Original MANN-FILTER Oilfilter H 85 – Hydraulic filter – For passenger cars

MANN‑FILTER H 85 Hydraulic Filter

The MANN‑FILTER H 85 is a premium hydraulic filter designed specifically for the steering systems of passenger cars. It delivers reliable protection against contaminants, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the vehicle’s hydraulic steering components.

Key Features

• High‑Quality Filtration: The H 85 employs a multi‑layer filtration system that captures particles as small as 5 µm, preventing wear on pumps, valves, and actuators.
• Robust Construction: Made from durable materials, the filter housing resists corrosion and withstands high pressure environments typical of steering systems.
• Easy Installation: The design allows for quick replacement without special tools. Its standard dimensions fit a wide range of passenger car models.
• Long Service Life: Engineered to maintain performance over extended periods, reducing maintenance frequency and extending component life.

Compatibility

The H 85 is engineered for use in the steering systems of many passenger cars. It matches the specifications required by manufacturers such as Mercedes‑Benz, Puch, and other European automotive brands. The filter’s size and pressure rating are suitable for both older models (e.g., 190 C, E‑Class, G‑Series) and newer vehicles that employ hydraulic steering assistance.

Performance Benefits

• Improved Steering Response: By removing contaminants, the filter ensures smooth operation of the hydraulic pump and actuator, leading to precise steering feel.
• Reduced Wear and Tear: Contaminants can cause abrasive damage; the H 85’s filtration prevents this, preserving internal components.
• Enhanced Fuel Efficiency: A clean hydraulic system operates more efficiently, indirectly contributing to better overall vehicle performance.

Installation Guidelines

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
2. Locate the steering hydraulic filter housing; it is typically positioned near the steering rack or pump.
3. Disconnect the fluid lines carefully, allowing any excess fluid to drain into an appropriate container.
4. Remove the old filter by unscrewing the housing cap and sliding out the cartridge.
5. Insert the new H 85 filter, ensuring it is seated correctly and that all seals are intact.
6. Reconnect the fluid lines, refill the system with fresh hydraulic fluid if necessary, and purge air from the circuit.
7. Check for leaks and verify proper operation of the steering system before driving.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter regularly during routine maintenance checks.
• Replace the filter at recommended intervals or sooner if fluid contamination is detected.
• Use only manufacturer‑approved hydraulic fluid to maintain compatibility and performance.
