1. TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATIONS
1.1 FILTER HOUSING
Construction
The lters consist of a spin-on can
which screws onto a connection tube
which is tted to the oil tank.
The connection can either be a ange,
weld or threaded version.
1.2 FILTER CARTRIDGES
The lter cartridges comply with all
relevant ISO test criteria.
1.3 SEALS
Cardboard for ange model.
1.4 SPECIAL MODELS AND
ACCESSORIES

1.8 COMPATIBILITY WITH
HYDRAULIC FLUIDS ISO 2943
The tank breather lter/dehumidier
BLT is suitable for use with all
standard mineral and lubrication oils.
1.9 CHANGING INTERVALS
The lter elements or lters must be
replaced as frequently as the uid
lters, but at least every 6 months.

3. FILTER CALCULATION /
SIZING
Differential pressure across breather
lter
The differential pressure in the clean
condition is shown in the graph below.
3.1 SIZING GUIDELINES
The rate at which contamination and
humidity enters a hydraulic system
can be considerably reduced by using
efcient tank breather ltration.
CAUTION:
Incorrectly sized tank breather lters can
place additional strain on the system and
reduce the service life of hydraulic lter
elements.
For optimum sizing the following should
therefore be observed:
Filtration rating of breather lter ≤
ltration rating of hydraulic lter
Only use breather lters with an absolute
retention rate (d100 ≤ x µm;
x = given ltration rating)
Max. permitted initial pressure drop:
0.01 bar (with a clean lter element and
at calculated air ow)
