HENGST PRODUCT PORTFOLIO

HENGST INLINE FILTERS
Inline filters are used in hydraulic systems for separating solid materials from the hydraulic fluids and lubricating oils. They are intended for attachment in pipelines.

 

HENGST BREATHING FILTERS

The breathing filters are designed as demountable filter housing for breathing and bleeding with internal exchangeable filter element. They filter the suction air of industrial systems and thus prevent damage at the components.

HENGST TANK MOUNTED FILTERS

The tank mounted return flow filters are designed for installation on fluid tanks of hydraulic or lubrication systems. Their function is to separate solid materials from fluids and they are also used as filling or bypass filters.

HENGST DUPLEX FILTERS / INLINE FILTERS SWITCHABLE

Duplex filters are used in hydraulic systems for separating solid materials from the hydraulic fluids and lubricating oils. They are intended for installation into piping. The filter element can be changed without any operational interruption.

HENGST Duplex Filters / Inline Filters Switchable

HENGST SUCTION & SPIN-ON FILTERS

Suction filters are protective filters in the suction line. They are intended for installation to protect pumps directly against wear and lateral tank mounting below the oil level. 

 

HENGST FILTER ELEMENTS
The filter element is the central component of industrial filters. The actual filtration process takes part in the filter element. The main filter variables, such as retention capacity, dirt holding capacity and pressure loss are determined by the filter elements and the filter media used in them.
