• Precision Filtration: Equipped with a multi‑stage filtration system that captures particles as small as 0.5 µm, preventing wear on pumps, valves, and other critical hydraulic parts.
• Robust Construction: The filter housing is made from high‑strength alloy steel, providing excellent resistance to pressure fluctuations and mechanical shock.
• Wide Compatibility: Suitable for a broad range of automatic transmissions and hydraulic systems used in commercial trucks, construction equipment, and agricultural machinery.
• Easy Installation: Features a quick‑connect fitting that allows for rapid replacement without the need for specialized tools.
• Long Service Life: Designed to maintain filtration efficiency over extended periods, reducing maintenance frequency and downtime.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Ensure the vehicle’s hydraulic system is depressurized and cooled to a safe temperature before beginning work.
2. Remove Old Filter: Disconnect the filter housing from the transmission or hydraulic line using the appropriate wrench. Drain any residual fluid into a suitable container.
3. Inspect Housing: Check for cracks, corrosion, or damage. Replace if necessary.
4. Install New Filter: Align the quick‑connect fitting with the housing and secure it by tightening the clamp until snug but not over‑tightened to avoid damaging seals.
5. Re‑fill System: Reintroduce hydraulic fluid to the required level, ensuring no air pockets remain.
6. Test Run: Start the vehicle and monitor for leaks or abnormal noises. Verify that pressure readings are within normal operating ranges.

Maintenance Tips

• Replace the filter at regular intervals as specified by the vehicle manufacturer, typically every 10,000–15,000 km (6,200–9,300 mi) or after significant exposure to dusty environments.
• Inspect the filter housing for signs of wear before each replacement. A damaged housing can compromise filtration performance.
• Use only high‑quality hydraulic fluid that meets the specifications required by your vehicle’s manufacturer.
• Keep a clean work area to prevent recontamination during installation.
