Single pass filter kit shows lower pressure drops

A single pass filter kit shows lower pressure drops and higher efficiencies and dirt holding capacities, resulting in cleaner oil, longer element life, and less downtime.

Schroeder Industries, a recognized leader in filtration and fluid conditioning products, announces the addition of the 3K9 single pass filter kit to its offline filtration products line. The 3K9 is composed of three Schroeder K9 filters mounted in series as a single assembly, providing either in-line single pass staged filtration or a combination of particulate and water filtration. Each K9 medium pressure filter is rated at flows of up to 100 gal/min (380 litre/min) and pressures up to 900 lb/in2 (60 bar).

The 3K9 accepts HF4 spec elements, and double and triple stacking of K-size elements can be replaced by single KK and 27K elements.

Testpoints can be supplied in either the cap or block, allowing the user to record pressure readings or take fluid samples.

The 3K9 is furnished with Schroeder Excellement (Z) media, the latest in a long line of premium filter media for the fluid power industry that outlasts, outperforms and excels in every measurable benchmark.

Excellement media show lower pressure drops and higher efficiencies and dirt holding capacities, resulting in cleaner oil, longer element life, and less downtime.
