Replacement Cycle of Bulldozer Filter Element
Bulldozer is a kind of heavy machinery equipment widely used in engineering construction. The replacement cycle of its filter element plays a vital role in the machine's normal operation and service life. There are many filter elements for bulldozers, and the replacement cycle of each filter element is also different. In this article, the editor of Santak will give a detailed introduction to the replacement cycle of each filter element of the bulldozer to help readers better understand how to maintain and maintain the bulldozer.
1. Air filter element
The air filter element is one of the most common filter elements in the bulldozer. Its main function is to filter the air entering the machine and prevent dust, sand and other particles from entering the machine, thereby protecting the engine. The replacement cycle of the air filter element varies depending on the use environment of the machine. Generally speaking, during the operation of the bulldozer, the air filter element needs to be cleaned every 500 hours or less and generally needs to be replaced after six cleanings. If the machine works in a harsh environment, such as in a desert or a high-concentration dust environment, the cleaning and replacement cycle needs to be shortened.
2. Hydraulic oil filter
The hydraulic oil filter is another important filter type in bulldozers, which is mainly used to filter impurity particles in hydraulic oil. As the machine is used for a longer time, there will be more and more impurity particles in the hydraulic oil. If the hydraulic oil filter is not replaced in time, these impurity particles will enter the hydraulic system, causing the hydraulic system to fail. Therefore, the replacement cycle of the hydraulic oil filter is very important. It is generally recommended to replace it every 500 hours or less.
3. Fuel filter
The fuel filter is a filter used in bulldozers to filter impurity particles in the fuel. If there are too many impurity particles in the fuel, it will affect the normal operation of the engine and may even cause machine failure. Therefore, the replacement cycle of the fuel filter is also very important. The new machine should be replaced after 250 hours of operation, and it is recommended to replace it every 500 hours or less.
4. Oil-water separator
The oil-water separator is a device used to separate diesel and water in the engine. Due to the different densities of diesel and water, the oil-water separator can separate diesel and water, thereby preventing water from entering the engine. The replacement cycle of the oil-water separator varies depending on the machine's use environment and frequency of use. It is generally recommended to replace it every 500 hours or less.
5. Air conditioning filter
The air conditioning filter is a filter used to filter the air in the air conditioning system. Since bulldozers often work in dusty and polluted environments, the air conditioning filter is easily covered with dust and dirt, causing the air conditioning system to fail. Therefore, it is very important to replace the air conditioning filter in time. It is generally recommended to replace it every 500 hours or less.
6. Water tank filter
The water tank filter is a filter used to filter foreign particles in the bulldozer water tank. If there are too many foreign particles in the water tank, it will affect the cooling system, causing the machine temperature to be too high, thereby affecting the normal operation of the machine. Therefore, the replacement cycle of the water tank filter is also very important. It is generally recommended to replace it every 500 hours or less.
During the filter replacement process, the following points should be noted:
1. Before replacing the filter, the bulldozer must be stopped and the engine turned off.
2. During the filter replacement process, the pressure of the machine must be released to avoid accidents.
3. After replacing the filter, it is necessary to check the sealing performance and ensure that the filter is installed correctly.
4. After replacing the filter, the pressure of the machine must be gradually restored to avoid problems such as hydraulic system failure.
In conclusion, the filter replacement cycle of the bulldozer is one of the important links in the maintenance of the bulldozer. The replacement cycle of each filter is different and needs to be determined according to the actual situation. During the filter replacement process, it is necessary to pay attention to safety and ensure that the replaced filter can be installed correctly and play a normal role, so as to ensure the normal operation of the bulldozer.
