Overview
The Hy-Pro HP20L8-6MV filter element (Part #214651) is a 6µm absolute pleated cartridge designed for hydraulic and lubrication filtration systems. This element is designed for use in hydraulic and lubrication filtration systems, removing particulate contamination from hydraulic fluid, lube oil, and related petroleum-based or synthetic fluids to protect system components and maintain fluid cleanliness. The element suits proportional valve protection and general hydraulic applications where medium-grade filtration is required.
