How it Works
When your Palatek compressor system is compressing air, oil is transferred from the sump tank to the air end to lubricate the bearings. An oil filter offers a critical barrier of protection from contamination by foreign particles that have gotten past your air filter and into the sump tank.
Design
ACS Palatek brand 00520-017 filter is constructed with the top quality raw materials to withstand burst pressure ratings defined by Palatek. Spin-on oil filter elements are installed by quickly spinning off and then replacing the current filter element on your Palatek compressor. Our Palatek 00520-017 Replacement oil filters are manufactured of synthetic, paper, metal, mesh, or cloth with a micron rating matching Palatek's specifications. We are so confident in our product that we offer an industry-best manufacturer's warranty for the designed life of the filter.
Importance
The correct selection and use of filters will prevent long-term problems with your Palatek air compressor system and save you a lot in downtime and compressor system component replacement costs over the life of your Palatek compressor system. Other oil filters are not designed to withstand the extreme pressure environment of your Palatek system. Using other filters without the burst pressure ratings recommended by Palatek can result in total failure of the oil filters and ultimately your compressed air system.
