Air filter is one of the important components of engineering machinery engines, used to filter out dust and foreign objects in the air, providing clean air for the engine, preventing mechanical wear, effectively protecting the normal operation of the engine, and improving its service life.
Principles for selecting air filters for construction machinery
Generally, when selecting air filters for construction machinery, the structure and capacity parameters of the filters should be taken into consideration for normal engine use. Especially in areas with high levels of sand and dust, it is necessary to choose high-capacity air filters and shorten the filter replacement cycle accordingly.
In addition, the pipeline and interface connecting the air filter must be strictly sealed and reliable, and there should be no air leakage. Attention should also be paid to protecting the inlet position of the filter intake pipe to prevent damage and loss of air filter function.
Maintenance of air filters for construction machinery
1. Strictly follow the maintenance cycle of the air filter, and clean and replace the filter in a timely manner. For situations where the dust in the driving area is particularly heavy, the filter maintenance cycle needs to be shortened accordingly.
2. Pay attention to cleaning the dust bag to prevent too much dust from accumulating inside the dust tray.
3. Regular inspection and cleaning of the air filter element are required. When cleaning the filter, it is strictly prohibited to use oil or water for cleaning.
4. After maintenance of the filter, pay attention to correct installation and do not install the reverse filter.
