The Wärtsilä 50DF Lube Oil Automatic Filter Element (insert filter) is the insert filter specified for use in the bypass line of the automatic filter (2F02) in the external lubricating-oil system of Wärtsilä 50DF engines. It is described in Section 7.3.10 of the Wärtsilä 50DF Product Guide, while Fig. 7-3 (DAAE021746B) identifies 2F02 as the “Automatic filter”. Wärtsilä specifies a fineness of 35 µm (absolute mesh size) for the insert filter, matching the specified fineness of the automatic filter itself.

Application Notes

The insert filter is specified for use in the bypass line of the automatic filter (2F02) in the Wärtsilä 50DF external lubricating-oil system, as described in Section 7.3.10 of the Product Guide. Wärtsilä specifies a fineness of 35 µm (absolute mesh size) for the insert filter and a design pressure of 1.0 MPa (10 bar). The maximum permitted pressure drop at 50 cSt is 30 kPa (clean) and 60 kPa (alarm).

Additional Notes

The automatic filter (2F02) in the Wärtsilä 50DF external lubricating-oil system is commonly equipped with an integrated safety filter; however, some automatic filter types — particularly those designed for high flows — may not have a built-in safety filter, in which case a separate safety filter (2F05) must be installed before the engine. No OEM part number or filter media is specified for the insert filter in the reviewed Wärtsilä documentation.
