Lube oil filter T-160 Lube oil filter – T-160 range Continuously automatic backflushing lube oil filter Application The automatic filter T-160 is designed specifically for full-flow filtration of lubricating oil used in engines that burn all types of fuels (distillate, Gas, DO, bio-fuels and HFO). The T-160 is intended for protection of: – the main lubrication system on small and medium speed engines – servo or control oil systems on 2-stroke engines – turbocharger lubrication systems The T-160 requires minimal investment and yet delivers: – highly reliable operation at minimal running costs – true peace of mind Unique features • Robust disc-type filter elements • Constant pressure drop across the filter • Filtered oil drives the backflushing process • Compact and simple design • Suitable for cleaning backflushed oil in a centrifuge (Eliminator). Key benefits • Simple design – with minimum components facilitates maintenance and guarantees low operating costs. • Environmentally friendly – no oil loss, extended lifetime of oil, no cartridge disposal. • Durable – Robust design. • Easy maintenance – Continuous backflushing significantly reduces 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. • Easy to troubleshoot – Constant pressure drop across the filter, combined with the pressure drop indicator, facilitates the detection of a malfunction in the lube oil system. • Flexible installation: – Backflush can be connected directly to centrifuge. – Use of filtered oil for the backflushing process eliminates the need for auxiliary power (no air or electricity).
