Description: Taisei Kogyo P-UH-12-20U
The Taisei Kogyo P-UH-12-20U is a large-size replacement filter element for the UH, UM, and UL Series hydraulic line filters. Specifically designed for Size 12 housings (typically Rc 1-1/2″ or 40A), this element handles substantial flow rates while providing reliable protection against particulate contamination in industrial fluids.
Key Features
- Filtration Rating: 20 Microns (Nominal).
- Media: Filter Paper (Code U).
- Compatibility: Interchangeable between UH-12 (High Pressure), UM-12 (Medium Pressure), and UL-12 (Low Pressure) housings.
- Fluid Compatibility: Standard Mineral Oil.
- Construction: Pleated paper with reinforced core.
Operational Benefits
The P-UH-12-20U uses a 20-micron cellulose media, which is ideal for general-purpose filtration in return lines or less critical pressure lines where extremely fine filtration is not required. The pleated design maximizes the surface area, ensuring a long service life and high dirt-holding capacity. It is constructed to withstand pressure surges common in hydraulic circuits.
Installation
Ensure the system is depressurized before replacing the element. The P-UH-12-20U fits securely into the housing with O-ring seals to prevent fluid bypass. As a paper element, it is strictly single-use and provides superior fine particle retention compared to wire mesh alternatives.
