Supralon Filter Elements
TMfor hydraulic and lubrication ﬂuids• Replacement ﬁlter elements forPall Ultipor® and Coralon® designs• Stress and Static Charge
Resistant Technology• Betax(c) ≥2000 Rated Performance• Long Service LifePISUPRALONEN

Pall Supralon ﬁlter elements are designed
for use in Pall Ultipor and othermanufacturers housings.

The unique ‘composite structure of Supralon ﬁlter
elements has been optimized to deliver long service
life, including applications that can experience
upset conditions (e.g., water ingression)

Asymmetric Pack Construction• New upstream and downstream drainagemesh pairings• Heavier weight ﬁltration medium with ﬁxed,
tapered pore construction• Optimized pleat heights and pleat counts

Beta ≥ 2000 Rating• Faster system cleanup rates• Cleaner achieved system cleanliness levels

Leadership in Lube andHydraulic Filtration

Proprietary Filter Medium Construction• Heavy weight, tapered pore medium to enhance
dirt holding capacity• Small diameter inert, inorganic ﬁbers in a ﬁxed
pore matrix to deliver high efﬁciency performance• Uniform ﬁlter medium control layer to ensure
performance consistency

Redesigned Filter Medium Support Structure• A unique pairing of up and downstream meshes
and open, high strength support material
optimizes ﬂow distribution for long life andenhanced gel resistance, and provides additional
support during cold starts

Proprietary Outer Helical Wrap
• Elements are tightly spiral wrapped with the wrap
bonded to each pleat to ensure optimal pleat
spacing and full medium utilization even under
severe duty applications• Pall has demonstrated industry leadership

through the introduction of an array ofinnovative technologies over the morethan 70 years we have been manufacturing
L&H ﬁlters

Protecting ﬂuid systems relies on the ﬁlter’s ability tomaintain ﬂuid cleanliness throughout its service life.
Testing (SAE ARP4205) has shown that typical systemstresses such as ﬂow cycles and dirt loading can reduce
a ﬁlter’s ability to maintain ﬂuid cleanliness over time.
This graph shows that different manufacturers’ ﬁltersdeliver good ﬂuid cleanliness early in service life, but astime goes on, most have their ability to maintain ﬂuid
cleanliness drastically reduced. In contrast, Supralonﬁlters incorporate stress-resistant technology, whichenables them to produce sustained ﬂuid cleanlinessover the full life of the ﬁlter.

• Better performance in ‘real world’ conditions

Fast System Clean-up To Achieve Desired Fluid Cleanliness Levels
Supralon Filters have a Beta ≥ 2000 rating for superior
control of particulate contaminants

Supralon Filters• 2X better particle removal
efﬁciency compared toBX(c)≥1000 rated ﬁlters and10X better efﬁciency thancommon BX(c)≥200 rated ﬁlters• Significantly fewer passes
required to reach target

Protecting the Fluid, Filter, And Other
Components From Static Discharge• Supralon ﬁlters incorporate a novel outer wrap,
designed to minimize static charge build-up in
the element• Anti-static design dramatically reduces
damaging static charge generation compared toconventional lube and hydraulic ﬁlter elements• Static charge resistance is a standard featureincluded across the entire Supralon product range

Conditions such as varying flow, cold starts, shock andvibration can potentially reduce the effectiveness of afilter in an operating system. The Cyclic Stabilization
Test examines the effects of cyclic flow conditions
and dirt loading on the capture and retention
characteristics of the filter. The result is an improved
filter performance reporting method that simply tells
the user via ISO Codes the level of contamination
control that can be maintained throughout the filter’sservice life.
