【Meiruier FIlter】Paper air filter maintenance notes

Modern cars use paper air filter, high filtering efficiency, transmission rate is only 0.1% to 0.3% of dust. The use of paper air filter, can reduce the cylinder and piston wear and prolong the service life of the engine.

Paper air filter use maintenance notes
1 master the characteristics of the paper filter and cleaning methods. This kind of filter element uses the micro hole filter paper, the surface passes through the processing. When the engine works, the air is filtered through the micro holes to ensure that the clean air enters the cylinder. In use, the filter core is surrounded by a layer of dust, which can not be used with water or oil to prevent oil and water from filtering the filter element.

Cleaning method of common paper air filter element
A. pat method, the filter is removed from the shell, gently tapping the paper filter core end face so that the dust off, do not knock on the outer surface of the filter element to prevent damage to the filter.
B. purging, with compressed air blowing out from the interior of the filter element, the dust blowing. In order to prevent damage to the filter paper, compressed air pressure can not exceed 0.2 ~ 0.3MPa.
2 regular cleaning and replacement of filters. In accordance with the provisions of vehicle maintenance in use, often clean air filter, so as to avoid excessive dust filter on adhesion and increase the intake resistance, reduce engine power, fuel consumption increase. If filter element is damaged, need to be replaced in time.
3. Properly installed, to prevent air from entering the cylinder without filtering. In the inspection and maintenance of air filter, filter on the seal must be installed to ensure that the filter. If seal gasket has been aged deformation or fracture, should be replaced by new.
4. The replacement of the new filter, the filter should use the original supply, do not use inferior filter, generally from the packaging and appearance quality identification and inferior filter, can also be installed after the inspection, such as installing a new filter, auto emissions CO emissions exceed the standard, do not install filter of CO standard, if the core permeability the difference is, filter is not qualified.

Air filter installation notes
1.When fix air filter, the lower shell of the wing nut, do not over tighten.
2.To ensure that the air filter to the throttle body liner is installed, the air filter on the correct installation of the housing and fastening. Liner lost or misplaced, will cause the engine noise, or without the filtered air into the engine.
