When designing hydraulic systems, factoring in pressure drops becomes crucial as they significantly impact system performance and machinery consumption.

Calculation Methods

1. Mathematical Method For accurate pressure drop calculations in a filtration system:

• Seek professional guidance: Contact Sinft directly for customized consultations.
• Utilize software tools: Use the Sinft Hydraulic Filter Selector tool for precise pressure drop indications, selecting specific characteristics through the configurator.
• Manual calculation: Apply relevant formulas for self-calculation.

2. Graphical Method This method provides a preliminary calculation using available graphs and tables based on system and component characteristics.

Sinft's Approach Sinft includes pressure drop curves for each series in their catalog under standard conditions: mineral oil with a kinematic viscosity of 30 cSt and density of 0.86 kg/dm3, adhering to ISO 3968 specifications. These curves, derived from tests conducted in Sinft laboratories, empower system designers to evaluate the best hydraulic circuit solutions independently.

Fluid Variations For fluids with different properties, approximate values can be calculated based on Sinft's outlined considerations.

Conclusion Understanding and accurately calculating pressure losses in hydraulic filtration systems is key to optimizing system performance and ensuring efficient machinery operation.
