AMSOIL Ea® Air Filters represent a major breakthrough in filtration technology. The revolutionary synthetic technology used in AMSOIL Ea Filters captures more dirt, holds more dirt and allows better air flow than conventional air filters. AMSOIL Ea Filters can improve engine performance and help engines last longer.
Absolute Efficiency
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters rank among the most efficient filters available to the auto/lighttruck market. Ea Air Filters’ synthetic media removes 5 times more dust than traditional cellulose media alone and 50 times more dust than wet gauze filter media. AMSOIL Ea Air Filters have a service life of 100,000 miles or four years, whichever comes first.
Better Air Flow
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters allow more airflow than filters that use cellulose media alone.
Cellulose fibers are larger than synthetic fibers, and have larger spaces between the
fibers, causing contaminants to load in the depth of the media and plug the airflow
path, which results in higher restriction and less capacity. The synthetic
fibers in Ea Filter media have submicron diameters and small
interfiber spaces, which result in more contaminants being captured
on the surface of the media and lower restriction.
More Capacity
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters hold up to 2.5 times more contaminants than
cellulose air filters. Since the fibers in the media are so small there
are more pores per square inch, allowing for higher dirt-holding
capacity and lower pressure drop when compared to cellulose fiber
media alone. Thinner media fibers produce more uniform pore size
distribution, improving the filter’s overall quality and ability to capture
and retain particles. Testing shows that Ea Air Filters hold
15 times more contaminants than a wet-gauze-type filter.
Cleanable - Longer Life
When cleaned according to AMSOIL specifications and used in normal service,
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters are guaranteed for 100,000 miles or four years, whichever
comes first. Ea Air Filters remain effective for 25,000 miles or one year before requiring
cleaning. This coincides with the AMSOIL 25,000-mile/one-year motor oil drain interval,
adding even more convenience for motorists by consolidating routine maintenance. (See below for cleaning instructions.)
Applications
AMSOIL Ea® Air Filters provide superior air filtration for vehicles in the auto/light-truck market.
Cleaning
Ea Air Filters should be cleaned every year or 25,000 miles,
whichever comes first. Carefully remove the filter from the
housing. Clean the housing with a shop towel, being careful not
to knock contaminants into the air inlet. Filters can be cleaned
by carefully vacuuming the filter media on the dirty side, or by
holding the filter with one hand and carefully blowing the filter
media at a 45-degree angle on the clean side using low-pressure
shop air (15-20 lbs. psi).
Service Life
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters are guaranteed for four years or 100,000
miles, whichever comes first. The guarantee applies only if the
filter has been serviced according to AMSOIL recommendations.
In off-road, frequently dusty or other severe-duty applications
clean and change more often as determined by operating
conditions or as indicated by restriction gauge.
