The hydro expansion system utilizes high-speed PLC control and pressure sensors to produce an exact hydro expansion. This is achieved by matching a preset pressure value (operator entered) with actual line pressure or expansion pressure. When the actual line pressure reaches the preset value, the expansion system instantly dumps pressure providing a fast constant expansion and fin bond.

Hydro mechanical tube expansion is a method of tube expansion, which places a projectile, usually a ball, into a tube with water pressure forcing the ball through the tube. Generally, the amount of expansion is a function of the ball diameter and the tube wall thickness. This method is suggested where straight length tubes are used with one operator performing the expansion.

Hydro Wound Filter Cartridges are available with polypropylene or cotton materials wound in polypropylene, stainless steel and tined steel cores. These are individually shrink wrapped in a polypropylene tube. These are available in lengths from 10″-70″.
