1320 DN 006 BH4HC filter element: specifications & equivalents

Q: What micron rating does 1320 DN 006 BH4HC use?

This element is rated 6 µm absolute — βx(c) ≥ 1000 per ISO 16889. Always compare Beta ratings at the same test point: two brands may print different micron numbers for the same physical grade.

The 1320 DN 006 BH4HC is a HYDAC pressure-line hydraulic filter element, built with betamicron 4 microglass, high-collapse (210 bar / 3045 psi) media, rated at 6 µm absolute (βx(c) ≥ 1000 per ISO 16889). Verify against the current manufacturer data sheet before ordering.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

Line type is not interchangeable: return-line cartridges are low-collapse executions that typically tolerate roughly 10–20 bar differential, while pressure-line elements are commonly rated 100–210 bar. Installing a low-collapse element in a pressure housing can rupture the media on cold-start spikes.
“10 µm nominal” and “12 µm at β1000” can describe the very same media — one is reported at β≥200, the other at β≥1000 per ISO 16889. Compare ratings at the same Beta test point, not just the printed micron number.
This execution uses nitrile (nbr) seals — verify the compound against the fluid data sheet: standard nitrile (NBR) can fail early in phosphate-ester fluids and at sustained high temperature, where fluorocarbon/Viton executions may be required.

Frequently asked questions

What micron rating does 1320 DN 006 BH4HC use?

This element is rated 6 µm absolute — βx(c) ≥ 1000 per ISO 16889. Always compare Beta ratings at the same test point: two brands may print different micron numbers for the same physical grade.

What replaces the 1320 DN 006 BH4HC filter element?

Cross references are being verified for this model — use the inquiry form and the engineering desk will confirm equivalents.

How do I read the 1320 DN 006 BH4HC part number?

See the designation decoder above: each segment of 1320DN006BH4HC encodes size, line type, filtration grade and media/collapse execution.

How often should a hydraulic filter element be replaced?

Replace at the housing manufacturer’s recommended differential-pressure setting (commonly signalled by a clogging indicator), or on a time-based service interval when no indicator is fitted — never wait for bypass to open continuously, because unfiltered oil then reaches the valves.
