7.1.3 Longlife separator (pos. ƒ )
Figure 13: Longlife separator: Arrow must point in the direction of flow
The Longlife separator distinguishes itself through its high-performance self-cleaning action and must
therefore only be cleaned when visibly and seriously clogged or dirty.
Cleaning: self-cleaning.
If, despite its self-cleaning action, the Longlife separator should nonetheless become extremely dirty
or clogged, i.e. full of oil and emulsion residues, hardened oil, the entire separator can be cleaned
using warm water and a grease-removing cleaning agent.
The Longlife separator must not be opened or disassembled.
It is vital that the separator be installed in accordance with the air flow direction arrows on the
separator’s frame. Otherwise the device will no longer function properly.
If necessary, the writing on the Longlife separator can be arranged upside down relative to the
airflow direction and the installation position.
Damaged Longlife separators must be replaced immediately.
Improperly installed or damaged Longlife separators will cause diminished or unsatisfactory
separation performance. Under those conditions, the device will no longer function properly.
Parts will have oil and coolant lubricant residue. Wastewater must be disposed of properly and in an
ecologically responsible manner.
