By sampling after the pump and before the filter, we can still see an increased rate of wear generation with oil analysis.
Is Too Much Filtration a Bad Thing?
"A customer of ours is using an external engine oil filtration device designed to remove contaminants down to the 1- to 3-micron range while not affecting the additive package. The customer now believes he can extend the recommended oil change interval from 250 hours to 1,000 hours. My question is if you remove all the normal wear particles, how can you determine or trend the wear in the engine."
