The SAF-10/13 Spin-On Filter Heads are designed for in-line installation in hydraulic circuits and are suitable for both return-line and suction-line applications. Manufactured entirely from aluminum, they ensure a maximum operating pressure of 14 bar (200 PSI). These filter heads offer NPT or SAE O-ring connections and are compatible with mineral oils across a temperature range from -30 °C to +100 °C. Optional integration of bypass valves and clogging indicators is supported.
The SAF-10/13 series consists of in-line Spin-On filter heads manufactured from aluminum. The compact design is intended to accommodate SF-65 series filter elements (not included in the standard supply), featuring a 1-12 UNF threaded connection for the filter element. The design includes 1/4-20 UNC mounting holes, facilitating integration into existing hydraulic systems.
The SAF-10/13 Spin-On filter heads are sized to handle specific flow rates depending on the application:
The maximum supported operating pressure is 14 bar (200 PSI). For applications without a bypass valve, the maximum allowable differential pressure is 5.5 bar (80 PSI).
The component is designed to operate over a wide temperature range, from -30 °C to +100 °C (-22 °F to +212 °F). Fluid compatibility includes standard mineral oils, with the option to use other fluids upon specific request.
The system offers flexibility through multiple connection and control options:
The filter heads are available with two types of threaded main port connections:
The filter head can be configured with an integrated bypass valve. Available settings include:
The filter heads include 1/8 NPT ports for clogging indicators. Drilling configurations vary according to application:
