Geely Emgrand EC715RV 718 Old British Vision Air Filter Element air cleaner filter element

Air filter is used to filter the air in the engine to avoid harmful substance from being sucked in, including dust, soot, smog, pollen and other pollutants. If these substances enter the engine, it will increase the abrasion between the piston and the cylinder and lead to fuel to be mixed into the combustion chamber, thus increasing the engine fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, decreasing the engine power and shortening its service life.

When driving a certain mileage, a large amount of dust and impurities will accumulate the surface of the air filter, resulting in a decline in air permeability, therefore, the air filter must be replaced regularly.

BENEFITS

1. Clean the air that goes into the engine, holding the dust and abrasive particles in the filter, thereby avoid engine wear and tear
2. High dust separation efficiency.
3. Help maintain regular fuel consumption.
4. Reduce engine noise and optimize performance.

AIR FILTER STRUCTURE

★ Structure of Filter Paper Air Filters for Light Vehicles

1. Filter media: plant fiber pleated filter paper
2. Frame: polyurethane sealant molding frame is used to ensure the best fit and sealing.
3. Optional support mesh type
(1) Expanded metal mesh
(2) Perforated metal mesh
(3) Perforated plastic mesh
4. Optional pre-filtration layer type: In high dusty areas, air filters are provided with a pre-filtration layer.
(1) Sponge
(2) Non-woven fabric

★ Structure of Non-Woven Fabric Air Filters for Light Vehicles

1. Filter media: non-woven fabric Filter media is suitable for high humidity filtration environments.
2. Solid propylene structure.
3. Sealing polyurethane gasket: good sealing effect.

★ Structure of Single Element Air Filters for Heavy Duty Vehicles

1. End caps: it consists of a top cap and a bottom cap to combine the filter element together.
(1) Metal end caps: provided with a gasket
(2) PP plastic end cap
(3) Polyurethane (PU) end cover: high strength polyurethane structure, with better adhesion and sealing.
2. Inner support tube: It plays a role of supporting the Filter media and improving the stability of the Filter media. There are main three types:
(1) Perforated tubes
(2) Expanded metal mesh
(3) Plastic tube (generally used with PP end caps and PU end caps)
3. Filter media: high filtration efficient, pleated filter paper;regular folding space creates a higher dirt holding capacity.
4. Optional additional reinforcement layer: Provide additional reinforcement to the pleated filter paper. There are three main types:
(1) Beading stabilises the media and prevents pleat wear.
(2) Plastisol spiral winding fixation
(3) Filament spiral winding
5. Optional outer support tube: perforated metal mesh or expanded metal mesh is employed to reinforce and protect the filter media, making its structure more stable forming.

The air cleaner filter element is an essential part that plays a vital role in maintaining clean and healthy air within various systems. It is specifically designed to filter and trap airborne contaminants, dust, pollen, dirt, and other particulate matter. This filter element acts as a barrier, preventing these impurities from entering and circulating in the environment it serves.

Constructed with high-quality materials, the air cleaner filter element offers superior filtration efficiency. It is engineered to have a fine mesh or porous structure that allows for effective capture of even the tiniest particles. This ensures that the air passing through is purified and free from harmful substances that could otherwise affect the performance and functionality of the system.

The durability of the air cleaner filter element is another important aspect. It is built to withstand different operating conditions and has a long lifespan, providing consistent and reliable filtration over time. Regular replacement of the filter element is crucial to maintain its optimal performance and ensure continuous clean air supply.

In many applications, such as in automotive, industrial, and HVAC systems, the air cleaner filter element is an integral component. In vehicles, it helps to improve the air quality inside the cabin, reducing the risk of allergies and respiratory issues for the occupants. In industrial settings, it protects machinery and equipment from dust and debris, enhancing their efficiency and longevity.

Moreover, the air cleaner filter element is easy to install and maintain. It can be quickly replaced when needed, ensuring that the system continues to operate smoothly and efficiently. Its importance cannot be overstated, as it directly impacts the health and comfort of people and the proper functioning of various systems. By using a high-quality air cleaner filter element, you can enjoy clean, fresh air and a more pleasant and healthy environment.
