∆P filter = ∆P housing + ∆P element If working in units of bars & L/min, divide above factor by 54.9.
Exercise: Viscosity factor: Divide viscosity by 150 SUS (32 cSt).
Determine ∆P at 80 gpm (303 L/min) for
K93KZ3BP20NP20ND5C using 200 SUS (44 cSt) fluid.
Solution:
∆P housing = 6.0 psi [.41 bar]
∆P element = 80 x .03 x (200÷150) = 3.2 psi
or
∆P eleme = [303 x (.03÷54.9) x (44÷32) = .23 bar]
∆P total = 6.0 + 3.2 = 9.2 psi
or
∆P eleme = [.41 + .23 = .64 bar]
