0015 D 010 BN4HC filter element: specifications & equivalents
The 0015 D 010 BN4HC is a HYDAC pressure-line hydraulic filter element, built with bn/hc=betamicron® low collapse media, sized 35.1 × 41.9 mm OD × length (ID 12.3 mm), rated at 10 µm absolute (β10 > 1000 (HYDAC grade convention: β12(c) ≥ 1000)). Verify against the current manufacturer data sheet before ordering.
Dimensions, ratings and seal compound are taken directly from the HYDAC electronic catalog (catalog.hydac.com). Outside diameter and length are converted from the inch values printed on the catalog page; verify against the current HYDAC data sheet before ordering.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- “10 µm nominal” and “12 µm at β1000” can describe the very same media — one is reported at β≥200, the other at β≥1000 per ISO 16889. Compare ratings at the same Beta test point, not just the printed micron number.
- Nitrile (NBR) seals are standard for mineral hydraulic oil but fail early in some phosphate-ester fluids and at sustained high temperature; verify seal compound against the fluid data sheet (fluorocarbon/Viton executions may be required).
- End-cap geometry and the number/position of O-rings block interchange even when OD and length match — visually compare end caps before fitting, especially with aftermarket cartridges.
