reynold’snumber
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants

return line filtration
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
Filters located upstream of the reservoir but after fluid has passed through the system's output components (cylinders, motors, etc. ).
return line
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
A location in a line conducting fluid from working device to reservoir.
residual dirt capacity
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
The dirt capacity remaining in a service loaded filter element after use, but before cleaning, measured under the same conditions as the dirt capacity of a new filter element.
reservoir filter
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
A filter installed in a reservoir in series with a suction or return line.
reservoir
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
A container for storage of liquid in a fluid power system.
