Model 980 and 981 Oil and Fuel Filter Housings
Kaydon Model 980 and 981 Oil and Fuel Filter Housings are durable and robust inline pressure or return line (1,200 psig maximum) filter assemblies used for oil and fuel filtration applications. Both the 980 and 981 are suitable for use with hydraulic systems used in mobile equipment, small industrial hydraulic power units, small lube systems, and diesel fuel transfer where larger filtration assemblies are not practical. They can be substituted for spin-on type filters where extra protection and a more rugged design are desired. The Model 980 is rated for a maximum of 20 gpm and the Model 981 is rated for a maximum of 40 gpm, for oils and diesel fuel (check pressure drop curves to determine initial {clean} pressure drops for your flow and viscosity). The Model 980 uses the KMP 9600 series 4-inch length elements* and the Model 981 uses the 8-inch length elements*, with media selection of 1, 3, 6, 12 and 25 microns. The inlet/outlet connections are 1.5-inch NPTF, reducing flow restriction, plus the internal flow path provides low pressure drop (flow resistance). A color-coded visual differential pressure indicator is provided to signal element replacement. Bowl removal is made easier with a hand grip to help twist the bowl from the filter head. A safety by-pass valve set at 50 psid ensures protection of the element and helps maintain flow before element change-out is required. Mounting is simplified with four mounting holes
V-618 and V-636 Oil and Fuel Filter Vessels
The Model V oil and fuel filtration filter vessels are designed to offer a high-quality solution for industrial oil and fuel filtration applications. The V Vessels are rugged, heavy-duty, carbon steel constructed. The lid is designed with swing eye-bolts for simple and easy removal so that elements can be changed out quickly. The V vessel element seal design prevents fluid by-pass by providing element alignment in addition to secure sealing. The V style knife-edge seal digs into the element flat gaskets to create a tight, no-bypass seal for the top and bottom of the element. The Model V vessels are designed to protect components in oil systems and guard against contamination entering diesel engines through the fuel. The Model V vessels can be used to provide oil filtration or fuel filtration for a wide range of industrial applications.
Model VKS and VKS Duplex Oil and Fuel Filter Vessels
The Model VKS and VKS Duplex oil and fuel filtration filter assemblies are designed to offer a high quality solution for a wide range industrial oil and fuel filtration applications. They are rugged, heavy-duty, carbon steel constructed; designed and built per ASME Code to provide reliable and long-term use in any industrial environment. The VKS vessels work with a variety of Kaydon elements used in general or critical purpose oil or fuel filtration as well as water absorption from oils or fuel.
