Continuously automatic backflushing lubricating oil filter The automatic filters, T150, T280 and X280, are designed specifically for full-flow filtering of lubricating oils for trunk piston and crosshead engines. Unique features • Robust disc-type filter elements. • Continuous backflushing. • Filtered oil drives the backflushing process. • Constant pressure drop across the filter. • Compact and space-saving design. • Robust design reduces risk of filter element cracking. • Continuous backflushing significantly prevents adhesion of retained solids to filter surfaces, which results In: - No manual cleaning of filter elements. - Low and constant pressure drop across the filter elements, which further reduces the risk of cracking. • Robust filter elements and continuous backflushing ensure safe protection of the diesel engine, with normally more than 12,000 operating hours between cleaning and Inspec- • Use of filtered oil for backflushing process eliminates the need for external power supply and compressed air. • Constant pressure drop across the filter, combined with the pressure drop indicator, facilitates detection of mal- functions In the lubricating oil system. Lubricating oil filter: Protector X280. Easy to Install and to retrofit as an upgrade to existing

Rib Filter frame Upper half Lower half } Filter element Filter screen Figure 1. Full-flow element: Flow direction through one filtering element (Filtration). Diesel engine protection The filter is installed in the full-flow system as close to the engine as possible to prevent harmful solid particles entering the sensitive parts of the engine. Design The filter elements are assembled into a disc stack. The filter elements comprise a filter frame and filter screen, and are divided into sections by ribs. The separator is installed in the bypass system. Its function is to remove harmful...
