Atlas Oil Filter 1621507500 for Air Compressors 20 Micron Filtration

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, providing superior protection against wear.
• High Dirt Holding Capacity: Engineered with deep pleats and optimized media area to retain significant contaminants, extending service intervals and reducing maintenance costs.
• Robust Construction for Reliability:
  • Casing: Made from heavy-gauge steel or durable composite materials to withstand high system pressures and vibration
  • End Caps: Polymer or steel caps bonded to the media to prevent bypass
  • Gasket: Precision-molded, oil-resistant gasket ensures a perfect, leak-free seal
• Anti-Drainback Valve: Prevents oil from draining out when the engine is off, ensuring instant oil pressure upon startup.
• Bypass Valve: Safety feature that allows unfiltered oil to bypass if clogged, ensuring continuous oil flow.
• Optimal Flow & Pressure Drop: Designed to provide excellent filtration without restricting oil flow, maintaining proper lubrication pressure.

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: Cleaned oil flows through center tube to central outlet port
4. Safety Bypass: If media clogs, bypass valve opens to maintain oil flow
