6.2 MAINTENANCE, GENERAL
This section describes maintenance
work which must be carried out
periodically. The operational safety
and life expectancy of the lter, and
whether it is ready for use, depend to
a large extent on regular and careful
maintenance.
6.3 MAINTENANCE MEASURES
zSpare parts must full the technical
requirements specied by the
manufacturer.
This is always ensured when using
original HYDAC spare parts.
zKeep tools, working area and
equipment clean.
zAfter disassembling the lter, clean all
parts, check for damage or wear and
replace parts if necessary.
zWhen changing a lter element, a high
level of cleanliness must be observed!
6.4 Cartridge change interval
We recommend installing the lter with
a clogging indicator (pressure gauge
or pressure switch/vacuum gauge or
vacuum switch) to monitor the lter
element.
When the clogging indicator is triggered
this shows that the lter cartridge has to
be replaced.
If the pressure gauge displays 1.5 bar
(or the vacuum switch displays 0.2 bar)
,
it is also necessary to replace the lter
cartridge.
NOTE
The information in this brochure
relates to the operating conditions and
applications described.
For applications and operating
conditions not described, please contact
the relevant technical department.
Subject to technical modications.
