02250168-084 Oil Filter Element for Screw Air Compressor Lubrication Systems


Product Introduction
The 02250168-084 oil filter cartridge is a purpose-built filtration component developed for screw-type air compressor lubrication systems. Engineered to remove suspended impurities such as metal fines, degraded carbon residues, and particulate matter from circulating lubricant, this element plays an essential role in preserving oil cleanliness, minimizing friction-related wear, and extending the service interval of the compressor unit.
By maintaining consistent oil purity, the filter directly contributes to the protection of sensitive internal parts-including bearing assemblies, rotor surfaces, and sealing elements-against abrasive damage and thermal degradation. The inclusion of a factory-calibrated by-pass valve ensures that lubrication continues even under clogged conditions, providing an extra layer of operational safety without interrupting compressor function.

Main Selling Points
Superior Contaminant Removal
Provides dependable fine-grade filtration with high capture efficiency for both hard particles and soft sludge. The layered filtration architecture enables deep loading, allowing the element to hold significant contaminant volume while maintaining flow performance over an extended period.
Sturdy Build for Industrial Environments
Designed to endure challenging operating conditions, the filter features robust mechanical strength and reliable sealing that prevents bypass leakage, even during pressure fluctuations or temperature swings commonly found in continuous-duty compressor applications.
By-Pass Valve for Uninterrupted Operation
Equipped with a pre-set by-pass valve that activates automatically when differential pressure reaches the designated trigger point. This feature ensures oil continues to reach the compressor main unit, effectively preventing dry running or oil starvation that could result in costly repairs.
Low Maintenance Burden
With a long replacement interval and consistent filtration performance, this element reduces the frequency of service interventions, lowers consumable costs, and minimizes downtime for maintenance activities.
Long-Term Durability
The advanced filtration construction resists degradation from chemical attack, thermal cycling, and mechanical stress, providing stable performance throughout the entire product lifecycle.
Operating Principle
During compressor operation, the lube oil circulates through the filtration loop and passes through the 02250168-084 element. As oil flows through the filtration matrix, suspended contaminants-ranging from fine metallic dust to viscous carbonaceous deposits-are trapped and retained within the filter structure. The cleansed oil then returns to the compressor circuit, delivering fresh lubricant to bearings, rotors, and other moving surfaces.
The integrated by-pass valve serves as a backup safeguard. As contaminant loading increases, the pressure difference across the filter gradually rises. When this differential hits the factory-preset limit, the valve opens to permit oil flow around the saturated media, guaranteeing that the compressor never experiences lubrication interruption, even if the filter reaches end-of-life during operation.
Target Applications
This filter element is broadly compatible with industrial screw compressor setups across multiple sectors:
Automotive Manufacturing – Assembly line pneumatic systems
General Engineering – Machine shop air supplies
Chemical Processing – Plant instrument air and process air
Power Utilities – Auxiliary compressor units in power stations
Food & Pharmaceutical – Hygiene-critical compressed air systems
Mining & Construction – Heavy-duty portable and stationary compressors
Service Guidelines
To maximize operational benefits and filter service life:
Check system pressure differential readings at regular intervals
Schedule element replacement when the by-pass valve activation threshold is approached
Adapt maintenance frequency to site-specific conditions, especially in dusty or humid environments
Document replacement dates and operating hours to establish predictive maintenance patterns
