MANN+HUMMEL Centrifugal Oil Cleaners High Performance Bypass Oil Filtration

MANN+HUMMEL centrifuges

clean oil by generating centri-

fugal force 2,000 times grea-

ter than gravity. It is this force

that separates solid conta-

minant from the oil. This tech-

nology has been proven to

remove contaminant down to

a sub-micron size, which is

advantageous to both engine

producers and users:

The Benefits:

• Cleaner oil

• Extension of oil life

• Lengthens service intervals

• Reduces engine wear

• Enhances long-term pre-

ventative maintenance

• Reduces maintenance costs

• Cuts waste disposal costs

• Reduces application down

time

• Maximises in-service time

for vehicle/engines/machine

• Reduces total cost of

ownership

• Helps ensure clean com-

bustion and fuel efficiency

• Supports engine technolo-

gy for the reduction of

exhaust emissions (e.g.

exhaust gas recirculation)

• Fast return on investment

MANN+HUMMEL centrifugal

oil cleaners are internationally

recognised in providing

superior bypass filtration for

the removal of contaminant

from the lubricating oil of Die-

sel engines. The technology

can also be successfully used

for gearboxes, hydraulics and

other industrial fluids.

MANN+HUMMEL provide its

centrifuge technology to the

following market sectors:

• Trucks

• Buses

• Marine

• Power Generation

• Mining Machinery

• Locomotives

• Construction

• Agriculture

• Military

• Industrial Fluids

MANN+HUMMEL Centrifugal Oil Cleaners – the ingenious solution for many applications

The Importance of Clean Oil

technologies such as exhaust

gas recirculation have been

shown to increase the level

of contaminant, especially

soot in the lubricating oil.

The net effect is modern oils

are being required to work

harder, last longer and con-

tain higher levels of contami-

nation. Therefore, advances

in oil chemistry and filtration

technology are essential to

meet these needs.

Oil is the life-blood of the

engine and clean oil is

essential if an engine is to

operate efficiently throughout

its working life. In response

to environmental legislation

and customer requirements

engine manufacturers are

adapting their designs to

reduce harmful exhaust

emissions and at the same

time extend oil drain inter-

vals. Emission reduction

The result concluded that the

MANN+HUMMEL centrifuge

controlled total contamination

levels within the lube oil at a

level below the engine ma-

nufacturers condemnation

limit for more than double

the standard drain interval.

Soot particles are sub-micron

in size. Soot is a hard pro-

wear particle. High soot

levels within a lubricating

oil have been shown to be

responsible for accelerated

wear of critical engine com-

ponents. Traditional full flow

and by-pass filters are unable

to remove soot contaminant

as it is too small to be captu-

red by the media.

MANN+HUMMEL bypass

centrifugal oil cleaners are

proven to be effective at

removing soot.

Full flow filters are designed

to process all the oil used to

lubricate the moving parts of

the engine. However, the

need to maintain a high flow

and limit pressure drop

across the filtration media

restricts the ability to filter

out sub-micron particles.

This job is taken over by the

centrifugal oil cleaner in the

bypass. The MANN+HUMMEL

centrifugal oil cleaner proces-

ses approximately 10 % of

the oil flow provided by the

engine pump before returning

it directly to the engine sump.

Centrifugal Oil Cleaners – Principle of operation

Working principle

Oil is pumped into the centri-

fuge at engine pressure and

directed into a hollow spindle

where it exits via a cross

drilling into the centrifuge

rotor. The rotor becomes full

of pressured oil that is then

allowed to exit through two

tangentially opposed nozzles

in the rotor base. This causes

rotation of the free spinning

rotor assembly thus genera-

ting the centrifugal force

within the rotor. As contami-

nant particles enter the rotor

they are subjected to a cen-

trifugal force causing them to

migrate radially outwards to

the inner surface of the rotor

wall where, over time they

compact to form a dense

cake. MANN+HUMMEL offer

both cleanable and disposa-

ble rotor designs.

To engine components

The removal of particles by

centrifugal force is based

on their relative density and

therefore there is no restric-

tion on contaminant size.

MANN+HUMMEL cleanable

and disposable metal centri-

fuges contain patented

Swept Rib Technology in the

rotor cover. These ribs are

used to displace the conta-

minated fluid from the rotor

core to the outer edge where

the contaminants are acted

upon by higher centrifugal

forces, hence aiding cleaning

efficiency. Competitor centri-

fuges use inserts inside of

the rotor in an attempt to

achieve the same result.

Centrifugal Oil Cleaners – Principle of operation

Extensive comparative

testing of various insert de-

signs has shown there to be

no noticeable advances in

cleaning efficiency for the

removal of sub-micron soot

coupled with a greatly redu-

ced contaminant holding

capacity.

MANN+HUMMEL Swept Rib Technology

MANN+HUMMEL were the

first to introduce to market a

centrifugal oil cleaner with a

100 % metal free rotor. The

MANN+HUMMEL plastic

rotor is fully combustible and

can be incinerated at dis-

posal. This design contains

patented Internal rib techno-

logy throughout its complete

length. Internal rib plastic

rotors ensure that all of the

oil and hence the contami-

nant is rotating at the same

speed as the rotor. As with

the swept rib design, internal

rib technology also helps

displace the oil and contami-

nant from the rotor core to

the outer edge. These two

effects provide an even

greater cleaning efficiency

without compromising conta-

minant holding capacity.

For retrofit applications where

direct engine mounting of the

centrifuge is difficult,

MANN+HUMMEL offer remo-

tely mounted designs which

use air pressure to assist

the clean oil to return to the

sump. This option is suitable

only for applications where a

supply of compressed air is

available.

11

The centrifuge should be

mounted at an angle of no

more than 10 degrees from

the vertical. Temporary

increases in tilt angle due

to vehicle operation are not

important. For OEM applicati-

ons where tilt performance is

essential MANN+HUMMEL

will design the centrifuge

arrangement to meet the

required specification.

A MANN+HUMMEL centrifu-

ge can be designed onto an

engine as original equipment

or retrofitted to an existing

engine by the end user. The

by-pass centrifuge requires a

supply of pressurised oil. In

the majority of applications

the oil supply is obtained at

engine pressure via the lube

oil pump. In cases where oil

pressure is insufficient a

slave pump can be installed.

Installation

by the centrifuge in bypass,

in order not to starve the full

flow lubrication of engine

components. In the majority

of cases engine oil pumps

have sufficient excess oil

capacity to support a bypass

with a correctly sized centrifu-

gal oil cleaner. Please consult

with MANN+HUMMEL or your

local distributor for centrifuge

selection and installation

advice.

Oil leaving the centrifuge

needs to be able to fall back

to the engine’s oil sump

under gravity. It is therefore

important that the drain is

free from restrictions and that

the return is of the correct

diameter and above the oil

level within the sump.

When specifying a centrifuge

for an application it is vital to

ensure the oil system can

support the extra flow taken
