After many years of
designing and testing racing
oil systems and related
components, we've collected a
great deal of information to
determine what's most
important to oil filtration.
Our conclusion was Total
Filtration Time!
Many
filter manufacturers stress
the importance of filtering
some of the smallest
particles known to man out of
your engine's oil. You've
probably seen or heard them
talk about "micron ratings"
of 10 or less when talking
about a filter's efficiency.
(One micron is one-millionth
of a meter and a "micron
rating" of 10 means that the
filter will remove particles
as small as 10 millionths of
a meter.)
Moroso
engineers have determined,
with the help of research
performed by filtration
technology experts, that
particles smaller than 20
microns in diameter are not
large enough to produce
engine wear. Furthermore,
Moroso engineers have also
found thatfilters with
extremely low micron ratings
create an excessive pressure
drop across the filter. They
can be so restrictive that
the filter by-pass valve can
open. And with the by-pass
valve open, NO FILTRATION
occurs, and you have no way
of knowing!
To
maximise filter performance,
Moroso Oil Filters have a
rating of 27 microns, which
produces a maximum initial
restriction of only 2.5 psi
when tested to SAE j806! The
result is less pressure drop,
more flow, less oil by-pass
and maximum filtration
performance that's so
important in severe racing
conditions.
