Lube Oil Filter
All Ariel frames require full
flow filtration to a nominal permissible particle size of 20 microns.
All Ariel frames with exception
of JGU:Z/2, JGC:D:Z:U:KBB:V/4 and JGE:K:T:C:D:Z:U:KBB:V/6 are equipped
with simplex, spin-on, pleated paper type filters as standard. These
spin on filters have a nominal filtration of 5 micron. The
filter headers are equipped with pressure gauges to determine pressure
drop across the filter. Ariel recommends replacing the filter element
when the differential pressure across the filter reaches 10 psid at normal
temperatures or at six month intervals (or 4000 hours, whichever comes
first).
The JGU:Z/2, JGC:D:Z:U:KBB:V/4
and JGE:K:T:C:D:Z:U:KBB:V/6 frames are equipped with a simplex, cartridge
style, pleated paper type filters as standard. The
nominal filtration is 1 micron. The
filter housings are equipped with pressure gauges to determine pressure
drop across the filter. Ariel recommends replacing the filter element
when the differential pressure across the filter reaches 15 psid at normal
temperatures or at six month intervals (or 4000 hours, whichever comes
first).
Duplex lube oil filters with continuous
flow transfer valves can be provided as an option. When the duplex filter
is mounted separately (not directly attached to the frame by Ariel), the
original simplex filter must remain on the frame, operating in series
downstream of the duplex filter. The duplex oil filter can be mounted
on JGR:J/2&4, JGH:E:K:T/2 frames.
