Centrifugal filter
18.9.1 Description
A by-pass filter of the centrifugal type is provided as a complement
to the main filter. For V-engines two identical filters are used.
The filter comprises a housing (13) containing a hardened steel
spindle (3) on which a dynamically balanced rotor unit (5) is free
to rotate. Oil flows through the housing, up the central spindle
into the rotor.
The rotor comprises two compartments, a cleaning chamber and
a driving chamber. Oil flows from the central tube (6) into the
upper part of the rotor, where it is subject to a high centrifugal
force, and the dirt is deposited on the walls of the rotor in the form
of heavy sludge.
The oil then passes from the cleaning compartment through the
separation cone (9) into the driving compartment which carries
two driving nozzles (12). The passage of the clean oil through the
nozzles provides a driving torque to the rotor and the oil returns
through the filter housing to the engine oil sump. The filter is
provided with a cut-off valve (15) which opens at about 2.5 bar,
Fig 18-8.
18.9.2 Cleaning
It is very important to clean the filter regularly (chapter 04.) as it
collects considerable quantities of dirt and thus unload the main
filter giving longer lifetime for the paper cartridges. If it is found
that the filter has collected the maximum quantity of dirt (about
12 mm, which corresponds about 3.7 kg) at the recommended
cleaning intervals, it should be cleaned more frequently.
Clean the filter as follows, the engine being running, by closing
the valve on the oil delivery pipe to the filter:
1 Slacken off the filter cover clamp (11),
unscrew the
cover nut (1) and lift off the filter body cover (4).
2 Withdraw the rotor assembly
from the spindle (3) and
drain oil from the nozzles before removing the rotor from the
filter body (13). Hold the rotor body and unscrew the rotor cover
nut (2), then separate the rotor cover (5) from the rotor body.
3 Remove the upper circlip (8)
and the separation cone
(9).
