Pall HC7500SDS8H Replacement Filter Element — Cross-Reference & Specifications
Pall HC7500SDS8H Replacement Filter Element — Cross-Reference & Specifications
Hydrafil Part Number: BF-PAL-713907-L8-12MB | Ships same day from Detroit, MI | OEM-equivalent performance
The Pall HC7500SDS8H is the long-body, 12-micron, Buna-N variant in the HC7500 / 50-AT series — chosen specifically for high-flow hydraulic systems where the extended 10.9 in element length provides greater media surface area, lower pressure drop, and longer service intervals between change-outs. The 12µm Buna-N configuration targets proportional valve systems, industrial presses, and machine tool hydraulics running standard mineral oil or water glycol, where fluid cleanliness must exceed what a 25µm element delivers but the system doesn’t demand the tight control of a 6µm servo-grade filter. If you’re sizing for flow rates that would push a short-body element into excessive ΔP, the L8 long-body SDS8H is the correct OEM specification.
Dimensional Specifications
The long-body 10.9 in length is a critical dimensional spec — confirm this before swapping from a short-body SDS4H, as the housings are not interchangeable.
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Outer Diameter (Top) | 5.06 in |
| Outer Diameter (Bottom) | 5.06 in |
| Element Length | 10.9 in |
| Thread Size | 1.5 - 16 |
| Collapse Rating | 100 psid |
Media & Construction
The BF-PAL-713907-L8-12MB is engineered to Hydrafil’s full OEM-equivalent construction standard, with every material specification matched to the Pall HC7500SDS8H.
- Filtration Media: Microglass Fiber Media — the extended 10.9 in body means significantly more media area than the short-body variant, delivering lower initial pressure drop and a longer time-to-bypass under contamination load
- Seal Material: Buna-N (Nitrile) — the standard specification for systems operating on mineral oil, water glycol, or water-in-oil emulsions at temperatures up to 225°F; provides reliable sealing in the broadest range of conventional hydraulic fluid environments
- End Caps: Corrosion Resistant Steel — prevents rust and corrosion in demanding industrial service environments
- Center Tube: Corrosion Resistant Steel — supports the media pack against collapse under the full 100 psid rated differential pressure
Filtration Performance Rating
At 12µm, the SDS8H captures particles that a 25µm element would pass — protecting proportional valves, vane pumps, and gear motors from the silt-range contamination that causes accelerated wear and erratic valve response. The long-body format means this protection is delivered at lower pressure drop than the equivalent short-body 12µm element.
The L8 long-body format is the OEM specification for larger HPU installations where flow rates exceed 20–30 GPM and extended element life between service intervals is a priority — common in automated manufacturing lines, injection molding machines, and press circuits.
| Rating | Value |
|---|---|
| Beta Ratio (Bx) | 200 |
| Beta Ratio Bx[c] | 1000 |

About the Pall HC7500SDS8H
The HC7500SDS8H is the long-body 12µm Buna-N specification in Pall’s HC7500 / 50-AT series, used in high-flow industrial hydraulic power units serving machine tools, automated assembly equipment, and large injection molding machines running mineral oil. The long-body format is specified when system designers need to balance 12µm cleanliness requirements with the flow capacity of larger HPU installations — delivering servo-adjacent fluid quality to systems that don’t need a full servo-grade 6µm element.
