OPERATION
1. the filter must work within the operating
conditions of pressure, temperature and
compatibility given in the first page of this data
sheet
2. the filter element must be replaced as soon as
the clogging indicator signals at working
temperature (in cold start conditions, oil
temperature lower than 30°C, a false alarm can
be given due to oil viscosity)
3. If no clogging indicator is mounted, replace the
element according to the system manufacturer’s
recommendations
