Material Handling

Keeping contaminants out of hydraulic and lubrication oils is vital to the primary metals industry. Servo-Hydraulic systems such as roll positioning, continuous caster, and automatic gauge controls, and lubrication systems such as rod mills, rolling mills, foil mills, extrusion operations, and forging operations all require high quality filers and filer elements if production is to be maximized and deadlines are to be kept in order to remain competitive. 

Minimizing static charge generation and preventing damage 

Our filtration and purification products reliably and economically reduce the level of particulate and water contaminants in hydraulic or lube systems. Our filter elements ensure optimum fluid cleanliness levels, consistent performance and long service life for the lowest cost of operation.

Pall Athalon™ hydraulic and lube oil filters combine Beta_x(c)≥2000 rated, stress-resistant filter technology and a full range of housings to provide the greatest overall filter performance and value available in the primary metals industry today. The Laid Over Pleat (LOP) Filter Media Geometry maximizes filtration area, increases flow handling capability, and reduces filter element size, while the Stress-Resistant Filter Medium improves fluid cleanliness consistency to improve performance.

The Anti-Static Construction minimizes static charge generation and prevents damage to filter element, housing, or fluid due to static discharge, and the Coreless/Cageless Construction results in a filter that is 60% lighter than comparable filter elements with cores and, because filter elements are incinerable, shreddable or crushable, they help reduce disposal costs. Their common port and mounting interfaces and cover servicing makes them simple to install and inexpensive to maintain.

Pall Coralon™ Filter Elements provide the primary metals industry with premium SRT (Stress Resistant Technology) filter media for up to 15x cleaner fluids and 16x more consistent performance throughout the filter’s service life. This saves both time and money and helps to keep the primary metals industry rolling. 

Pall Red₁₀₀₀ Filter Elements fit directly into Hydac filter housings without the need for adaptors. Red₁₀₀₀ Filters feature Coralon™ Stress Resistant Technology (SRT) media for advanced protection of critical system components, consistently clean fluid throughout filter service life, and lower comparative differential pressure for reduced energy consumption, resulting in lower overall costs of production.

Pall Athalon™ Filters, Coralon™ Filter Elements, and Red₁₀₀₀ Filter Elements maintain high quality at high capacity for a longer service life for primary metals industry equipment.
