Gardner Denver Oil Filter 2116110 for Screw Air Compressors 10-20 Micron

An oil filter is a critical component in any lubrication or hydraulic system, designed to remove contaminants such as dirt, metal particles, soot, and carbon deposits from oil before it circulates through an engine, compressor, turbine, or hydraulic unit. By continuously cleaning the oil, it prevents abrasive wear, protects sensitive components, and ensures optimal performance and extended service life for both the fluid and the machinery it protects.

• Advanced Filtration Media: Utilizes a blend of cellulose, synthetic fibers, and glass to create a high-density matrix that captures contaminants as small as 10-20 microns.
• High Dirt Holding Capacity: Engineered with deep pleats and optimized media area to extend service intervals and reduce maintenance frequency.
• Robust Construction: Heavy-gauge steel or durable composite materials withstand high system pressures and vibration without failure.
• Anti-Drainback Valve: Prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, ensuring instant oil pressure upon startup.
• Bypass Valve: Safety feature allows unfiltered oil to bypass if clogged, ensuring continuous oil flow to the engine.
• Optimal Flow & Pressure Drop: Maintains proper lubrication pressure while providing excellent filtration.

1. Oil Entry: Pressurized, unfiltered oil enters through perimeter ports.
2. Filtration: Oil is forced through microporous pleated media, trapping contaminants.
3. Clean Oil Exit: Filtered oil flows through center tube to central outlet port.
4. Safety Bypass: If clogged, bypass valve opens to maintain oil flow.
