6.3 Dimensions
Make sure that there is sufficient space (min. 1050 mm) above the filter
housing as this is needed for removing the filter elements.
6.4
Hydraulic Connection
Connection to the hydraulic system is to be done using flexible tubing or piping. Make sure
that no vibrations or stress/loading from other machinery and equipment are carried over to
the filter housing. If necessary, use expansion joints.

Notes on Piping / Hosing
In order to keep the pressure differential as low as possible, use as few threaded
connections as possible.
The pressure differential in a hydraulic line is dependent on the following factors:
•
flow rate
•
kinematic viscosity
•
pipe dimensions
•
density of fluid
The pressure differential can be estimated for hydraulic oils as follows:
