Machine Oil Filter refers to an accessory that filters impurities or gases through filter paper, and is an engine accessory. So what are the types of oil filters, and what is the working principle of oil filters?
First, the Machine Oil Filter is divided into three types: mechanical separation, centrifugal separation and magnetic adsorption according to the principle.
Secondly, the working principle of the Machine Oil Filter is that under the action of the oil pressure, the oil continuously passes through the filter paper and enters the center pipe, while the impurities in the oil remain on the filter paper.
What kinds of Machine Oil Filters are there?
The Machine Oil Filter is divided into full flow and split flow. The filtering principle of oil filter can be divided into three categories: mechanical separation, centrifugal separation and magnetic adsorption.
Grid filtration is commonly used in mechanical separation. There are small holes of a certain size on the surface of the filter material.
Solid particles in the oil, those with a size larger than the small holes, are blocked on the outer surface of the filter material.
The Machine Oil Filter is one of the four filters, and the other three are the air filter, the air conditioner filter and the fuel filter.
The Machine Oil Filter, also known as the oil grid, is used to remove impurities such as dust, metal particles, carbon deposits and soot particles from the oil, thereby protecting the engine from wear.
How does an Machine Oil Filter work?
We all know that the function of the Machine Oil Filter is to filter out harmful impurities in the oil, and supply the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, supercharger, piston ring and other moving parts with clean oil to lubricate, cool and clean.
Function to prolong the life of these components, so what is the working principle of the Machine Oil Filter?
The working principle of the Machine Oil Filter is: during the operation of the engine, with the operation of the oil pump, the oil with impurities enters the oil filter from the oil inlet on the oil filter baseplate assembly, and passes through the check valve to the filter paper.
The outside is waiting to be filtered. Under the action of the oil pressure, the oil continuously passes through the filter paper and enters the center tube, while the impurities in the oil remain on the filter paper.
How long will the Machine Oil Filter last?
Under normal circumstances, the filter is usually located at the front end of the engine or at the bottom of the oil pan. The upper connection of the filter is the oil pump, and the lower part is connected to the main oil passage of the engine and passes through the main parts for lubrication.
Its function is to intercept and filter the impurities in the oil, and then supply the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, piston ring, cylinder wall, etc., to play the functions of lubrication, cooling and cleaning, to prolong the service cycle of parts.
The filter is mainly composed of filter paper, shell, sealing ring, support spring, bypass valve and other components. Machine Oil Filter replacement cycle: half a year or 5,000 kilometers, or according to the quality of the added lubricating oil (semisynthetic, synthetic oil, etc.) and refer to the manual as appropriate.
Not filtering the effect of the filter directly affects the performance of the lubricating oil, thereby indirectly affecting the power and life of the engine. Therefore, it is advisable to pay attention to and replace the filter in a timely manner.
