The oil, under pressure, enters the bottom of the unit, moves up the centre core of the G2F element, before passing down through the 4-stages of micro-depth filtration. The oil is polished down to 1 micron, then discharged from the bottom of the unit, and returned to the oil reservoir. The G2F element should be changed at regular intervals, determined by the level of contamination produced by the engine and the environment it is operating in. The oil is to be changed depending upon the customers targeted oil drain interval. Oil sample analysis is recommended to maximize oil drain interval while minimizing wear.

Low pressure applications can be found in a varitey of working environments, but all are prone to external and internal contamination. With G2F's abiltiy to remove water at 99.97% from oil, the element dramatically decreases the formation of acids, diminishing the accelerated depletion of additives and corressive action within the component. On a diesel engine application, this reduction in acid formation keeps the additive package in a healthy state for much longer periods of time, keeping the Total Base Number (TBN) at a high level. By removing ultra-fine particles down to 1 micron, there is significantly less of a burden placed on the additives with less dirt to suspend, dramatically reducing mechanical wear while safely extending the oil change interval in any low pressure application.

Contaminated oil increases acid formation, particle build-up, varnish deposits, sludge deposits, acid pitting, corrosion, increased mechanical wear, accelerated viscosity breakdown, overheating, water contamination, poor oil circulation, oxidation and rapid additive depletion. G2F safeguards you against these problems.

Acid Formation - How it affects TBN levels in diesel engine oil



1. Typical Filter - The need for constant neutralization of acids formed in the engine is the major factor for TBN breakdown.
2. With Generation 2 - Generation 2's ability to constantly remove water creates a virtually acid free engine significantly reducing the breakdown of the additives, minimizing corrosive action, and dramatically reducing the need to change the oil.



Particle Build-up



3. Typical Filter - The constant build-up of fine particles held in suspension by the additives creates the need for regular oil changes.
4. With Generation 2 - The constant cleaning action prevents any particle build-up and creates a much cleaner engine, dramatically reducing oil changes and mechanical wear.

Diesel engines (and other low pressure series systems) play an important role, particularly in the primary and secondary industries including mining, construction, fishery, transportation, agriculture, forestry, oil and gas, power generation, and waste management to name a few. Some direct applications would include:

The LP-Series for low pressure applications less than 116 PSI/8 Bar. Model choice would depend upon the size of the oil pan/system capcity, rate of contamination, and the desired Filter element change interval.

Warranty

G2F provides a Limited Life time warranty to the original purchaser for defects in workmanship and materials of the Filter canister only. Warranty is not transferable. Engine hose, adapters, and reusable ends are warranted by the original manufacturer. The use of a Generation 2 Filtration system does not affect original engine manufacture warranty. As technical advancements take place, product specifications maybe subject to change. L.B.S. Lubrication Units Inc. (est. 1995) is the global distributor of Generation 2 Filtration line of products.

The oil under high pressure (up to 4,569 PSI/315 Bar) enters the inlet at the bottom of the unit, travels up into the 'Integrated Pressure Reduction Valve', moves up the centre core of the G2F element at 43.5 PSI/3 Bar, before passing down through the 4-stages of micro-depth filtration. The oil is Filtered down to 1 micron then discharged from the outlet of the unit, the polished oil is then returned to the oil reservoir at atmospheric pressure. The G2F element is to be changed at regular intervals, determined by the rate of contamination produced by the system, and the environment it is operating in. Oil analysis with a ISO particle count is recommended to monitor oil contamination levels, allowing one to meet and exceed targeted oil cleanliness levels.

Healthy Oil - No Problem

Generation 2™ elements remove water at 99.97% from oil, significantly decreasing the formation of acids, keeping the Total Acid Number (TAN) low, diminishing the accelerated depletion of additives and formation of oxidation, varnish, sludge and gum deposits within the component, dramatically extending the life of the equipment and time between oil changes.

ISO and NAS Cleanliness Codes

Internationally recognized standards are used to quantify the number and size of particles in oil. This chart illustrates both standards, the condition of a typical system, and oil cleanliness levels obtained using G2F.

Oil operating in this category will shorten the life of hydraulic components & oil, causing premature wear and continuous breakdowns.

Oil operating in this category will extend oil & component life, reducing hydraulic system breakdowns.

Fluid Cleanliness Levels

Manufactures of hydraulic systems establish fluid ISO cleanliness levels to provide maximum life extension of the component. Once cleanliness target values for any given component are exceeded, the equipment will suffer increased wear and failure rates.

Hydraulics, transmissions, and high pressure systems play a vital role in the safe and smooth operation of equipment in a variety of industries. These include manufacturing, mining, construction, fishery, transportation, agriculture, forestry, oil and gas, and waste management to name a few. Some direct applications would include:

The LP-Series for low pressure applications less than 116 PSI/8 Bar. Model choice would depend upon the size of the oil pan/system capcity, rate of contamination, and the desired Filter element change interval.
