Innovative protection for sample analysers
The wide range of Parker Balston branded filters, used to protect analysers, is further strengthened with the latest range of fast loop filter housings.
New metallic core for ProBond filter cartridges
Parker Hannifin ProBond resin bonded filter cartridges are now available with an optional metallic core for paint, ink, resin and adhesives manufacturing applications where high strength is necessary
To overcome this the new 400HH filter unit incorporates a positive temperature co-efficient (PTC) heater in the filter head, which essentially warms the fuel before the filtration stage to protect on-engine filters and ensure that diesel engines run cleaner, smoother and for longer.
In addition, the new 400HH filter incorporates a high performance 10 micron element and will significantly increase final fuel cleanliness at the injector, especially important when used with bio-diesel fuels, which typically suffer from higher levels of contamination from dirt, debris and suspended solids.
The PTC heater unit self-regulates the power it draws, depending on temperature and flow, and automatically powers down when the fuel flow stops.
In addition, the 400HH filter is easy both to install and service, as the heater unit remains connected when changing filter elements.
This eliminates the potential for damage that can be experienced when using competing heated bowl filters.
The new 400HH filter is designed to be both lightweight and tough, with an aluminium head with integral primer pump, an industry leading water separating filter can, and a high capacity engineered polymer water collection bowl.
Three sizes are available, each using a standard M16 1.5 head port size and a semi synthetic, water separating Aquabloc 10 micron element that is waterproof, rustproof and has a high retention capacity.
Finally, the system can be used in both 12v and 24v applications, giving flexibility and inventory cost-saving in stockholding, as one product will suffice for both voltages. Request a free brochure from Parker Hannifin - Filtration Division ...
