Glossary

Initial differential pressure
Differential pressure at the start of the filtration process
(when the filter element is "clean").
Coalescer element
Filter element with star-pleated coalescer material. The
liquid flows from the inside to the outside. Small water
droplets emulsified in oil "coalesce" to form larger drops.
Dirt particles are absorbed.
Differential pressure (∆ p)
Pressure difference between the dirty side and the clean
side.
Droplet separator
Cylindrical support structure with integrated hydrophobic
cloth. Water drops are retained and are able to sink to the
bottom.
Filtrate
Fluid that is filtered.

4.1

Negative declaration

Our fluid filtration and automatic filter products are
designed for Group 2 fluids (not dangerous) as standard as
defined by the EC Pressure Equipment Directive
2014/68/EU Article 13 and Article 4 (3), in other words a
name-plate without a CE marking is affixed to these
products. No declaration of conformity may be issued for
this reason.
According to the criteria laid down in Article 2 of the
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, our standard hydraulic
filters are outside the scope of this directive. Under legal
provisions, therefore, we are not allowed to affix a CE
marking, nor are we permitted to issue a declaration of
incorporation or conformity.
According to the type approval, these filters may be used in
marine applications for filtering fuels, lubricants and
hydraulic oil.
Acceptance under SOLAS is possible at any time following
the notification of the specific regulation.
