Solé Diesel oil filter for Mini-50

Description

Solé Diesel oil filter for Mini-50

This genuine Solé Diesel oil filter is specifically intended for the Mini-50 marine diesel engine. The filter is part of the engine lubrication system and ensures that contaminants are removed from the engine oil before the oil is pumped back along important internal engine components.

During operation of a diesel engine, soot, small metal particles and other contaminants can enter the engine oil. If these particles continue to circulate in the oil for a prolonged period, they can accelerate wear on bearings and other moving components.

Technical specifications

Brand: Solé Diesel
Product type: Engine oil filter
Part number: 22.16124051
Suitable for: Solé Diesel Mini-50
Application: Engine oil system
Function: Filtration of contaminants from the engine oil

Specifically for Solé Diesel Mini-50

This oil filter is specifically intended for the Solé Diesel Mini-50. Solé uses several oil filters within the Mini series that may look very similar externally but can differ in dimensions and connections.

Therefore, always check the engine type and part number before ordering the filter.

Function of the oil filter

While the engine is running, the engine oil continuously circulates through the engine to lubricate moving components and dissipate heat. The oil filter removes contamination from this oil flow before the oil is distributed through the engine again.

This helps prevent hard particles and combustion residues from reaching bearings, the crankshaft, camshaft and other lubricated components.

What contamination is filtered?

During normal engine operation, various types of contamination can enter the engine oil. The oil filter helps remove these contaminants from the circulating oil.

Examples of contamination:
Soot and combustion residues
Small metal particles from normal engine wear
Dust and other fine contaminants
Deposits carried by the engine oil

Why replace the oil filter on time?

As the filter remains in use, the filter material gradually becomes filled with dirt. If an oil filter is left in place for too long, its filtering performance may decrease and oil flow may be affected.

Timely replacement helps keep the engine oil clean and supports reliable lubrication throughout the maintenance interval.

Replace at every oil change

It is advisable to replace the oil filter at every engine oil change. This prevents new, clean engine oil from having to circulate through an old filter containing accumulated contamination.

Always follow the maintenance schedule of the Solé Mini-50 for the exact service interval.

Make sure you use the correct filter type

This filter for the Mini-50 should not be confused with Solé oil filter 22.13124051. That filter is used on other engines within the Mini series and may have different physical dimensions or connections.

Therefore, even if two filters look almost identical externally, this does not automatically mean that they are interchangeable.

Installation

Remove the old filter according to the Solé Diesel maintenance instructions and clean the sealing surface. Check that the rubber sealing ring from the old filter has not remained on the engine block.

Lightly lubricate the sealing ring of the new filter with clean engine oil and install the filter according to the specified method. After starting the engine, check the oil level and carefully inspect around the filter for leaks.
