The MPT tank top return filter with air breather is a vital component in hydraulic systems, offering an efficient solution for oil filtration across various industrial applications. Engineered with precision, this tank-mounted filter ensures optimal cleanliness and performance through its external-to-internal oil flow filtration system. Designed to handle working pressures of up to 8 bar (116 psi) and flow rates reaching 300 l/min (79 gpm), it guarantees reliable operation even under demanding hydraulic conditions. The filter’s robust construction features threaded connections ranging from 3/8” to 1 1/4” BSP/NPT/SAE, providing compatibility with a wide array of hydraulic systems and facilitating easy installation. Its flexibility is further enhanced by options for single or multi-port configurations, allowing users to select between atmospheric or pressurized anti-splash air breathers based on their specific operational requirements. Additional features, such as a snap-attach extension tube, exit flow diffuser, and an oil level dipstick with an incorporated mounting fastener, contribute to the filter’s usability and convenience in hydraulic applications. The removable bowl and element design is particularly beneficial, preventing contamination from re-entering the tank during maintenance activities, which is crucial for sustaining filtration efficiency and protecting hydraulic components from wear and tear.

Furthermore, the integrated air breather plug ensures that the hydraulic system maintains optimal oil quality and performance by allowing for necessary air exchange while preventing dirt and moisture ingress. This comprehensive filtration solution plays a key role in enhancing the longevity and reliability of hydraulic systems, making the MPT tank top return filter an indispensable accessory for maintaining hydraulic fluid integrity and overall system efficiency. In summary, the MPT tank top return filter with air breather not only supports optimal performance in hydraulic applications but also embodies reliability, ease of use, and advanced filtration technology, essential for industries relying on hydraulic power for their operations.
