Importance of air filter

Everyone knows that the engine is the heart of a car, and the oil is the blood of the car. And do you know? There is also a very important part of the car, that is the air filter. The air filter element is often overlooked by the drivers, but what everyone does not know is that it is such a small part that is very useful. The use of inferior air filter elements will increase your vehicle’s fuel consumption, cause the vehicle to produce serious sludge carbon deposits, destroy the air flow meter, severe throttle valve carbon deposits, and so on.We know that the combustion of gasoline or diesel in the engine cylinder requires inhalation of a large amount of air. There is a lot of dust in the air. The main component of dust is silicon dioxide (SiO2), which is a solid and insoluble solid, which is glass, ceramics, and crystals. The main component of the iron is harder than iron. If it enters the engine, it will aggravate the wear of the cylinder. In severe cases, it will burn engine oil, knock the cylinder and make abnormal noises, and eventually cause the engine to be overhauled. Therefore, in order to prevent these dust from entering the engine, an air filter element is installed at the inlet of the engine’s intake pipe.

Function of air filter element

air filter element refers to a device that removes particulate impurities in the air. When piston machinery (internal combustion engine, reciprocating compressor air filter element, etc.) is working, if the inhaled air contains dust and other impurities, it will aggravate the wear of the parts, so an air filter element must be installed. The air filter element is composed of a filter element and a shell. The main requirements of air filtration are high filtration efficiency, low flow resistance, and continuous use for a long time without maintenance.
