 FULLY RE-USEABLE
FOAM AIR FILTERS?
BECAUSE THEY WORK LIKE
THIS.......UniFilters work
on the most basic principal known to man - that is, man's own air filter
- the human nose. How a UniFilter works is the same explanation used to describe
the workings of that thing just below and between your eyes. What we have
is a wet/sticky passage that allows the air to flow freely with the fluid
catching the airborne particles as they try to find their way to where they
will do the most damage.
To be technical about it - to reproduce the nose passage UniFilter uses an
open cell loam which is 3% to 5% product and 95% to 97% void space. This
open cell structure allows air to be pulled through the foam with 40% to
60% less effort than conventional paper cleaners. Sticky filter oil then
comes into play - UniFilters "Filter Fix" filter oil is a heavy weight mineral
oil mixed with non drying glue agents. (Mineral oil is used in preference
to synthetics as mineral oil will not "dry" or effect the cell structure
of the foam). This mix of oil is very important for good filtration - as
it must be liquid enough to travel and meet the dust as it builds up on the
surface of the foam and thick enough so as not to drain from the foam. The
formulation of "Filter Fix" has taken many years to perfect, since 1978 there
has been several improvements, on each occasion some two years of field testing
has occurred prior to acceptance of that formula - the present formula is
simply the best on the market.
So to compare a UniFilter with a conventional paper air filter, as mentioned,
far less effort is required to pull air through the filter - giving a performance
increase particularly when it comes to fuel saving (better air flow or what
should be stated - less vacuum - resulting in smoother running and therefore
less fuel being sucked into the system). Dust retention wise, a paper filter
is in fact a sieve which must have holes large enough to allow air to pass
through. That hole size will allow dust particles of 35 to 40 micron to pass
- UniFilter's sticky oil catches everything above 4 to 5 micron. Given that
engine wear is caused by dust particles larger than 15 micron - UniFilter
air filters are way out in front when it comes to dust retention.
The advantage does not finish there - UniFilter elements are re-useable -
at around the normal life of a paper cleaner, UniFilter elements can be washed
out with mineral turpentine, re-oiled with "Filter Fix" and returned to the
vehicle. Economically and Environmentally - a great concept.
