5.6 Connecting the suction/pressure port
Install the filter unit securely in a system/an assembly, take the
pressure loss into account with the piping or hose system. You
will find the respective formula to calculate the pressure loss.
The pressure loss in a hydraulic line depends upon:
– Flow
– Kinematic viscosity
– Pipe dimensions
– Fluid density
The pressure loss can be estimated as follows for mineral oil-
based hydraulic oils:

Q Flow

ν Kinematic viscosity

D Density
[kg/dm³]
The mineral oil-based hydraulic oil has a density of ≈ 0.9 kg/
dm³.
This formula applies to straight pipe runs. Particularly with re-
gard to the suction side connection, note that additional con-
nectors and pipe bends increase the pressure differential.
Observe the following points for hydraulic connection:
– Keep the height difference between the pump and the oil
level in the reservoir as small as possible.
– Use a suction hose that is suitable for a vacuum of ≥
-0.5 bar (e.g. -1 bar).
– Avoid constrictions in the connected hoses. This reduces
the power and increases the risk of cavitation.
