Filtration Performance
-
Filter media: High-strength composite material (cellulose + synthetic fiber), balancing high dirt-holding capacity and stable oil flow
-
Filtration efficiency: ≥99% efficiency in capturing critical-size contaminants, effectively removing metal debris, carbon deposits, and dust particles from engine oil
-
Operating pressure: Engineered to withstand high system pressures in heavy-duty conditions, preventing leakage or filter collapse
-
Built-in bypass valve: Activates automatically if the filter becomes clogged, ensuring continuous oil flow to avoid engine starvation and wear
-
Genuine Quality Assurance: As an MTU ValueCare genuine spare part, this filter is purpose-built for MTU Series 4000 engines. Its filtration accuracy, pressure resistance, and flow characteristics fully meet MTU's original specifications, providing maximum protection for critical engine components.
-
Core Functions:
-
Remove contaminants from engine oil to reduce wear on pistons, crankshafts, bearings, and other moving parts
-
Extend oil service life by maintaining its lubricating, cooling, and cleaning properties
-
Ensure stable engine operation under high-load, high-RPM conditions, reducing the risk of unexpected failures
-
-
Typical Applications: MTU-powered generator sets, marine main/auxiliary engines, mining haul trucks, and heavy construction equipment – making it a critical consumable for routine engine maintenance.

-
Key Advantages:
-
Made in Poland under strict MTU quality control, with 100% compatibility with target engines
-
High-flow, high-dirt-holding design tailored to the large-displacement lubrication systems of Series 4000 engines
-
Excellent sealing performance to prevent leaks and unfiltered oil bypass
-
-
Usage Recommendations:
-
Replace according to MTU engine maintenance schedules, typically every 500–1000 operating hours (adjust based on actual operating conditions)
-
Inspect the sealing ring during replacement; lightly coat the gasket with clean engine oil before installation to ensure a leak-free seal
-
Use only genuine MTU or MTU-certified filters to avoid risks of inadequate filtration or oil blockage caused by inferior alternatives.
