Import Tips
• Provide flow rate and micron rating details in invoices to demonstrate filtering apparatus function
• Ensure labeling specifies 'hydraulic fluid power' to distinguish from pneumatic or general liquid filters
• Avoid misdeclaration as tank-mounted; inline designs must show installation evidence
