Multifunctional Liquid Level/Temperature/Ventilation/Return Filtration
Oil tanks in hydraulic and lubrication systems must provide specific basic functions for proper operation. This includes a suitable filling port for a safe and clean filling of the oil, a qualified air breather to prevent the penetration of any ambient air contaminants in the event of level fluctuations, a tank top return filter to keep the oil clean, liquid level monitoring to control operational readiness, temperature monitoring and a reliable sampling port, so oil samples remain free of secondary contamination.

FAQ: Tank Top Installation Multifunctional
- What do Bühler Technologies multifunctional devices in the Fluidcontrol range offer?
Oil reservoirs in hydraulic and oil supply systems are typically designed for specific applications and therefore provide limited space on the tank cover for installing monitoring and control components. By combining essential functions into a single installation unit, space requirements and installation times can be significantly reduced.
- Which functions can currently be combined?
In the Bühler Technologies Multi-Terminal, the functions of level and temperature monitoring, an oil sampling connection, tank ventilation, as well as filling and return-line filtration are integrated into a single installation unit.
The FC Terminal provides tank ventilation, level and temperature monitoring, tank filling, and an oil sampling connection within the footprint of a standardized breather filter connection.
- What additional advantages does multifunctionality offer?
Multifunctionality provides cost benefits for OEMs on two levels:
Logistics and procurement: Multiple functions are combined into a single ordering and processing procedure, reducing administrative effort.
Assembly: There is no need to prepare separate installation points or install each function individually, which saves labor time and reduces space requirements.
