Universal Single-Remote Bypass Filtration System
Engine wear is caused by dirt particles of about 5 microns. Bypass filtration removes particles 2 microns or larger, virtually eliminating engine wear. The Ea Bypass Oil Filter (EaBP) provides the best possible filtration protection against wear and oil degradation. Working in conjunction with the engine’s full-flow oil filter, the AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filter operates by filtering oil on a “partial-flow” basis. It draws approximately 10 percent of the oil pump’s capacity at any one time and traps the extremely small, wear-causing contaminants that full-flow filters can’t remove.
THE DANGERS OF SOOT
Carbonaceous combustion particulates, known as soot, are created as a result of the normal diesel combustion process. Soot particles that aren’t expelled via the exhaust system become trapped on the exposed oil film. The rings wipe the particulates into the oil where they aggregate, increasing soot levels in the oil. Dispersant additives will generally keep soot from 0.002 to 0.5 microns in suspension. However, as the amount of soot suspended in the oil increases, the performance of these additives decreases.
Soot Causes Wear
As dispersants in the oil are consumed, soot particles grow to a size that causes problems, indicating a direct correlation between wear and soot concentration; the higher the concentration of soot, the higher the level of wear.
Today’s oil manufacturers are extending oil life by holding higher concentrations of contaminants, including soot, in suspension in the oil. They are also increasing fuel economy by reducing oil viscosity and oil film thickness, therefore reducing the critical contaminant size. Thisfurther necessitates the use of bypass filtration, especially in diesel engines.
Amsoil Bypass Systems
AMSOIL offers several bypass filtration systems and bypass oil filters that can be installed on a variety of popular applications, including Ford* Power Stroke,* Chevrolet* Duramax,* Dodge* Cummins,* heavy-duty trucking, marine and other applications. Bypass filtration is a valuable system for anyone who wants to prolong engine life. It is also beneficial to vehicles that are exposed to high levels of contaminantson a regular basis
AMSOIL Bypass Filters can be utilized over an extended period of mileage, hours or years as outlined in the Chart below. Oil analysis is recommended for extended drain intervals.
Soot Removal
AMSOIL has designed a high-efficiency Bypass filter element that is also a soot removal device. AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filters use a synthetic/cellulose sandwiched media. The inner layer of the element is composed of a highly efficient cellulose media covered with a full synthetic media outer layer. These filters remove 39 percent of soot contaminants less than one micron. Soot removal efficiency increases approximately 10 to 14 percent when the EaBP Filter is used in conjunction with a standard full-flow filter.
High Efficiency
AMSOIL EaBP Filters have an efficiency of 98.7 percent at two microns. At normal operating RPMs the EaBP Filter will filter all of the oil in a typical five quart sump in less than 10 minutes.
