FOOLPROOF EFFICIENCY—NO ELEMENTS TO REPLACE Until now, to users of road vehicles and stationary engines, an oil filter has always meant an oil strainer. Centrifugal separation, thatigh its efficiency was known, has never been generally available to the engine building industry. Now it is here, in the form of a compact, self operating component. And the advantages now offered by the Glacier Centrifugal Oil Filter are so many that they cannot be ignored.

THE GLACIER CENTRIFUGAL WORKS

many another technical advance, the is basically simple. In place of filter-and elements, the Glacier harnesses rifugal force (at a thousand times the 3 of gravity) to do the job better. Look is sectional diagram, and you will see the oil itself drives a rotor which flings dirt to the sides of the bowl, while the n oil flows unchecked through the hole le base.

. TEST OF EFFICIENCY

simple to work ? The proof lies is king efficiency. The Glacier Centrifugal Filter has been submitted to exhaustive ,s and cannot be faulted. If oil is cleaned }assing through a filter medium on the iciple of a strainer, efficiency at best is ,tive : the Glacier Centrifugal intercepts icles that will pass through the mesh of finest strainers in use. Many strainers, 7eover, progressively lose efficiency as y become clogged with the dirt they are trapping until the ever more restricted oilflow and loss of pressure bring a by-pass valve into play which feeds dirty oil to the bearings. The Glacier Centrifugal Oil Filter maintains high efficiency and constant flow.

THE TEST OF Z.s.d.

With filters of the strainer type, the relatively frequent cleaning or replacement of the strainer element is imperative. A fleet of vehicles can run up a pretty bill in a year on new elements alone. There is nothing to replace in a Glacier Filter. There are no running costs. Inspection and cleaning can be carried out in five minutes. The filter component, as you buy it, should last the life of the engine without any trouble or replacement of parts.
