How to choose the right construction machinery filter element

Commonly used filter elements in construction machinery include the air filter element, oil filter element, fuel filter element, and hydraulic oil filter element. These filter elements are designed to remove impurities from the air or oil to protect key components and ensure their normal operation.

For instance, the oil filter element plays a crucial role in filtering the oil circulating in the lubrication system. It prevents impurities from entering the parts that require lubrication, thereby reducing wear and tear. Over time, the impurities and dust collected by the oil filter cartridge begin to decrease its filtering effectiveness. Therefore, regular replacement is necessary to maintain optimal filtration and protect the engine and other components.

It is important to note that poor-quality filter elements may not exhibit visible defects externally. However, they often have inferior filter paper materials compared to those from the original factory. The reduced filtration accuracy of such filter elements can lead to severe damage to the machinery.

When the filtration capacity of the oil filter element decreases, impurities mixed with oil can directly impact engine bearings, cylinders, and cylinder tiles. This increases wear and tear on the engine's working parts, resulting in higher maintenance costs and more frequent maintenance requirements compared to using high-quality filter elements.

Proper maintenance, including timely filter element replacement, helps ensure that the machinery remains in optimal working condition. This reduces maintenance costs, allows for uninterrupted operation, and ultimately maximizes profits.
