Komatsu WA600-8 Filter 426-60-65230

 

 

 

 

Safe bypass protection: Combining the universal design characteristics of Komatsu hydraulic filter element, the 426-60-65230 filter element is most likely equipped with a bypass valve as a safety structure. When the filter element is used for a long time and too many impurities are intercepted, causing blockage, a large pressure difference will be formed before and after it. When the pressure difference reaches the set threshold, the bypass valve will automatically open, allowing hydraulic oil to flow directly back to the tank without passing through the filter element. This design can avoid blockage causing excessive oil pressure in the oil circuit, prevent the filter element from being damaged by high-pressure oil, and also ensure basic oil supply to the hydraulic system, avoiding sudden shutdown of the loader due to oil circuit interruption. However, at this time, the hydraulic oil has not been filtered and the filter element needs to be replaced as soon as possible.
Assist in maintaining oil quality: In addition to intercepting solid impurities, the material and structure of this filter element can also assist in adsorbing small amounts of water in hydraulic oil. Moisture is an important cause of hydraulic oil deterioration. Filter elements can reduce the impact of moisture on hydraulic oil, delay the deterioration rate of hydraulic oil, maintain key properties such as viscosity and lubricity of hydraulic oil, and ensure that the transmission efficiency of hydraulic systems is not affected by the deterioration of oil quality.
