CHALLENGER FAA-PMA LIFETIME OIL FILTER SYSTEM
The filter element is made from medical grade, type 304 stainless steel micronic filter cloth providing unmatched protection against oil contamination and resultant engine damage.
A rare earth magnet is installed in the top of the element for magnetic pre-filtering of the oil. The unique twist lock design allows for easy disassembly, inspection and cleaning. The quad-ring gasket doubles the seal between the filter and the engine . The filter housing is carved out of a solid piece of 6061 T6 billet aluminum with cooling fins which aids in dissipating heat.
Q: Will your cleanable oil filter fit my aircraft?
A: Challenger cleanable oil filters are an exact fit for most aircraft piston engines. No special tools required. Please check application guide on our web site www.challengeraviation.com Click on the oil filter link.
Q: Is it necessary to clean the Challenger oil filters at every oil change?
A: Yes. The primary purpose of the oil filter is to remove contaminants, oil sludge and other combustive particles.
Q: Will oil temperature affect oil pressure?
A: Yes. The thickness or viscosity of oil is directly affected by temperature. As the engine oil temperature increases there will be a proportional drop in oil pressure.
Q: How does water in my oil react with your cleanable oil filter?
A: Unlike paper disposable filters that are destroyed by water secretion, Challenger's oil filter use stainless steel mesh that is not affected by moisture.
Q: Should I change my oil and oil filter when the oil turns black?
A: Ashless dispersant oils are designed to get dirty so that the engine stays clean. Just how fast the oil turns black depends on many factors including condition of the engine, dirt load of oil filter, oil temperature, normal air mixture, type of fuel and frequency and duration of your flights. Change your oil filter on a calendar or engine time, not according to its color.
Q: How will increased oil flow affect my engine?
A: Increased oil flow reduces friction and removes more dirt and sludge that may be trapped inside the engine or engine sump. This is particularly important for engines that run hot, like turbo charged and high performance or aerobatic aircraft.
