How to maintain Cartridge oil filters- Hebei Zhengcan Filter Manufacturing Co. Ltd.

To maintain cartridge oil filters in your vehicle, you can follow these steps:

Regular Inspection: Check your oil filter regularly to ensure it is in good condition. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, dents, or leaks. If you notice any issues, it is best to replace the oil filter.

Follow Manufacturer's Recommendations: Consult your vehicle's owner manual or the manufacturer's recommendations for the recommended oil filter replacement interval. Generally, oil filters are replaced during routine oil changes, which are typically done every 3,000 to 7,500 miles or as per the manufacturer's guidelines.

Proper Installation: When installing a new cartridge oil filter, make sure it is the correct filter for your vehicle's make, model, and engine. Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer for the proper installation procedure. Ensure that the filter is tightened securely but not over-tightened.

Use High-Quality Filters: It is recommended to use high-quality cartridge oil filters from reputable manufacturers. These filters are designed to effectively remove contaminants from the oil and provide better protection for your engine.

Avoid Over-Extending Filter Life: While some cartridge oil filters claim to have extended life spans, it is generally recommended to replace the filter at regular intervals as specified by the manufacturer. Over-extending the filter's life can lead to reduced filtration efficiency and potentially harm your engine.

Proper Disposal: When removing the old cartridge oil filter, ensure that you properly dispose of it according to local regulations. Many auto parts stores and recycling centers accept used oil filters for recycling.

Monitor Oil Level and Quality: Keep an eye on your vehicle's oil level and quality. If you notice any sudden drop in oil level, unusual oil color, or contamination, it may indicate a problem with the oil filter or other engine components. Address any issues promptly to prevent potential engine damage.

1. Cartridge oil filters are mounted in sealed housings integrated with the engine. Housings usually have all the valves needed for proper filter operation in the engine oil system and the parts positioning the filter element, which guarantee its tightness in the housing.

2. Modern cartridge oil filters are manufactured without the use of metal parts. The bottom caps and cores of this type of filter are made of modern plastics. The lack of metal components is not only better for the environment but makes for easier disposal.

3. Replacing metal elements of the oil filter with plastic elements is a common trend in the filter industry. This facilitates the utilization of the filter and reduces its mass.

4. The plastics we use are thoroughly lab tested, so the quality of the cartridge oil filter product meets any strict requirements.
