Schroeder Hydraulics 9VM60 Hydraulic Filter Element

The Schroeder Hydraulics 9VM60 hydraulic cartridge filter element is a 60 µm nominal filtration element designed for Schroeder 9V-series hydraulic filter housings, delivering clean hydraulic oil by trapping particulate contaminants before they reach pumps and valves. It uses metal mesh media crafted for strength and durability in demanding hydraulic applications, and it is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 107°C (225°F), making it suitable for mid- to high-temperature environments. The element is associated with part number 7604628 and is part of Schroeder’s original elements lineup, which is built to condition fluid within Schroeder filtration systems. For reference, the 9V family typically features outside diameters of about 2.9 inches and lengths around 9.5 inches, enabling consistent fitment across Schroeder’s 9V-series housings. Common applications include industrial hydraulic circuits and mobile equipment where maintaining low contamination levels is critical to extend pump life and reduce wear; this 60 µm rating provides a balance between dirt-holding capacity and differential-pressure performance for standard hydraulic fluids.
