FUEL FILTERS
THE KEY ROLE OF THE FUEL FILTER
Did you know?
TYPES OF FILTER
RISKS relating to poor filtration
CONSEQUENCES
OIL
Premature wear of mechanical engine parts (crankshaft, camshaft, valves) and turbocharger
Engine/turbocharger damage
FUEL
Fouling/damage to injection system
Breakdown/starting problems
ENGINE AIR
Poor air circulation/engine not protected against external particles
Excessive fuel consumption/engine wear
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
Formation of bacteria/poor air circulation
Passenger discomfort/formation of mist
DESICCATOR
Corrosion/frost in pneumatic system
Braking and suspension problems
AD BLUE
Urea injection system failure/wear
Non-compliance with emission standards/switch to degraded mode
FILTER
Contamination of turbocharger and air exchanger
Durability and performance levels of components & organs reduced
FILTRATION MATERIAL: A HIGH TECHNOLOGY ELEMENT
The quality of the filter element is crucial and IVECO worked to offer filtration reliable on three aspects:
- Longer product lifespan: resists extreme temperatures, vibrations and pressure.
- More efficient particle retention: innovative multi-layered filtering material.
- No load leakage: adapted to fit your engine to ensure optimised fuel flow.
MAINTENANCE TIPS
- For optimum performance, change your filter every 600 hours (or once a year).
- Make significant savings by purchasing your filter as part of an IVECO maintenance kit.
- If your filter is not packaged, store upside down to protect it from dust particles.
