Structured Design Engine Oil Filter Applicable To Land Rover
Discovery Sport Series Models
The engine oil filter in a passenger car is a core filtering
component that ensures the normal operation of the engine. Its core
function is to filter impurities, metal debris, carbon deposits,
and other pollutants from the oil, preventing wear of precision
components within the engine (such as pistons, crankshafts, and
bearings), while maintaining the lubrication, cooling, and sealing
properties of the oil. Its main features can be expanded from the
dimensions of filtering performance, structural design,
adaptability, and durability, as follows:
1. Core function: high-precision filtration, engine protection
Filtration accuracy adapted to engine requirements:
Filtration accuracy is typically measured in microns (μm).
Mainstream passenger car oil filters typically have a filtration
accuracy of 10-30μm (some high-end filters can reach 5-10μm).
It effectively traps impurities in the oil, such as metal debris
(such as iron and aluminum shavings) generated by engine wear,
carbon particles from combustion, and airborne dust. If these
impurities are not filtered out, they can scratch cylinder walls
and wear bearings as the oil circulates, leading to reduced engine
sealing, increased fuel consumption, and even cylinder scuffing.
It also preserves beneficial additives in the oil (such as
anti-wear agents and antioxidants), preventing over-filtration from
degrading oil performance.
2. Structural design: Adapting to engine layout, taking into
account both sealing and easy maintenance
Easy-to-install and disassemble design reduces maintenance costs:
Mainstream products utilize a threaded or snap-on mounting system,
allowing for manual removal with a dedicated wrench, eliminating
the need for complex tools. This meets the regular maintenance
requirements of passenger vehicles (e.g., replacement every
5,000-10,000 km) and enhances serviceability.
3. Material characteristics: heat and oil resistant, ensuring
long-term reliability
Housing: Pressure-Resistant and Rust-Resistant Metal/High-Strength
Plastic:
Traditional filter housings are mostly made of cold-rolled steel
(galvanized or spray-coated). They offer strong pressure resistance
(capable of withstanding 8-15 bar oil pressure, preventing breakage
under high pressure) and are rust- and corrosion-resistant.
Some lightweight models utilize high-strength engineering plastic
housings (such as PA66 + fiberglass), which are lighter (in line
with overall vehicle lightweighting trends) while maintaining
comparable pressure and temperature resistance.
