Parker Hannifin has introduced the GLF iprotect series, a new generation of low pressure filters. As with Parker’s proven high and medium pressure types, the innovative and environmentally friendly design is based on patented filter elements. With the introduction of the new product family, Parker has consolidated its low pressure area for clearer and more user-friendly filter selection and improved customer service.
The efficient GLF iprotect filters in sizes 2 and 3 (further sizes to follow) are designed for flow rates up to 800 l/min, with pace-saving ‘in-tank’ solutions are available for tight spaces. The elements feature the powerful and durable Parker quantumfibre filter material for particle sizes 2μ, 5μ, 10μ and 20μ. Thanks to the patented element design, users benefit from a lasting aftermarket business.
For the phased introductory and conversion process, during which the existing TTF, BGT, Tanktopper, FT and Multiflow low pressure series will be replaced by high quality and at least functionally identical GLF iprotect filters, customers will receive active support, for example through the user-friendly online part number converter.
