Filtration & Complete Filter Systems System Monitoring and Associated Electronics Manifolds

EQUIPMENT HIRE K&R Hydraulics offer hydraulic equipment for hire to a range of industries on both short and long term arrangements.

We have a Hydac FAM-45 Filtration, Dehumidifier and Degassing Unit.

The unit operates on the principle of vacuum dewatering to eliminate dissolved water. This process also frees and dissolves gases from hydraulic and lubrication fluids. The unit is extremely economical using Hydac offline filter element technology with its high contamination retention capacity and filtration efficiency.

The equipment is designed for recirculative connection to an operating hydraulic system, allowing your manufacturing process to continue undisturbed, whilst the hydraulic fluid condition is restored in parallel.

K&R Hydraulics will deliver, install and leave the unit for as long as it is required, and collect on completion.

We also have Hydraulic Power Packs for hire, ranging from 1kW-45kW.
