The Alfa Laval automatic lube oil filter (formerly called the Moatti Filter) is designed to operate for an average of two years, or 12,000 hours, between services. Continuous back-flushing ensures constant pressure and long intervals between inspections.

Alfa Laval automatic filters offer considerable man-hour savings due to their high level of reliability and the fact that they require virtually no supervision.

The Alfa Laval automatic filter is continuously back-flushed with clean oil, column-by-column, ensuring constant pressure in the lube oil system. There are no pressure drops during back-flushing. Contaminants are effectively flushed away from the mesh which stays clean for thousands of operating hours. Manual cleaning is reduced to an absolute minimum.

NEW PRODUCT!

The CCU is an optimized lube oil treatment solution, combining two high performance Alfa Laval technologies:

  • Full-flow automatic filter for collecting abrasive particles.
  • High efficiency disc stack centrifuge removing stopped particles from the backflush oil arriving from the full-flow chamber of the automatic filter, before that oil is returned to the sump. Also cleaning the oil of small deposit-creating particles.

Both components can be built into the same housing (Eliminator™ patented by Alfa Laval), or installed separately but operating in combination. For example:

  • Mounted directly on the engine (for high speed engines), the housing being specifically designed for the engine block, and the unit promoted with the engine by the engine manufacturer.
  • Remote mounted apart from the engine by means of flexible or rigid connexions.
  • The filter and centrifuge installed as separate components for larger installations or where the flow-rates are higher, and connected by suitable pipework.
