## Core Product Advantages

### 1. Genuine 02Q Microglass Ultra-precision Media + Short-size Design, Balancing Precision Filtration & Compact Installation
As an authentic filter element from Parker’s Hydraulic & Industrial Process Filtration Division EMEA, the 926696Q adopts 02Q Microglass high-precision glass fiber media and is paired with the Length 1 short-size specification. It delivers core performance of “ultra-fine impurity interception + compact space adaptation” for the 40CN filter housing. Its 2 µm filtration accuracy precisely captures tiny harmful impurities of 2 µm and above in hydraulic oil—such as 2-5 µm metal powder from the hydraulic system of precision machine tool spindles, 3-6 µm colloidal particles from hydraulic valve group wear, and 2-4 µm debris remaining in the hydraulic drive circuit of electronic equipment. This prevents “micro-wear cumulative damage” to precision components of hydraulic systems (e.g., servo valves, piston pumps). Meanwhile, the short-size design perfectly fits the compact installation space of the 40CN housing, making it especially suitable for scenarios with dense oil circuit layouts and limited installation height inside equipment (e.g., branch circuits of small and medium-sized hydraulic stations, integrated hydraulic modules). No additional installation space for long-size filter elements is required, solving the pain points of “difficult installation of high-precision filters” and “insufficient filtration accuracy of compact oil circuits”—achieving a dual balance between “precision protection” and “efficient space utilization”.

### 2. 2 µm Ultra-precision Filtration Accuracy, Covering Medium-flow Medium-pressure Precision Scenarios
A 2 µm micron rating is a key choice for medium-flow hydraulic systems requiring “precision protection + stable operation,” and it can be widely adapted to medium-pressure working conditions corresponding to the 40CN housing:
– In the hydraulic feed circuit of automotive component precision machining machines (e.g., transmission gear grinding machines), it filters tiny metal powder to ensure the 0.001 mm-level positioning accuracy of the machine tool.
– In the hydraulic drive system of electronic device packaging machines, it intercepts oil contamination and impurities to avoid affecting packaging accuracy.
– In the auxiliary hydraulic pitch circuit of small wind power equipment, it filters sand and wear particles to ensure the sensitive response of the pitch mechanism.

Compared to filter elements with 5 µm or coarser precision, the 926696Q improves filtration efficiency by 60% and can stabilize oil cleanliness at NAS Class 6, meeting the strict standards of ISO 4413 hydraulic system cleanliness. Even when facing medium-flow demands of 0-450 L/min, its optimized media structure can control flow resistance within a reasonable range, avoiding excessive system pressure loss—making it a “preferred filter element for medium-flow medium-pressure precision scenarios”.

### 3. Nitrile Rubber Seal Adapts to Conventional Working Conditions, with Excellent Cost-effectiveness
The sealing material is Nitrile (nitrile rubber), which has excellent mineral oil resistance and elasticity. It maintains tight sealing within a temperature range of -40 to 100°C (-40 to 212°F) and supports a maximum working pressure of 70 bar (1015 psi), perfectly adapting to most conventional working conditions:
– In ordinary industrial equipment using mineral oil (e.g., small air compressors, plastic molding machines), nitrile rubber seals exhibit stable oil swelling resistance, with a service life of over 1,500 hours.
– In normal-temperature workshop environments (e.g., automotive component processing plants, electronic equipment production workshops), it maintains good elasticity without leakage risks.
– Compared to fluoroelastomer seals, nitrile rubber has lower procurement costs in conventional working conditions and no need to pay extra for extreme environment resistance. It provides a “reliable and economical” sealing solution for medium-flow medium-pressure precision systems, especially suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises with controlled budgets.

### 4. Short-size Design Compatible with 40CN Housing, No Equipment Modification Required for Installation
The Length 1 short-size specification is precisely matched to the interface of the 40CN filter housing and can be directly installed in the standard slot of the 40CN housing—no modification to equipment pipelines, adjustment of hydraulic module layouts, or replacement of housings is needed. Whether it is the dense branch oil circuits of small and medium-sized hydraulic stations, the integrated hydraulic units of equipment, or the hydraulic compartments of mobile devices with limited space, it can be easily adapted. The installation process is consistent with that of conventional short-size filter elements, allowing maintenance personnel to perform quick replacements without special training. Enterprises can upgrade filtration accuracy without additional equipment modification costs. Meanwhile, the short-size design, combined with the uniform fiber distribution of 02Q Microglass media, enables more uniform oil distribution inside the filter element, avoiding filtration dead zones caused by local impurity accumulation. Its filtration stability is 30% higher than that of ordinary short-size filter elements, balancing “installation convenience” and “filtration reliability” while reducing equipment maintenance difficulty and time costs.

### 5. Controllable Full-cycle Maintenance Costs, Reducing Burden on Precision Systems
The 926696Q’s features reduce maintenance costs of enterprises’ medium-flow medium-pressure precision hydraulic systems from multiple dimensions:
– It is compatible with mineral oils, vegetable oils, and some synthetic oils, eliminating the need to stock separate filter elements for different oil types and reducing inventory categories and capital occupation.
– The 2 µm ultra-precision covers the filtration needs of multiple precision devices (e.g., precision machine tools, electronic packaging machines, small wind power equipment), reducing the types of filter elements purchased.
– The high dirt-holding capacity of 02Q Microglass media (90% higher than ordinary glass fiber media) combined with the short-size design extends the replacement cycle, reducing replacement frequency by 40% compared to ordinary short-size filter elements of the same precision. It can reduce 3-4 maintenance shutdowns per year and lower labor costs.
– The cost-effectiveness and conventional working condition adaptability of nitrile rubber seals further control the overall use cost of the filter element.

In addition, the original quality avoids the “precision component wear-equipment overhaul” vicious cycle caused by non-genuine filter elements (e.g., substandard precision, media shedding), reducing maintenance costs for high-value precision components such as servo valves and piston pumps (single maintenance costs can be reduced by hundreds of thousands of yuan)—making it a “cost-effective precision choice” for medium-flow medium-pressure precision systems of small and medium-sized enterprises.
