The MAN 48/60CR Lube Oil Automatic Filter is a lubricating-oil filtration component in the lube-oil system of the MAN 48/60CR marine engine. Everllence identifies the component as FIL-001, Lube oil automatic filter, an automatic back washing filter installed as a main filter.

Depending on the filter arrangement, the automatic filter may include a second filtration stage. When a two-stage automatic filter is installed, the additional lube oil duplex filter FIL-002 can be avoided.

Application Notes

Filtration of lubricating oil within the main lube-oil system of the MAN 48/60CR marine engine. Everllence identifies the component as FIL-001, Lube oil automatic filter, an automatic backwashing filter installed as a main filter. Depending on the filter arrangement, the automatic filter may include a second filtration stage. The exact filter element specification should be verified against the installed filter arrangement and applicable MAN 48/60CR documentation before replacement.

Additional Notes

The MAN 48/60CR Lube Oil Automatic Filter (FIL-001) forms part of the engine's main lube-oil filtration system. Everllence identifies FIL-001 as an automatic backwashing filter installed as a main filter. Depending on the filter arrangement, the automatic filter may include a second filtration stage. The exact filter element specification, filtration characteristics, dimensions, and manufacturer part number are not specified in the cited documentation. These details should therefore be verified against the installed filter arrangement and applicable MAN 48/60CR documentation before ordering or replacement.

The MAN 48/60CR Lube Oil Automatic Filter is identified in Everllence documentation as FIL-001, Lube oil automatic filter. It is an automatic backwashing filter installed as a main filter in the engine’s lube-oil system.

The backwashing of the filter elements must be arranged so that the lube-oil flow and pressure are not affected. The flushing discharge, consisting of an oil-sludge mixture, is led to the lube oil service tank. The oil is permanently bypass-cleaned via the suction line into a separator, providing efficient final removal of deposits.

Everllence recommends automatic lube-oil filter types with an integrated second filtration stage as a state-of-the-art arrangement. The second filtration stage protects the engine from particles that may pass the first-stage filter elements in the event of a malfunction. When a two-stage automatic filter is installed, the additional lube oil duplex filter FIL-002 can be avoided.

If no additional filter is installed downstream of the automatic filter before the engine inlet, the automatic filter must be installed as close as possible to the engine.

The exact filter-element specification, filter media, filtration characteristics, dimensions, construction and manufacturer part number are not specified in the cited documentation. These details should therefore be verified against the installed filter arrangement and applicable MAN 48/60CR documentation before ordering or replacement.
