An Air Cleaner, also known as an air filter or intake filter, is to filter the air that enters the engine, removing contaminants and preventing them from reaching the combustion chamber. It is located between the air intake unit and the engine's intake manifold and consists of two separate filter elements housed within an air cleaner. The primary purpose of the air cleaner is to capture and trap airborne particles, such as dust, dirt, pollen, and debris before they can enter the engine. Attributes: • Helps to maintain the proper air-to-fuel ratio • Allows for efficient fuel combustion and improved engine performance Applications: An Air Cleaner acts as a filtration unit and helps to prevent damage and wear to engine parts like cylinders, pistons, valves, and piston rings.
