Overview
The Taisei Kogyo STN-10-150K is a suction strainer designed for mounting at the suction inlet of hydraulic pump systems within the reservoir tank. Taisei Kogyo manufactures various filters including suction strainers for hydraulic system protection. This model features a 150 mesh rating and is constructed with stainless steel wire gauze media, making it suitable for mineral oil-based hydraulic systems. Over 70% of all hydraulic system failures are caused by contaminants in fluid, making effective suction filtration critical for system reliability and component longevity.
Key Features
- Stainless Steel Wire Gauze Construction: Durable notch-wire element resists corrosion and maintains structural integrity under operating conditions.
- 150 Mesh Filtration Rating: Removes particles while maintaining adequate flow to prevent pump starvation.
- Reusable Element Design: Non-woven, single-layer construction allows for field cleaning and element reuse, reducing operational costs.
- Stable Filtration Accuracy: Delivers stable filtration accuracy with very small possibility of gaps.
- Proven Industrial Application: Widely used in various industries including construction, industrial machinery, and agriculture, providing reliable filtration for hydraulic systems.
Technical Specifications
The STN-10-150K is part of Taisei Kogyo’s standard suction strainer line. Multiple types of filter elements are available utilizing various filtration ratings and materials. This unit is engineered for mounting directly in hydraulic reservoir tanks where suction lines draw fluid toward the main pump.
Typical Applications
- Hydraulic pump inlet protection in industrial machinery
- Mobile hydraulic systems (construction equipment, agricultural machinery)
- Central hydraulic power units and test stands
- OEM equipment requiring reservoir-mounted suction filtration
- Mineral oil hydraulic fluid systems
Compatibility & Replacements
Compatible With
- Mineral oil-based hydraulic fluids ISO VG 22–68
- Standard hydraulic pump systems operating at suction inlet pressures
