OLF Series

Features and Benefits

The OLF series of filters is designed to efficiently and cost effectively filter hydraulic oils, lubricating oils, cleaning fluids and coolants which are highly contaminated. The filters can be supplied either as individual filters or as ready-to-install offline units complete with optional motor and pump units.

  • Lower Operating Costs
  • Extended Element Service Life
  • Cleaner, more efficient systems

Dimicron® Technology

Dimicron® technology, which incorporates membrane filtration and multi-disc construction, sets the OLF apart from conventional filters by providing it with exceptional dirt holding capacity and separation efficiency. Each filter element is able to capture and hold more than 1 pound of dirt, meaning that the OLF60, which uses four elements, will hold nearly 5 pounds of dirt. Membrane filtration provides the OLF with a separation efficiency over 99.9% for particles 2 micron and larger (ß2 > 1000) even in a single pass.

Applications

Typical applications include:

  • Filling and flushing hydraulic units
  • Filtration of fluids for hydraulic systems and test stands
  • Filtration of cleaning fluids for parts washing machines
  • Filtration of coolants

Dimicron® Element

The synthetic membrane (2μm absolute) provides a high filtration rating while the cellulose filter layer collects and holds the bulk of the dirt load. This combination results in excellent removal efficiency, even in a single pass, and extremely high dirt holding capacity.
