FPT Industrial blow-by filters reduce emissions into the atmosphere and oil consumption, capturing oil mist and contaminants, ensuring clean air circulation and reducing engine wear.
HOW IT WORKS
Part of the gases produced by combustion when the engine is running leaks through the piston ring openings, mixing with oil fumes in the sump. These vapors produced by combustion increase both the pressure in the crankcase, decreasing the useful power generated by pistons, and the production of pollutants due to oil rising into the engine head.
To keep the pressure into acceptable value this mixture is convey into the engine intake. This system is known as Closed Crankcase Ventilation (CCV).
In order to reduce oil consumption and emissions, the oil in this mixture is partially separated with a specific device: Blow-By filter.
PERFORMANCE
A CCV configuration requires high efficiency for oil separators in order to avoid loss of turbocharger efficiency. Blow-by filters remove airborne oil droplets from the crankcase gases which decrease engine efficiency, also reducing compressor fouling.
WHY CHOOSE AN FPT GENUINE BLOW BY FILTER
Laboratory results highlighted a reduction in the maintenance interval taking as reference the FPT Genuine offer (risk factor ≤100%).
Consequently potencial risks of not using FPT Genuine Parts:
Longer times for parts assembly/disassembly affecting vehicle availability
Out of spec increasing residual stress over filter structure
No product guarantee for FPT engines
Higher oil consumption
Increased number of replacement due to earlier blow by filter clogging
Engine wear and increased seizing risk of turbocharger
Reduced life of ats components
