Industrial lubricants
Capacity
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
The amount of contaminants a philtre will hold before an excessive pressure drop is caused. Most philtres have bypass valves which open when a philtre reaches its rated capacity.
Cams
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
Eccentric shafts used in most internal combustion engines to open and close valves.
Bypass valve
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
A valve mechanism that assures system fluid flow when a preselected differential pressure across the philtre element is exceeded; the valve allows all or part of the flow to bypass the philtre ...
Bushing
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
A short, externally threaded connector with a smaller size internal thread.
Bypass filtration
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
A system of filtration in which only a portion of the total flow of a circulating fluid system passes through a philtre at any instant or in which a philtre having its own circulating pump operates ...
Carbon type
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
The distinction between paraffinic, naphthenic, and aromatic molecules. In relation to lubricant base stocks, the predominant type present.
Burst pressure rating
Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants
The maximum specified inside-out differential pressure that can be applied to a philtre element without outward structural or filter-medium failure.
