An oil filter has to deal with several hundred liters of oil in a minute as oil is pumped through the engine lubricating system. It is its task to ensure that the combustion engine is lubricated in a perfect manner by removing dust, metal abrasion and other residue from the engine lubricating system, down to the smallest particles measuring no more than 10 µm. Hengst oil filters ensure perfect filter performance with a high dirt pick-up capacity. On account of its high-quality workmanship they ensure perfect functionality and have an especially high resistance to pressure and temperature in all operating situations, as well as a permanently high pulsation stability even in case of extreme operating pressure. On account of their precise manufacture they can be replaced quickly and easily, and they contribute to a measurable reduction of wear and tear to engine components as well as to a reduction of fuel consumption and emissions, while at the same time prolonging service intervals.
A fuel filter protects the injection system of an engine against contaminants in the fuel and contributes to a reliable functionality of the injection system and a perfect engine performance. Hengst fuel filters are able to withstand pressure peaks of up to 15 bar. They have been fitted with the latest filter materials, such as meltblown media, and thus are able to ensure perfect filtration, during which dirt particles of less than 2 µm are effectively removed. Thus, engines and injection systems are protected effectively and change intervals can be prolonged.
The most important filter in a petrol and diesel engine is the air filter because it has the task of holding back particles whilst drawing in air, thus ensuring a pure fuel-air mixture. Hengst air filters have a special paper embossing which ensures maximum filter stability and prevents filter clogging. The filter paper is high-quality embossed and remains pressure-stable and tear-resistant even in damp weather conditions. In addition, it is mainly flame-retardant and prevents engine fires caused by flying sparks. Air filters have a perfect fit, ensuring a high functional safety, hundred per cent tightness and a quick and easy installation. By dynamic engine usage they remain pulsation-stable and achieve a constant separation efficiency of almost one hundred per cent. Back
