Linee guida per la selezione & Soluzioni alternative

Selection Mnemonic

Port Matching → Flow Demand → Filtration Precision → Pressure Range → Drainage Mode → Special Function

Guida alla decisione di selezione

Dimensione della porta: Select 1/4″(02), 3/8″(03) or 1/2″(04) according to pipeline; this model is 3/8″.
Flow Demand: Misurare 30 for medium flow (1400 l/min); choose Size 20 for low flow, Misurare 40/60 for high flow.
Filtration Precision: Standard 5μm for most industrial scenarios; precision equipment optional 2μm (suffix with “G”).
Intervallo di pressione: 0.02~0.8MPa for general use; select 1.6MPa version for high-pressure systems.
