COMPRESSOR
OIL FILTER
The
compressor
lubrication
and
cooling oil system includes
3
spin-on, throwaway
type oil
filter. With a clean, new filter
element,
all of the oil flows
through the full element area,
from the outsidelinside.
As
each element
becomes
con-
taminated with dirt, a pressure
differential is created in the fil-
ter housing between the oil in-
let and outlet ports.
As this differential approaches
25 psi (175 kPa), the bypass
valve in the oil control valve
starts to open, thus permitting
a small quantity of oil to bypass
the filter.
As the contaminants continue-
to build ujp, more and more of
the oil bypasses the filter me-
dia itself.
This bypass does not provide
any filtration. but does allow a
maximum flow of compressor
lubricating
and cooling oil to
preclude any possible damage
from loss of oil. Also the design
of the filter prevents any wa-
shing-off
of any dirt during oil
bypassing.
NOTICE
The 011 filter must be re-
placed every 500 hours of
operation. On new or over-
hauled units, replace the ele-
ment after the first 50 and
150
hours
of
operation;
thereafter, service the
0&1
IU-
ter every 500 hours.
To service the oil filters it will
first be necessary to shut the
unit down. Wipe off any exter-
nal dirt and oil from the exterior
of the filterto minimize any con-
tamination from entering the lu-
brication system.
Proceed as
