<strong>Cabin</strong> <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Filter</strong> <strong>Filter</strong> Types & Replacement<br />

GB<br />

<strong>Filter</strong> Types Replacement<br />

Particle <strong>Filter</strong>s<br />

Particle <strong>Filter</strong>s from DENSO offer exceptional protection from dust,<br />

soot, pollen and particles. Featuring multi-layer fleece material to<br />

efficiently remove dust and solid matter, they also have a large dust<br />

holding capacity and minimise air flow resistance.<br />

Particle <strong>Filter</strong>s<br />

Combination <strong>Filter</strong>s<br />

DENSO Combination <strong>Filter</strong>s offer all of the blocking, electrostatic and<br />

nanofibre technologies of our Particle <strong>Filter</strong>s; trapping almost 100% of<br />

dust, pollen and solid particles before they can be inhaled.<br />

But thanks to an additional, activated charcoal layer located inside the<br />

filtration material our Combination <strong>Filter</strong>s offer an added advantage.<br />

The result is a cabin atmosphere that always stays fresh, pleasant<br />

and healthy to breathe.<br />

Combination <strong>Filter</strong>s<br />

How do they work?<br />

> Removal by blocking – particles are prevented from<br />

entering the cabin by a close meshed, non-woven filter<br />

layer. Particles trapped are then deposited into the filter<br />

housing.<br />

> Removal by electrostatics – small particles with<br />

permanent or temporary charges are attracted and held<br />

back by electrostatic interaction.<br />

> Nanofibre coatings – A layer of fine fibres is spun into the<br />

filter media, preventing pressure drop.<br />

Although most of today’s new vehicles are already fitted with <strong>Cabin</strong><br />

<strong>Air</strong> <strong>Filter</strong>s, over time the filter becomes clogged with dust and dirt that<br />

can eventually be infected by bacteria, mildews and micro-organisms.<br />

This makes the filter a potential source of allergens as well as<br />

reducing filtration effectiveness and electrostatic charge. There can<br />

even be an increase in pressure drop, stressing the HVAC system.<br />

To maintain a fresh, safe in-car environment DENSO recommends<br />

replacing the <strong>Cabin</strong> <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Filter</strong> at least once a year, every 10,000<br />

– 15,000 km, or as specified by the vehicle manufacturer, whatever<br />

comes first. Only regular replacement ensures the continued filtration<br />

efficiency and good HVAC performance that guarantee a more<br />

hygienic, comfortable car interior.<br />

Replacement Sense<br />

> Get ready for demand - More than 80% of all European<br />

passenger cars are already fitted with <strong>Cabin</strong> <strong>Air</strong><br />

<strong>Filter</strong>s, and the trend is rising. This makes timely part<br />

replacement an increasingly important and high volume<br />

responsibility for the aftermarket.<br />

> Health education - Drivers are rarely aware of the<br />

importance of regular <strong>Cabin</strong> <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Filter</strong> replacement – or<br />

the consequences of delay. Take time to educate your<br />

customers. Prompt action will help to protect their own<br />

health, and the well-being of their passengers.<br />

> In city and country - Solid matter, particles, noxious<br />

gases and unpleasant smells affect rural as well as urban<br />

areas, making <strong>Cabin</strong> <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Filter</strong> replacement important in<br />

any environment.<br />
