FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
2.3 APPLICATIONS
The application for this type of filter is for full-flow filtering of lubricating
oils for diesel engines.
The filter is installed in the full-flow lube oil system as close to the
engine as possible. Its function is to protect the engine against harmful
solid particles, that may not yet have been removed by the centrifugal
separator, which is installed in the by-pass lube oil system.
3XX-003
Note that the flow through the full-flow system (and the filter) is
typically 50 - 100 times greater than the flow through the by-pass
system (and the separator).

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
1809023-20 FD04e53.fm 11
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
2.5.1 Overview
The main principle of operation for the Moatti automatic lube oil filter is
as follows:
• The oil to be filtered is pumped from the lube oil sump through the
filter and to the engine.
• When the oil reaches the filter it first passes through a strainer
located in the inlet body. This should remove any large foreign
matter like pieces of rag which may be left in the system after
maintenance.
• Once past the strainer the oil then passes through the full-flow
filter elements (where the solids are trapped) and to the engine. A
part of the filtered oil (3 % to 5 % of the capacity of the filter) is
used to backflush part of the full-flow filter elements and for drive
of the hydraulic motor.
• The backflushed oil with solids from the full-flow chamber is led to
the lube oil sump.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
2. The oil is distributed from this space through the full-flow filter
elements (D) in eleven of the twelve filtering columns (the twelfth
column is being backflushed). The solids are trapped on the inner
side of the elements in the eleven filtering columns.

3. The filtered oil flows into the full-flow chamber (E) and is fed
through the filter outlet (F) to the engine.
4. A few hundred litres per hour of the filtered oil are routed from the
full-flow chamber (E) through the feed pipe (G) to the hydraulic
motor (H) to drive the distributor (C).

2.7 PRESSURE DROP INDICATOR
The inlet pressure P1 is taken before the strainer (2) and the outlet
pressure P2 is taken “after” the full-flow elements in the filter body (2).
Both monitoring points are fitted with isolator cocks and pipework to
connect them to the pressure drop indicator.
The pressure drop indicator shows the pressure drop 'P (P1 - P2)
across the full-flow elements. Due to the continuous backflushing, 'P
is constant during operation. It may vary from 0.2 to 0.5 bar depending
on the installation and filter size.
If for any reason the filter starts to clog, the pressure drop will
increase. To prevent the filter becoming completely clogged the
pressure drop indicator is equipped with a preset alarm value ('P-
alarm). This value generally ranges from 0.8 to 1.0 bar and is set at
the factory.

• Engine at standstill (pre-lubrication): 10 minutes maximum
• Working engine: 5 minutes maximum

3. Check the pressure drop on the pressure drop indicator and read
off the value. Under normal operating conditions the value should
not exceed 0.4 - 0.5 bar. If the value is higher see chapter 4.
4. Check for any external oil leaks. If there is an oil leakage, tighten
the bolts or change the gaskets as necessary, see also chapter 4.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
4.1 GENERAL
This chapter deals with the most common problems
when the filter does not work correctly or when the
'P- alarm occurs. It will give the possible reasons for
the problems and actions to solve them.
1809023-20 TT01e53.fm 23
TROUBLE SHOOTING
CAUSE ACTION
1. Valves V1, V2 and/or V3 are closed. Open the valves slowly and completely (V2
before V1). Pay special attention to valve V3
in the “return to sump” line because its
location may not be near the filter.
2. Lube oil temperature too low. Wait and see because the temperature will
probably increase. If it does not, check the
lube oil cooling system.
3. Lube oil pressure too low. Probably the engine is by-passed or only a
small pre-lube oil pump is in operation.
If so, connect the engine and main pump.
4. The hydraulic motor is not working properly (i) Manually turn the operating
indicator (53).

INSTALLATION
6.1 GENERAL
The Moatti automatic lube oil filter should be installed in the lube oil
system in accordance with good working practices. Pay attention to
the recommendations and only use specified materials.
! CAUTION:
! CAUTION:
1809023-20 IN01e53.fm 73
INSTALLATION
Specification
The filter should be installed in the main lube oil system in accordance
with the diagram below.
1AB-027
E = Cooler
Recommendation
It is recommended that the filter is installed after the lube oil cooler
within the main lube oil system. This means that sudden pressure
increases from the starting of the stand-by lube oil pump will be
"damped" in the cooler eliminating possible filter problems.
74 1809023-30 IN02E53.FM
INSTALLATION
The filter must be installed vertically so that the filtering unit can be
removed easily.
