In-Tank Lower Hydraulic Suction Filters for Merlo Telehandlers

Solid contaminants, metal particles, and sludge settling at the bottom of the hydraulic oil tank pose a direct threat to the main hydraulic pump and service hydraulic circuits. A clogged or damaged lower suction filter (installed inside the hydraulic reservoir) causes fluid cavitation, severe pump noise, system pressure drops, and risks catastrophic pump destruction. At PGA Technika, we supply heavy-duty Merlo in-tank hydraulic suction filters engineered to prevent harmful particles from entering the main pump intake line.

Our product range: In-tank suction filters, strainer elements, and hardware

We supply high-quality replacements and original Merlo parts manufactured for high vacuum resistance and filtration efficiency:

• In-tank lower suction filter elements – specialized internal filter cartridges mounted at the base of the hydraulic reservoir to protect pump intake lines.

• High mechanical resistance filtration components – heavy-duty mesh and composite elements built to withstand high intake vacuum without collapsing and resist hot hydraulic oil degradation.

• Suction filters with integrated bypass valves – protective elements preventing pump starvation and element collapse during cold hydraulic fluid starts.

• Suction strainers & filter baskets – heavy-duty mesh strainers trapping particulate debris before reaching main service pumps.

We supply Merlo filter parts compatible with Turbofarmer, Panoramic, Multifarmer, Roto, and compact series models.

Fast dispatch (24-48h) & downtime reduction

Operating a hydraulic pump under suction restriction causes rapid mechanical wear and cavitation. Essential hydraulic suction filters are held in stock for 24-48 hour dispatch. As a dedicated Merlo parts supplier, we also arrange express factory orders for complete hydraulic service filter kits.

Accurate VIN-based Merlo parts verification

In-tank suction filters vary across production years by port thread size, element length, mesh micron rating, and mounting flange configurations depending on tank design. Utilizing the official Merlo parts catalog, our technical specialists will cross-check your machine’s VIN to guarantee a 100% correct component fitment.
