Providing Quality Oil Care to Industry

RMF By-Pass Units

RMF By-Pass Units

The hydraulic market accepts that 80% of mechanical failures are caused by contamination in the system. The Off-Line Units attack contamination of your systems at source. In addition to solid particles, these filters are also capable of removing water from the oil.

RMF By-Pass Unit

The By-pass filter comes equipped with an integrated pressure compensated flow control valve. This valve bleeds oil from the main hydraulic system, passes this through the filter after which it is returned to the hydraulic reservoir. The amount of oil extracted from the main system at any time is insignificant ensuring that it will not affect the working of the main system. Most commonly used biodegradable oils in the mobile sector are suitable for filtration with RMF filter elements.

RMF By-pass filter units can be fitted to every imaginable mobile application where hydraulic and/or transmission systems are present. Installation is very simple, the filter housing provides mounting slots on all four sides and the pressure and return connections are available on the side and the back of the By-Pass unit. In recent years RMF Systems have developed a great deal of experience in cleaning and keeping clean hydraulic and transmission systems on:

  • Excavators
  • Wheel loaders
  • Forestry machines
  • Asphalt machines
  • Concrete pumps
  • Aviation ground support equipment
  • Agricultural machines
  • Extremely clean oil due to high filtration efficiency
  • Prevention of channel forming by radial filtration direction
  • Large dirt and water holding capacity
  • Compact and easy-maintenance design
  • Environmentally friendly elements available
  • Longer usage life for oil and components
  • Reduces cost of ownership
