224-3405: Oil Pump Bypass Valve

The Bypass Valve is typically located within the Oil Base Filter unit. It is typically a spring-loaded valve that is held closed by the pressure of the oil flowing through the filter element. It is typically set to open at a pressure that is higher than normal operating pressure, which ensures that it only opens when the filter is severely clogged or blocked. Attributes: • Provides good wear resistance and strength. • Helps to maintain the proper oil flow. Applications: The Bypass Valve helps to ensure that the engine is still protected from damage even in the event of a filter failure.
