Air Filter Elements

Post by Dak »

Whats everyone running? I'm running Donaldson ones in the standard housing but aren't to fussed on the amount of fine dust they miss, the engine side sometimes has very fine dust on the surface of the filter housing.

Cheers, Jeff.

Hi mates,

I know that my question may sound dumm, but I was cleaning my air filter yesterday and I was woundering about what is the prefilter in my GQ, I did a general clean up, and I unplugged the centrifuge air unit, and when I unpluged it, I saw that it dosen't have nothing inside just a centrifuge made out of metal I thought that it will have a filter, so I was woundering if that is what you guys call prefilter, if not, please let me know what is it and where it is?
I posted a pic where you can see what I thought it was the prefilter.

Yeah, thats often refered to as a prefilter, there should be a little rubber valve jobby at the bottom that you can squeeze to let any build up of crap out of. Some models it gets removed when you fit a snorkel.

Ok, so mine is the same as you had described, it has the same rubber valve jobby in order clean it. But I was wondering, what kind of air effect the centrifuge produce in order to clean?
