Filtron Air Filter AP160/1 Cabin Filter K1210A Oil Filter OP572

Filtron Air Filter AP160/1
The Filtron AP160/1 air filter is a crucial component of the engine’s intake system, responsible for purifying the air entering the internal combustion engine. It ensures that contaminants such as dust, sand, soot, and other solid particles do not enter the engine, thus ensuring its proper functioning and longevity.

Function and Importance of the Air Filter:

• Air purification: The air filter traps contaminants that can affect the engine’s performance and durability. It cleans the air that is drawn into the engine’s intake system.

• Engine protection: Acts as a protective barrier against dirt, sand, dust, and soot particles, which could otherwise lead to accelerated wear of engine components.

• Power optimization: Provides the appropriate amount of clean air for combustion, directly affecting the engine’s ability to maintain high power.

• Noise reduction: The air filter helps to reduce the noise of the incoming air, improving engine comfort and reducing vehicle noise levels.

Filtron Cabin Filter K1210A
The air drawn in by a vehicle’s ventilation system comes directly from the road, where its quality is often much worse than the surrounding environment. The concentration of pollutants inside the vehicle can be up to 6 times higher than outside if the car is not equipped with an effective cabin filter.

Filtron K1210A effectively traps:

• Suspended particles (PM10 and PM2.5): Fine soot, dust, and exhaust particles.

• Pollen: Essential for allergy sufferers, reducing allergic reactions.

• Industrial pollutants: Such as toxic heavy metal particles.

• Molds and fungi: That can develop in the vehicle’s humid environment.

Regular replacement of the cabin filter helps reduce the inhalation of harmful substances, protecting the health of the driver and passengers.

What factors affect air quality inside the cabin?
The air pollution inside the car depends on:

• Traffic intensity: Higher levels of exhaust fumes and fine particles in the air.

• Seasons: Increased pollen in the spring, more soot and ash in the winter.

• Weather conditions: Fog and lack of wind increase pollutant concentrations.

• Proximity to industrial plants: Greater amounts of dust and chemical substances.

Filtron Oil Filter OP572
The Filtron OP572 oil filter is an essential component in the engine's lubrication system, playing a key role in keeping the engine in good condition over time. The engine oil, which continuously circulates through the engine, serves functions such as cooling and cleaning, removing residues of burnt fuel and other impurities. These contaminants can cause the oil's viscosity to increase, reducing its effectiveness, and in the long run, potentially leading to engine damage.

Role of the oil filter:
The oil filter is responsible for capturing fine particles such as soot, metal fragments, and other impurities that can enter the engine oil. This ensures that the engine oil remains clean, providing effective lubrication and protection against wear, while also improving the engine's performance.
