The air filter helps your car engine to breathe
The air filter helps your car engine to "breathe"
Among the many parts of the car, the air filter is an inconspicuous component, because it is not directly related to the technical performance of the car, but in the actual use of the car, the air filter has a great impact on the service life of the engine. Big impact.
The role of the air filter
Everyone knows that when the engine is working, it needs to continuously inhale air. If the inhaled air is not filtered, then a large amount of dust, particles and other impurities will enter the cylinder, which can cause serious wear of the engine cylinder.
The main function of the air filter is to finely filter the air entering the engine cylinder, isolate the dust and some suspended particles in the air, and ensure that the air entering the engine is clean.
When the air filter is severely clogged
In actual work, when the filter element of the air filter is severely blocked by dust or suspended particles and cannot meet the air flow required by the engine, the engine will "out of breath" and the following abnormalities will occur:
1. The roaring sound is muffled and the acceleration is slow (the air intake is insufficient and the cylinder pressure is not enough);
2. Weak work (incomplete combustion due to over-concentration of mixed gas);
3. The water temperature rises relatively (combustion continues when entering the exhaust stroke);
4. Exhaust smoke becomes thicker when accelerating (the air flow is not enough to cause incomplete combustion in a short time).
When these symptoms appear, you should consider maintaining and replacing the air filter as soon as possible. When severely blocked
Misunderstandings in the use of air filters
After all, not every car owner is a veteran car driver, and there is more or less a certain lack of knowledge in the maintenance and replacement of air filters. Next, let's take a look at a few common misunderstandings in the use of air filters.
Misunderstanding 1: Remove the air filter at will
Some car owners feel that the air filter can't do much, so when the air filter is completely clogged, the air filter element is simply removed without replacing it. This may not affect the performance of the engine in a short time, but in the long run, the wear and tear on the engine is very serious.
Data shows that the wear rate of cylinders in engines without automobile air filters is more than 8 times, the wear rate of pistons is more than 3 times, and the wear rate of piston rings is more than 9 times.
Misunderstanding 2: Limited by the maintenance of the user manual
Veteran drivers should all know the importance of replacing the car air filter, but when replacing the car air filter, because of the restrictions of the user manual, after driving to the recommended mileage, replace the air filter.
This is wrong, because there is no absolute standard for the replacement of the air filter. Under normal circumstances, the replacement cycle of automobile air filters is 15,000 kilometers. However, in areas with heavier air pollution, the maintenance cycle should be shortened, and in areas with low dust content, the maintenance or replacement cycle of the air filter can be appropriately extended.
Misunderstanding 3: Use an air gun to clean the air filter
The air filter used in cars nowadays is generally a dry filter element, and the filter material is mostly paper or non-woven fabric. The fiber layer of the filter material has the function of adsorbing dust particles. Once the fiber layer is damaged, the air filter will filter Performance no longer exists.
If you blow with an air gun, the strong airflow will drive dust particles, destroy the filter paper fibers, and expand the air filter gap. If the impact force is too large, it will directly blow the filter paper. How can such a riddled air filter block? Where's the dust? So car owners, if the air filter is dirty, don't blow it with an air gun.
Misunderstanding 4: Buy poor quality air filters
In order to save costs, some car owners may choose cheap and unknown brand air filters when maintaining and replacing air filters. Cheaper often means poor quality. Such air filters are effective in filtering small suspended particles. Low and poor physical stability, long-term use will inevitably lead to a decline in the performance of the car engine, a significant increase in fuel consumption, and even damage to the engine.
Therefore, when choosing a car, you must choose a regular brand product when choosing a car air filter.
Our company's air filter products use high-quality all-adhesive paper, which has good water resistance, excellent filtration efficiency and high temperature resistance, while meeting the requirements of air inlet flow, ensuring sufficient air intake and clean air, and more excellent origami The craftsmanship has the characteristics of large dust holding capacity and long service life, ensuring the "breathing" of your car's engine. Be sure to choose regular, big-brand products.
Hiking filter's air filter products use high-quality all-adhesive paper, have good water resistance, excellent filtration efficiency and high temperature resistance, and meet the airflow requirements to ensure sufficient air intake and clean air, and more excellent The origami process has the characteristics of large dust holding capacity and long service life, ensuring that the engine of your car "breathes freely".
