System Module - Lubrication
Learning Objective
At the end of this section of the module you will be able to describe
the operation of the Lubrication System and trace the oil flow path.
Agenda
• The Oil System.
• Lubrication System Schematic.
• Main Oil System Components.
• Oil Flow Path.

Lubrication System Features
 Oil Pan
- Two separate pickup tubes & single strainer for engine
driven oil pump (required to suit flow / size limitation).
 Filter Head
- Houses 4 spin on filters .
- Incorporates differential pressure by-pass valve.
 Oil Pump
- Sump mounted.
- Integral pressure regulator.
NOTE: QSK 60 Gas Engines do NOT have any Oil Thermostats

fitted, oil cooler continuously supplied prior to filtering.

Oil Filters
• Spin on type for ease of service.
•Combined Full Flow and By-Pass Filter
( Venturi-Combo filter).
• 85-90 % to ‘StrataPore’ synthetic media.
- 28/30 micron ‘absolute’ rating. (98% efficiency)
• Plus 10-15% to stacked disc by-pass section.

- 7 micron ‘absolute’ rating. (98% efficiency)
• Always Check replacement part number.
- Cummins Part #: 4016657
- Fleetguard Part #: LF 9024.
• Filter should be filled with engine oil before installation.

Typical Full Flow
and Bypass
Filtration System
Venturi Combo - What are the
Advantages?
 Simplify Plumbing
– Remove the need for separate bypass circuit
 Remove parasitic loss of fluid to sump
– Improves fuel consumption since 10% of the fluid is
not returning to Sump.
 Allows Combo type filter to replace existing Full Flow
filter.
– Achieve Finer Filtration with Bypass Media
– Achieve Increased Filter Life with Bypass Media
– Improved Organic Capacity

QSK
– Venturi Combination
Filtration System
Venturi Combo
What does it do ?
Generates flow through the highly restrictive bypass media.
Reduces the required filter restriction.
How does it do it ?
The flow through full flow element is restricted by the
nozzle throat, forcing more flow through the bypass section.
A low pressure zone created in the throat of the nozzle,
generates a suction on the outlet of bypass media, pulling
more flow through the bypass section.
The nozzle diffuser reduces the fluid velocity, recovering a
portion of the energy lost in the throat. This effectively
reduces the total restriction of the filter.

Venturi Combo Design
Single outlet to engine

Single Inlet / Single Outlet design
>10% of Flow
<90% of Flow
Single Inlet
Nozzle throat restricts flow from full flow media From Pump
forcing more through stacked disc media.
Then the diffuser of the nozzle reduces velocity, reducing the effective total filter restriction.
