The FPE UFI delivery air filter is an in-line spin-on filter designed for medium-pressure hydraulic circuits. Featuring an aluminum alloy head and a steel cartridge, it supports a maximum operating pressure of 1.2 MPa (12 bar). It provides flow rates up to 300 l/min and is equipped with a bypass valve set at 1.7 bar. Compatible with ISO 6743/4 fluids, it operates in a temperature range from -25°C to +110°C, ensuring system reliability and protection.
The FPE series by UFI Filters offers an efficient solution for delivery filtration (“Inline spin-on filter”) in hydraulic systems operating at medium pressures. These filters combine the practicality of a screw-on cartridge with robust materials, making them ideal for protecting system components from solid contamination.
The structure of FPE filters is designed to ensure strength and light weight:
The series uses filter elements from the ESE family, available with different media technologies to meet specific cleanliness requirements:
The FPE UFI delivery air filter covers a wide range of applications:
The range offers installation flexibility with BSP threaded connections (from 3/4″ to 1″1/2) or SAE 3000 psi flanged connections. Filters can be equipped with clogging indicators (pressure gauges or pressure switches) for continuous monitoring.
