Alternative BLAT Type Filter Inserts
FiltraMate BLAT Series Filter Inserts are designed as direct replacements for Original CJC BLAT Filter Inserts used in PTU oil filter separator systems.
Manufactured from premium natural cellulose fibers, our alternative BLAT Series combines fine particle filtration with continuous water separation, making it an ideal solution for turbine oils, hydraulic oils, gear oils, lubricating oils, and diesel fuels.
Unlike conventional absorbent filter elements, the BLAT design allows separated water to pass through to the separator section without causing an increase in differential pressure, ensuring stable long-term operation.
Key Features
4-in-1 Contamination Control
FM BLAT Filter Inserts remove four major contamination types simultaneously:
1. Solid Particles
3 μm absolute filtration efficiency
Over 98.7% removal of particles larger than 3 μm
Improved oil cleanliness levels
Reduced component wear
2. Water Removal
The BLAT Series is specifically designed for continuous water separation from oils with good demulsibility.
Benefits include:
Removes free water from lubricating oils
Stable pressure drop during operation
Prevents corrosion and micro-pitting
Reduces sludge formation
Extends oil service life
3. Varnish & Oil Degradation Products
The cellulose depth media effectively captures:
Varnish
Oxidation products
Resin
Sludge deposits
This helps prevent:
Sticky control valves
Surface lacquering
Bearing failures
Reduced lubrication performance
4. Acidity (TAN) Stabilization
The filter media absorbs acidic degradation products, helping to:
Slow oil ageing
Lower Total Acid Number (TAN)
Reduce equipment wear
Extend lubricant life
Advanced Cellulose Depth Filtration Technology
Our BLAT Filter Inserts consist of bonded cellulose discs made from 100% natural cellulose fibers.
Features include:
Deep-layer filtration structure
Large effective filtration area
High dirt holding capacity
No plastic components
No metal reinforcement
Environmentally friendly materials
The depth filtration mechanism combines absorption and adsorption processes, enabling efficient removal of both solid and soft contaminants.
Continuous Water Separation Performance
Unlike conventional cellulose filter elements that become saturated and cause pressure increases, FM BLAT Filter Inserts are engineered to allow separated water to pass through to the separator element.
Advantages include:
✓ Continuous water removal
✓ Stable operating pressure
✓ Longer filter life
✓ Reduced maintenance requirements
✓ Reliable operation in high-humidity environments
This makes the BLAT Series particularly suitable for turbine and lubrication systems where water contamination is a major concern.
Contamination Holding Capacity
Actual dirt holding capacity depends on operating conditions, particle characteristics, and contamination levels.
Typical capacity for BLAT 27/27:
| Contaminant Type | Capacity |
|---|---|
| Solid Particles | Up to 4 kg |
| Varnish & Oxidation Products | Up to 4 kg |
The high-capacity cellulose media enables extended service intervals and lower operating costs.
