Centrifugal Oil Filters: For Automotive

The oil filter, also called the oil filter or oil grid, is located in the engine lubrication system. The upstream of the filter is the oil pump, and the downstream is the part of the engine that needs to be lubricated. Oil filters can be divided into full flow and split flow. The full flow filter is connected in series between the oil pump and the main oil circuit, which can filter out all the lubricating oil entering the main oil circuit. The shunt filter is connected in parallel with the main oil circuit and only filters part of the lubricating oil sent by the oil pump.

Large centrifugal filters have been used for many years to filter bulk liquids and lubricants, and no one doubts their efficiency. They can handle large volumes of oil, their principle of operation is simple and foolproof, and no filter element needs to be changed. However, to our knowledge, the principle of centrifugal separation has so far not been applied to filters installed on road vehicles, when we recently examined a new centrifugal oil filter produced by Glacier Metal Company Ltd., Wembley Alperton , Middx., I wonder why. There is no doubt about the claimed results of this new filter, this type has certain advantages that should allow it to be used in all types of internal combustion engines. Currently, models are being produced mainly for commercial vehicles and stationary fuel engines, but eventually there will also be models for private car use.

The function of the oil filter

The filter filters out the harmful impurities in the oil from the oil pan, and supplies clean oil to the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, supercharger, piston ring and other moving pairs to lubricate, cool and clean, thereby prolonging the life of these parts. service life. Simply put, the function of the oil filter is to filter the oil, so that the oil entering the engine is cleaner, preventing impurities from entering the engine and damaging the precision parts.
