Another Revolutionary Step for AMSOIL...
Continuing on
the path to revolutionize the filtration market,
AMSOIL is introducing the new Ea Oil Filter line. Ea
Oil Filters feature advanced full synthetic nanofiber
technology, making them the highest efficiency filters
that are available for the auto/light truck
market.
Advanced Media
Technology
Cellulose and blended medias found in most oil
filters have larger fibers than the synthetic
nanofibers found in the EaO Filters. They also have
larger spaces between their fibers. This causes
contaminants to load in the depth of the media and
plug the oil-flow path, resulting in higher
restriction and less capacity.
The smaller fibers in synthetic media
also have a controlled size and shape. This results in
greater efficiency and capacity than cellulose
filters, as well as better durability. AMSOIL Ea Oil
Filters provide a higher level of engine protection,
as well as extended filter change intervals.
Oil Filtration
Basics
Clean oil is vital to engine performance and
durability. Oil must lubricate, cool and clean the
engine as it circulates. In order to remain effective
it must be filtered as it cycles.
The filter is connected to the engine
sump, which contains the oil pump. Full-flow filters
pass all the oil output from the pump through the
filter.
The function of the oil filter is to
remove the contaminants introduced into the
lubricating oil and prevent them from reaching
sensitive engine parts without restricting normal oil
flow to the various points requiring lubrication.
Internal sources of contamination include wear
products from the rubbing surfaces of the engine,
blow-by gases leaking past the rings of the pistons
and degradation of the oil itself. A filter must
perform well in the areas of efficiency, capacity,
flow and life.
Absolute
Efficiency
Efficiency is the filter’s ability to capture
contaminants. The more efficient a filter is, the more
contaminants it will remove from the oil. To make a
filter more efficient the spaces between the fibers in
the media are made smaller, creating more resistance
and limiting the oil’s ability to flow through
the filter. Achieving maximum efficiency along with
limited resistance is critical to good
filtration.
Extensive testing shows that AMSOIL Ea
Oil Filters achieve a near-perfect absolute efficiency
rating. The exclusive new technology used in AMSOIL
EaO Filters provides filtering efficiency to 98.7
percent at 15 microns. EaO Filters are the most
efficient filters that are available for auto/light
trucks.
Maximum Capacity
Capacity is the amount of contaminants a filter can
hold and still remain effective. When a filter reaches
maximum capacity the oil continues to flow through
unfiltered, leaving harmful contaminants circulating
in the oil. When a filter reaches maximum capacity it
also reaches the end of its life and must be
changed.
AMSOIL EaO Filters have a far greater
capacity than competing filter lines. When used in
conjunction with AMSOIL synthetic motor oils in normal
service, EaO Filters are guaranteed to remain
effective for 25,000 miles or one year, whichever
comes first.
Durable
Construction
AMSOIL Ea Oil Filters are made with premium-grade
full synthetic media. The strictly controlled
processing of this media ensures accurate fiber
construction and allows Ea Oil Filters to deliver
higher capacity and efficiency, along with better
durability.
Over the service life of a cellulose
filter, hot oil will degrade the resins that bind the
media. EaO Filters’ full synthetic media
technology uses a wire screen backing that is pleated
with the media for superior strength.
Ea Oil Filters are constructed with
HNBR nitrile gaskets that are fully tested to extreme
distances in numerous severe environments. The filters
also feature fully tucked seams, a molded element
seal, roll-formed threads and a long-lasting
premium-grade silicone anti-drain valve.
Imroved Flow
Proper oil flow is essential to keep moving parts
lubricated at all times. A filter without adequate
flow properties can cause catastrophic engine
failure.
Flow is restricted as the spacing in
the filter media is made smaller to provide greater
efficiency. The synthetic nanofibers in AMSOIL Ea Oil
Filters allow maximum efficiency without restricting
flow. This provides unsurpassed cold-start performance
and ensures proper levels of lubrication throughout
the engine.
Extended Service Intervals
AMSOIL EaO Filters are guaranteed for 25,000 miles or
one year, whichever comes first, when used in
conjunction with AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oil in
gasoline and diesel vehicles in normal service. They
are guaranteed for 15,000 miles for severe service.
This coincides with the AMSOIL 25,000-mile/one year
motor oil drain interval, adding even more convenience
for motorists by consolidating routine maintenance.
EaO Filters are recommended for use up to two times
longer than OEM recommendations for commercial units,
fleets and RVs using diesel fueled engines, not to
exceed 60,000 miles for heavy-duty on-highway diesel
applications.
