Dual-Gard
By-Pass Oil Filtration System
The AMSOIL Dual-Gard By-Pass
Oil Filtration System links two AMSOIL By-Pass Filter
Elements together for engines with sump capacities
over 20 quarts. Allows fast and simple servicing with
spin-on elements.
Wear tests have shown particles of
contamination in the sub-20-micron range are most
harmful to rings and bearings. Most trucks are sold
with a full-flow filter as their only oil cleansing
unit. A study by the Milwaukee School of Engineering
determined the filtering efficiency of four top selling
full-flow filters compared with a BE-90 AMSOIL Spin-On
By-Pass Filter. The graph above shows the By-Pass
functioning at 97.6% efficiency in removing particles
as small as 3 microns, a feat no full-flow filter
can match.
Versatility:
Accommodates any two AMSOIL
Spin-On By-Pass Filter Elements. Their unique internal
flow director and follower spring system provide a
nonchanneling filter media.
Convenience:
Elements spin on and off for fast, neat filter changes.
Protection:
The stacked disc type by-pass
filter has been shown to reduce piston ring and rod/main
bearing wear 75% to 91% (Society of Automotive Engineers
paper 881826).
By-Pass Safety:
A metering orifice inside
the mount controls oil flow so that it never draws
more than 10% of the oil pump's capacity. At an engine
speed of 45 mph, the AMSOIL DUAL-GARD By-Pass Filter
cleans all of the oil in the system every 5-10 minutes
(depending on engine RPM, sump size, and oil pump
ratio).

The DUAL-GARD Mounting
Kit:
The BMK-12 contains a mount, mounting
hardward, a restriction fitting, and two 3/4"
- 16 to 1/4" J.I.C. fittings. Complete installation
instructions are included along with an additional
parts list of plumbing hose and fittings available
from seperately from AMSOIL. Spin-on filter elements,
available in three sizes, should be purchased seperately
in pairs based on sump size or available room in the
engine compartment. The following is merely a guide,
since the large the element used, the less frequently
it will need to be changed.
- For a crankcase sump of 15 to 18
quarts use 2 BE-90 filter elements.
- For a crankcase sump of 15 to
30 quarts use 2 BE-100 filter elements.
- For a crankcase sump of 15 to 42
quarts use 2 BE-110 filter elements
Your AMSOIL By-Pass Filters will last
twice as long as your regular engine filter, so change
them half as often.

a. Filters can be
used on sumps of larger capacity but then require
more frequent replacement. Full details on service
life included with filter installation instructions
b. Data determined
in a non-turbo gasoline engine with AMSOIL 100% Synthetic
Motor Oil and AMSOIL Full-Flow Oil Filter. Service
life varies in other engines (turbo and diesel) and
with other oils and filters.
NOTES:
-
Special adapters and hardware may
be required for some installations. A universal
mounting bracket is included with the kit, however,
custom brackets may be required depending on your
vehicle's equipment options or personal preferences
in mounting locations."
