is 5-15% of the life of
the element. For instance, if the normal service life of the element is
100 days, there is a grace period of 5-15 days before the filter begins
bypassing. Nevertheless, it is advisable to change the element as
soon as the indicator trips.
Non-standard indicator settings are often employed for various
reasons. For instance, in lubrication systems, filters may not be
allowed to have a high pressure drop, therefore, the indicator may
be set to trip at less than 15 psid. When the filter is installed on the
suction side of a pump, it is a common practice to limit the ∆P across
the filter to 3 psid, and to set the indicator at a correspondingly
low amount.
Certain HYDAC non-bypass filters, such as the DFDK duplex series
and DFZ series of sandwich filters, utilize indicators that are set at 116
psid (8 bar) in order to maximize the dirt retention and service life of
the elements.
In most cases, HYDAC pressure and return line filters bypass at
higher pressures than other commonly used filters, meaning that
indicator settings also are higher than usual. This has the advantage
of extending element service life.

Can You Spot The
Difference?
The frame of the “4” in
the replica element is
rectangular, whereas in the
wrap which is used
by HYDAC,
the frame of the “4”
is designed in the form
of a filter element.

How to Spot the Difference ultrasonic
welded seam.
Here, notice the difference in the outer wrap: the perforation pattern and the red
border around the “4”. Not visible, the pirated element had less filtration layers of lower
quality and a glued seam (a HYDAC seam is typically welded). In addition, the end cap
identification was inkjet printed (a genuine HYDAC element is laser etched) and the
dates on the end cap and its packaging did not match. Last, subtle misspellings were
noticed (Betarnicron instead of Betamicron and deslgned instead of designed).

It seems that everyone is in the replacement element business, but “Buyer Beware!”. There are suppliers—pirates—
who have no concern for quality. Their mission is simply to capitalize on a brand’s reputation for quality engineering.
Pirates will offer rock bottom prices, but remember: design differences result in performance differences. Keep in
mind that “you get what you pay for”. Don’t end up paying the ultimate price – component failure, production down
time and costly repair - by using a cheap, imitation, low-performing element.
The housing pictured right shows evidence of competitor element failure—
bypass springs and pieces of the end cap in the outlet side. Application—
gearbox. Using Genuine HYDAC products is imperative for optimal
performance.

Winning the War

HYDAC has introduced a new outer wrap design to further differentiate
our elements. This exclusive outer wrap both improves performance
and provides you quality protection. It features a unique oval-shaped
perforation that improves diffusion flow. This is a one-of-a-kind design, so
if your element includes this feature, you are assured it is a HYDAC quality
original and not an imitation. It is standard on all HYDAC elements.
