Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed technical specifications and instructions for the 160-OFM20X series heavy-duty filters, designed for direct installation in pipelines to protect downstream components. These filters are suitable for heavy-duty applications and feature various components and options to ensure optimal performance and maintenance.
Specifications:
  • Type: 160-OFM20X, Simplex Inline
  • Maximum Pressure: 160 bar [2321 psi]
  • Connection: SAE 1-1/2” / G1-1/2”
  • Material: Filter head made of GGG40/GGG50, bowl of carbon steel, seals available in Nitrile, Viton, or EPDM
  • Temperature Range: -20°C to +100°C
  • Flow Capacity: Up to 450 lpm [100 gpm]
Components and Features:
  • Drain Valve: For draining the filter during servicing.
  • Bypass Valve: Protects the filter element during startup and over-pressurization.
  • Maintenance Indicator: Monitors filter element contamination status, available in optical and electrical versions.
  • Vent Valve: Removes air from the filter during startup and ensures safe depressurization.
  • Filter Element: Star-pleated design with various media options including non-woven, aquasorb, SS wire mesh, inorganic glass fiber, and paper.
Installation and Maintenance:
  • Filters should be installed vertically with the bowl at the bottom for proper venting and draining.
  • Ensure the filter is not subjected to abnormal forces and is fastened to avoid vibration transmission.
  • Check for damage before installation and verify the type matches the nameplate.
  • During maintenance, replace or clean the filter element when the indicator shows contamination.
  • Dispose of filter elements and residual fluids according to environmental regulations.
Performance and Safety:
  • Pressure Line Filters are pressure holding equipment according to the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.
  • Recommended initial pressure drop for assembly is 0.8 bar [11.6 psid].
  • Use a suitable safety relief valve to protect against pressure surges.
Ordering and Spare Parts:
  • Detailed ordering codes are provided for filters, filter elements, and seal kits.
  • A spare parts list is included with part numbers and descriptions.

Bowl : Carbon Steel. Seals : Nitrile / Viton / EPDM. Paint : Bowl Externally painted in RAL-5010. Description The 160-OFM20X series Filters are designed exclusively for heavy duty applications and used for direct installation in the pipeline to provide wear protection of downstream components & systems. Simplex in design for inline mounting the filter inlet & outlet are located the opposite sides. The flow path arrow (inlet to outlet) is marked on filter head. The Filter head is provided with an element locating spigot. The Filter bowl - provided with radial sealing to ensure leak-free jointing - is mounted below the filter head and is unscrewed for maintenance. Accessories Maintenance indicator - for monitoring the filter element contamination status. Available in various designs including • Pressure switch - NO, NC and switch-over-. • DP - Optical (pop-up version) with Electrical option. • DP - Optical (dual dial version) with Electrical option. • DP - Optical-Electrical with 2 switching points. • Bypass valve - to protect the filter element during startup and over pressurisation due to clogging. Vent valve - for removing the air from the filter during starting and for safe depressurisation. Drain valve - for draining the filter during servicing. Filter Element The Filter Element is of star-pleated design with optimised pleat density for providing prolonged life. The filter element is of Out-to-In design and the contaminant is retained outside the filter element and collected in the filter bowl. The elements are available in various media options and selected based on the required oil cleanliness, initial pressure drop and dirt holding capabilities. Media options for the filter element include SS Wire Mesh - Cleanable, Nominal filtration. Paper - Non-cleanable, Nominal filtration. Non-woven - Non-cleanable, Nominal filtration. Inorganic glass fibre - Non-cleanable, Absolute filtration acc. to ISO-16889. Aquasorb - Water absorbing media, Non-cleanable. For special applications / fluids the filter elements are supplied with SS hardware (end caps & inner tube) and / or different adhesives. Technical specifications subject to change.

Installation Before installation, conduct a visual check to ensure that the filter has not suffered any damage during shipping / handling. Verify that the requested type matches with what stamped on the nameplate. Verify operating pressure with name plate information. During assembly of the filter the tightening torques (refer page 4), the flow direction (direction arrows on the filter head) and the required service height (A3 in fig.1) of the filter element are to be taken into consideration. Mount the filter assembly using the mounting holes on the filter head (D1) considering the flow direction....
