Overview
The Becker 162K777H01 KVT 3.60 intake filter is a critical component in maintaining the performance and longevity of Becker KVT 3.60 series oil-free rotary vane vacuum pumps. This 5µ filtration element protects the pump’s internal components by removing dust, debris, and other solid particles from incoming air. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the KVT 3.60 system, this filter is essential for continuous, reliable vacuum pump operation in industrial applications.
Key Features
- 5µ filtration rating protects pump internals from contaminants
- Direct replacement for Becker KVT 3.60 vacuum pump systems
- Easy maintenance and replacement following Becker service intervals
- Standard equipment on all KVT 3.60 series pumps
Technical Specifications
The 162K777H01 filter meets Becker’s exacting standards for vacuum pump inlet filtration. Routine maintenance includes checking and cleaning the filter every 40 to 200 operating hours. A new filter element should be installed after four compressed-air cleanings or annually, whichever comes first. The filter housing accommodates the paper element design and includes a rubber gasket; proper gasket orientation during reinstallation is critical to avoid vacuum loss.
