Overview
Introduction
Contamination and degraded fluid quality cause inefficient operation,
component wear, and eventually failures in all hydraulic and
lubrication systems. The products in this catalog are the tools that are
needed to prevent such occurrences. HYDAC Recommends a three
step approach to controlling contamination in any system:
Assess
Recommend & Implement
Monitor & Maintain
Assess
Start by gathering complete information on the system.
This includes:
• a list of the most critical components
• the mfg’s recommended ISO class for each component
• the type of oil being used
• flow rate & operating pressure
• fluid temperature & ambient temperature
• system’s operational characteristics
• details on all current filters in the system
• solid contamination levels (ISO class)
• water content levels

• details on all current filters in the system
Recommend & Implement
Next, specify your recommendations for upgrading the current
filtration, and adding the appropriate supplementary filtration:
• pressure filters
• return line filters
• manifold cartridge/circuit protector filters
• element micron rating
• reservoir breathers or filler breathers
• strainer baskets
• addition of offline filtration loop
• use of portable filters for filling/temporary offline loops
• sufficient water removal protection

• proper fluid monitoring devices
Monitor & Maintain
Finally, use reliable methods for continuous monitoring of the fluid
conditions including:
• solid contamination
• water content
• additive depletion
• element clogging
• periodic detailed analysis of actual fluid samples
• portable filters for correcting unacceptable levels
