AIR FILTER
[CODE NO.3967]
Automotive filters are usually made of different materials such as paper, foam and cotton. Paper filter are generally used for cars because they are inexpensive and disposable. With paper filters, good air flow is sacrificed for better filtration. For performance filtration, foam filters are used because these have a higher retention level and these permit better air intake, like cotton gauze. Foam filters are popular in rallying and other motor sports. Cotton on the other hand, is regarded as the best material for filtration. These can be cleaned and re-oiled to be used again. However, cotton air filters cannot be used at different environments. These cannot be used at dusty deserts and even snowy countries. This is why, paper and foam are better preferred by most motorists.
Atmospheric air consists of a large quantity of dirt and dust. Uncleaned air will cause faster wear of and damage to the engine parts, so air is filtered before entering inside the cylinder bore.
Purpose of air cleaner
• It cleans the intake air.
• It reduces the noise of the intake air.
• It acts as a flame arrester during engine backfire.
Function
The atmospheric air enters the air cleaner through the air entrance and passes through the paper element. The filtered clean air goes to the intake manifold entrance.
The primary function of an air filter is to deliver both high airflow and superior dirt protection therefore air filters should provide minimum restriction allowing high airflow into an engine. In the vast majority of cases increased airflow will increase engine performance measured by kilowatts and throttle response (torque).
Types of air filter
• Wet-type
• Dry-type
