What is a return line filter and for which hydraulic applications do you need it?

Almost every hydraulic system uses a return line filter. It's designed to mount directly onto the tank cover. Therefore, you can easily replace filter element(s) when needed; it's perfect for easy maintenance. Select your return line filter based on the maximum flow of the hydraulic system.

Note: To prevent the hydraulic oil from foaming in the tank - in all operating conditions - the return flow must come from below the fluid level in the tank. As a general rule, the distance between the bottom of the tank and the end of the pipeline should be more than 2 to 3 times the pipe diameter.
