Description

UFI CBB Filters: Threaded Air Breathers for Hydraulic System Protection

The CBB series by UFI Filters represents a robust and efficient solution for filtering incoming air in hydraulic tanks. These devices are essential for compensating fluid level variations inside the tank, preventing the ingress of solid particles that could compromise sensitive system components.

Construction Features and Materials

CBB filters stand out for their solid construction, designed for applications requiring durability.

  • Structure: The housing and threaded connection are made of galvanized steel. This material ensures excellent resistance to corrosion and impacts, making the filter suitable even for harsh industrial environments or mobile applications (agricultural and earth-moving machinery).
  • Filter Element: The core of the filter consists of an impregnated cellulose cartridge, optimized to retain atmospheric impurities.

Filtration Specifications and Performance

System efficiency is ensured by precise technical specifications:

  • Filtration Rating: The filter element provides nominal air filtration of 10 µm, protecting the hydraulic fluid from dust and contaminants.
  • Flow Rate: The series is designed to handle different air flow requirements. CBB11 models handle 200 l/min, CBB21 reach 500 l/min, while the larger CBB31 models achieve a maximum flow rate of 850 l/min.
  • Operating Conditions: The filters operate reliably over a wide temperature range, from -25°C to +110°C.

Fluid Compatibility

The UFI CBB Filters are fully compatible with the main types of hydraulic fluids, ensuring versatility of use. They are suitable for use with fluids classified as HH, HL, HM, HV, and HTG according to ISO 6743/4.

Configurations and Connections

The range offers installation flexibility thanks to various threaded connection options:

  • BSP Threads: Available in sizes 1/4″, 3/8″ (Series 11), 1/2″, 3/4″ (Series 21), and 1″ (Series 31).
  • Metric Threads: Available in sizes M12x1.5 (Series 11) and M16x1.5 (Series 21).

This variety allows direct installation on tanks of different sizes without the need for complex adapters.
