Livery aside, filter elements may seem similar in size and shape. In reality, they aren’t, in that performance varies depending on the construction quality of each element
When it’s time to service any machine, it’s standard practice to first check the levels and condition of lubricating and hydraulic oils. If these fluids are deteriorated, they should be replaced along with their filter elements.
However, the conditional is essential. It often happens that, to save money, operators and companies simply top up the oils with new fluids and replace the filter elements with low-cost ones, believing that a fresh filter and a few ounces of oil will allow them to continue working efficiently and profitably. Nothing could be more wrong, especially when it comes to filter elements.
The latter, formally and dimensionally similar when referring to the same machine, are actually very different internally, in terms of their structural and construction materials.
Fai Filtri brand
The differences are inherent in the core of each component, so much so that the most highly regarded manufacturers in the sector, such as Fai Filtri, invest heavily in both research and development to develop increasingly advanced materials and structures, and in quality, to ensure the efficiency of each component. At Fai Filtri, these checks begin when raw materials are selected, carefully inspected as soon as they leave the factory through dimensional and structural analyses.
Choosing reliable, high-performance materials is the first step in ensuring a product that meets expectations. This goal is then pursued throughout production, inspecting not only the various construction phases but also each individual batch. Specialized personnel verify dimensions, assembly, tolerances, and sealing, ensuring that each component meets project requirements and is free of structural defects.
To complete the process, in-house laboratories perform sample tests, such as filter efficiency according to the ISO 16889 standard and filter resistance and durability under simulated conditions of prolonged use. Leakage and flow rate tests are also performed to ensure reliability even in high-pressure or mechanically stressed environments.
If everything is OK, each filter is finally identified by a unique code that allows us to trace the origin of the materials, the tests performed, and the production batch, creating a database from which to access information if needed. At Fai Filtri, product quality is not a goal to be achieved, but a guiding principle to ensure the expected performance and compliance with international industry standards for circuit protection in their machines.
