oil filter It is an important component in the engine lubrication system. It is mainly used to filter the oil circulating inside the engine and remove impurities and pollutants in the oil.
The oil filter is usually installed outside the engine body and connected to the oil assembly and oil pan. When the engine is running, the oil is pumped out from the oil pan through the oil pump. It first flows through the oil filter for filtration, and then is delivered to the moving parts for lubrication.
The main functions of the oil filter include:
1. Filter impurities
When the oil circulates in the engine, it will carry various impurities such as metal wear debris, combustion residues, and oxides. The oil filter can effectively filter out these pollutants.
2. Purify engine oil
The filter is equipped with filter media, which can absorb and remove sediments, moisture, etc. in the engine oil to maintain the cleanliness of the engine oil.
3. Extend the service life of engine oil
Clean engine oil can better lubricate and reduce wear, thereby extending the service life of the engine oil.
Oil filters are generally removable, and new filters need to be replaced regularly to ensure that the engine oil can continue to be filtered efficiently. Depending on the usage conditions, the replacement cycle is generally 3,000-10,000 kilometers.
