Collection: Oil Filter Element
An oil filter element is a crucial component of an engine's lubrication system that helps maintain the cleanliness of the engine oil. The oil filter filters out metal particles and impurities in the compressor lubricating oil, reduce the wear and tear of the main engine, and extends the service life of the main engine. When the compressor is running, oil is continuously delivered to the friction surfaces of each moving part to form a lubricating oil film for lubrication. Engine oil itself contains a certain amount of colloids, impurities, moisture and additives. At the same time, during the operation of the compressor, some metal debris and trace dust impurities in the air enter. At the same time, due to the generation of oil oxides, the impurities in the oil will gradually increase. These impurities flow through various parts of the compressor with the oil. When the compressor is in motion, these substances will be filled between the parts, and the oil film will be destroyed, resulting in increased wear. The impurities in the engine oil are mainly metal debris, colloid, air, moisture, and dust impurities mixed in from the outside caused by motion friction. The function of the oil filter element is to filter and remove impurities, separate and remove these impurities in the engine oil, and ensure the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil. The oil itself has a high viscosity and a high impurity content. The general air compressor oil filter element is made of microporous filter paper, which can filter out impurities in the hydraulic oil, ensure the cleanness of the hydraulic oil, and increase the efficiency of the air compressor.
