Air Intake Pre-Cleaners
Engine Protection Starts Here
Cleaner Air. Longer Filter Life. Lower Costs.
Our air intake pre-cleaners remove coarse dust, sand, debris, and moisture before they reach the main filter — extending filter life, reducing service intervals, and protecting engines in the toughest environments. By eliminating up to 99% of contaminants in real time, they improve overall engine efficiency, reduce fuel consumption, and lower your total cost of ownership. Ideal for retrofits or OEM applications, these pre-cleaners help engines perform reliably — from quarry to field to workshop.Applications:
- Internal-combustion engines
- Construction and mining equipment
- Agricultural and forestry machinery
- On/off-road and utility vehicles
- Generator sets and compressors
- Stone crushers and quarry machines
- Forklifts and material handlers
- Marine and off-road engines
- Industrial equipment in dusty, confined, or sensitive environments
Vortex
Self-Cleaning Pre-Cleaner — No Dust Bowl, No Maintenance
The Vortex pre-cleaner uses centrifugal airflow to separate and eject dust, sand, snow, and insects — without power, filters, or manual emptying. Its continuous self-cleaning action protects the engine and main filter, significantly increasing uptime and reducing maintenance costs.
Ideal for
- Heavy-duty mobile equipment
- Harsh construction, mining, and agricultural environments
- High-dust or remote operations where service access is limited
Key Advantages
- Extends filter life up to 12×
- Self-cleaning — no dust bowl, no manual service
- Works without power or exhaust connection
- Low-noise, low-restriction airflow
- Mounts in any position (horizontal or vertical)
- Reduces fuel and service costs
- Easy retrofit to existing filter systems
Properties
- Removes ≥87.5% coarse dust (up to 99% larger particles)
- Flow rate: 0.9 – 56.0 m³/min @ 20 mbar
- Operating temperature: −40 °C to +85 °C (peaks +100 °C)
- Low pressure drop – no impact on intake efficiency
- Zero increase in intake temperature
- Compatible with single- and two-stage air cleaners
VisiClean
Cyclone Pre-Cleaner with Visual Dust Collection
VisiClean removes over 85% of coarse particles before they reach the filter — collecting them in a transparent bowl for fast inspection and easy emptying. Ideal for applications where dust cannot be expelled freely into the environment.
Perfect for
- Agricultural, construction, or municipal vehicles
- Equipment operating near workers or sensitive surroundings
- Dry, dusty, or confined indoor/outdoor workspaces
Key Advantages
- Centrifugal separation with visible dust collection
- Transparent bowl for instant inspection
- Manual emptying — no dust expelled into the environment
- Low pressure loss and stable engine performance
- Durable, corrosion-resistant construction
- Compact design — mounts directly on air filter or intake pipe
- Functions as a rain cap replacement
Properties
- Removes ≥85% of coarse dust before reaching filter
- Flow rate: 1.4 – 33.4 m³/min @ 20 mbar
- Operating temperature: −40 °C to +85 °C (peaks +100 °C)
- Shock-, vibration-, and weather-resistant materials
Why Pre-Cleaners Matter
Every gram of dust removed before the filter saves wear, lowers fuel use, and reduces downtime. Whether you’re protecting a generator in the desert, a tractor in a field, or a forklift in a dusty warehouse — pre-cleaners are the first line of defense.
