Zinga SLF216SO Tank Top Filter

The Zinga SLF216SO is a tank-top return line filter assembly designed to provide dependable contamination control for hydraulic systems while maximizing available reservoir space. Mounted directly to the hydraulic tank, the SLF216SO filters return-line fluid before it re-enters the reservoir, helping maintain cleaner hydraulic fluid, reduce component wear, and extend the service life of pumps, valves, cylinders, motors, and other critical hydraulic components. Its compact tank-top design makes it ideal for industrial, manufacturing, agricultural, construction, mobile, and OEM hydraulic applications.

Equipped with SAE-16 ports and capable of handling return-line flow rates up to 40 GPM, the SLF216SO is well suited for medium-flow hydraulic systems requiring efficient return-line filtration. The assembly accepts replaceable Zinga SLE2 and ZSLE2 Series filter elements, allowing users to select either economical cellulose media or high-efficiency Z-Glass (fiberglass) media based on the cleanliness requirements of the application.

The “SO” (spin-on) configuration provides fast, convenient filter element replacement, reducing maintenance time and simplifying routine servicing. An integral tank breather is incorporated into the assembly to help equalize reservoir pressure while reducing the entry of airborne contaminants into the hydraulic tank, further supporting overall fluid cleanliness and system reliability.

Designed for use with petroleum-based hydraulic fluids, the SLF216SO operates in temperatures up to +250°F and utilizes durable Buna-N seals to provide reliable fluid compatibility and leak-resistant performance. Its tank-mounted design minimizes plumbing requirements while providing efficient filtration in a compact installation footprint.

Ideal for hydraulic power units, industrial machinery, manufacturing equipment, agricultural equipment, construction machinery, mobile hydraulic systems, and a wide range of fluid power applications, the Zinga SLF216SO delivers dependable return-line filtration in a compact, service-friendly package. Its combination of 40 GPM flow capacity, SAE-16 ports, spin-on filter configuration, integral tank breather, and compatibility with SLE2 and ZSLE2 Series replacement elements makes it an excellent choice for maintaining clean hydraulic fluid and protecting critical hydraulic system components.
