- Engine is a vital part of the powerhouse, performing the toughest job and requiring extra attention to the condition of its moving components like valves, cylinder surfaces, piston rings, and bearings. Large foreign objects and airborne particles as well pose huge threats to their integrity, function, and consequently to the safety of passengers on board. That's where the engine air intake filter comes into play.
- As the first line of defense to the engine, a quality air filter must be characterized by increased filtration efficiency, high-permeability, higher dust-holding capacity, and thermal stability as well.
- Due to the immense air mass the engine needs to burn at stoichiometric coefficient, a high-performing air filter is essential.
General Information
Description
The main purpose of the air filter is to filter out dust, dirts, debris and airborne particles. Therefore its material selection, media and structure all must serve the same purpose.
- Synthetic non-woven as media cover for better maintaining shape and keeping evenly distributed media in good position
- Fibrous paper or fiberglass substrates bonded by resin to create strong and flexible frame material
- Higher retention level and therefore better air intake
- Cellulose pleated for excellent air flow
Filter Media
- Mesh screen on the backside supports the filter paper and media, preventing from bundling and bunching
- Durable sealing gasket ensures maximal sealing and preventing particle entry
- Easy installation with polyurethane panel
Panel Construction
- Filter insert impregnated with a special synthetic materials, increasing the resistance to water and chemicals, and enhancing resistance to ageing and pressure surge as well
- Extended heat treatment to enhance the strength of the filter structure
- Corrugated deep, rapid pleating and curing speed, extended contact area of the filter
- Fine fiber meltblown increases the stability of the pleats
Secondary Treatment
Technical Features and Properties
- Improved deep-bed and gradient media construction for maximum filtration with longer service life and improved initial filtration performance
- Optimized pleat geometry and reinforced with special structure to create more area for capturing dirt in a small space
- Specially engineered and fabricated non-woven for resisting constant airflow pressure and particle impact
- Drop-in design, stabilization structure on certain models, high permeability substrates
Benefits
- Excellent air permeability, adding horsepower and acceleration to the vehicle by providing more air flow
- Excellent thermal and chemical stability, high corrugation depth and good water resistance
- Large filtration surface, high particle filtration efficiency while low pressure drop
- High saturation capacity and high pulsation stability, reducing intake noise
- High quality polyurethane construction, low TCO(Total Cost of Ownership)
