Its cellulose media captures contaminants down to 35 microns, balancing filtration efficiency and flow rate. The anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, reducing wear during startup. The bypass relief valve activates at 30 psi to maintain oil flow if the filter becomes clogged, protecting the engine from oil starvation. With a burst pressure of 300 psi, this filter withstands high-pressure conditions without failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Applications and Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Wix engine oil filter is compatible with Porsche 911 vehicles, providing reliable filtration tailored to the engine's requirements.
