ZME Series
Medium-Pressure Spin-On Filter Elements
FOR USE WITH DHF SERIES FILTER HEADS
Zinga pressure filters provide in-line system protection for sensitive system components like servo valves, pressure Spin-on filters are used as process and safety filters to protect individual pumps, valves or the entire hydraulic circuit from contamination as measured per ISO 4406.

Application Data
- Reference:
- ßXµ(c) = 2 represents 50% efficiency at Particle Size (Nominal Rating)
- ßXµ(c) = 75 represents 98.7% efficiency at Particle Size (Absolute Rating)
- ßXµ(c) = 200 represents 99.5% efficiency at Particle Size
- Application: Petroleum-based fluids. Consult factory for synthetic fluids
- Caution: Do not use ZME Series filter elements on internal combustion engines.
Zinga Filter Media Types
Z-Glass Media
Multi-Layered, non-woven glass media that provides the highest levels of depth filtration efficiency and capacity. Higher capacity means longer service life. Coupled with a steel support mesh, Z-Glass can withstand higher differential pressures.
Cellulose Media
Traditional paper based media that provides a nominal level of depth filtration and capacity. Used with petroleum-based fluids only. Some grades of cellulose include a layered glass fiber substrate to provide more efficiency.
AquaZorb Media
Water absorbing cellulose based media designed specifically to absorb and retain free water from petroleum-based fluids. Commonly used in offline systems, AquaZorb will operate until it is fully saturated and ultimately curtail flow through the media. A system by-pass valve and service gauge is recommended when using AquaZorb.
Stainless Steel Mesh
Woven in a variety of precision patterns, stainless steel mesh provides a basic surface type filtration with very low differential pressure. Applications include pump protection and “last chance” valve protection. Stainless steel mesh can be serviced by ultrasonic cleaning. (30: 560µ, 60: 280µ, 100: 141µ, 200:75µ, 200×1400: 10µ)
