A built-in magnetic filter module for filtering working fluids of a clutch separation system, said built-in magnetic filter module comprising:
- an air release valve of said clutch separation system;
- and
- a magnetic filtration unit, wherein said air release valve includes a housing having an air release vent and a pipe section providing passage for the working fluid, said magnetic filtration unit being installed on a circumference of an internal wall of said pipe section, said magnetic filtration unit being configured to contact said working fluid and attract metallic foreign matter from within said working fluid.
A built-in magnetic filter module for filtering working fluids of a clutch separation system, said built-in magnetic filter module comprising:
- an air release valve of said clutch separation system;
- and
- a magnetic filtration unit,
- wherein said air release valve includes a housing having a pipe section providing passage for the working fluid, said magnetic filtration unit being installed on a circumference of an internal wall of said pipe section, said magnetic filtration unit being configured to contact said working fluid and attract metallic foreign matter from within said working fluid;
- wherein said built-in magnetic filter module comprises a press fit member installed on the circumference of the internal wall, said circumference of the internal wall possessing a first step, said first step and said press fit member configured to position the magnetic filtration unit according to a flow direction of the working fluid flowing within said housing, and
- wherein, a channel is defined radially inside of said magnetic filtration unit and said press fit member through which the working fluid can flow, a radial dimension of a part of said channel radially inside said magnetic filtration unit is greater than or equal to a radial dimension of the part of said channel radially inside said press fit member.
