![]() ![]() There are three main types of Alfa Laval lube oil filter, all with an automatic backflushing system. The near-constant pressure in the engine’s lubricating oil system makes it easier to detect any malfunctions, simply by registering pressure changes. During backflushing there is no pressure drop at all. In addition, there is only a low, constant pressure drop across the filter elements, which reduces the risk of them cracking. The filters therefore run with more than 12,000 operating hours between cleaning and inspection. The continuous backflushing that is a core feature of Alfa Laval automatic lube oil filter systems prevents any solids adhering to the filter surfaces – which means no manual cleaning of filter elements is required. Their compact, space-saving design makes them easy to install and to retrofit as upgrades to existing installations. Their extremely effective filtering prevents contaminants from entering sensitive parts of the engine, thus reducing engine wear and boosting reliability. Alfa Laval automatic lube oil filter systems are designed specifically for full-flow filtering of the lubricating oils used in trunk piston and crosshead engines.
