We may find out for ourselves that it is necessary to use anti-dust filters when we replace the filter. It is enough to thoroughly inspect the surface of the worn filter. The awareness that many of the impurities collected thereon could end up in our lungs is the most appealing argument for the application of this type of filter in your car.

 

Anti-dust filters, also called cabin filters, filter the air sucked directly from the road, which is forced via the ventilation system or the air-conditioning to the vehicle passenger compartment. In the case of those drivers, who spend many hours in their cars, the filters greatly affect their well being - it is important for the air they breathe in to be free of contamination. The feeling of tiredness, hay fever, tearing or breathing difficulties will definitely adversely affect the driver's response and may pose actual threat to road safety. You can prevent this happening by using anti-dust filters.

 

Construction and manufacturing the filters that despite their small sizes they effectively stop the impurities without clogging and offer service life long enough for the user was possible due to the application of proper filtration media consisting of several types of polyester fibres providing optimum capacity and effectiveness of filtration.

For the most demanding clients - active carbon filters:

 

WIX anti-dust filters with active carbon are a group of filters with excellent filtration properties.

For the efficient separation of solid and liquid impurities, two layers of synthetic fabric are applied.  Apart from that, the layer of active carbon, located between the said layers effectively removes harmful gases from the air.

Active carbon as such is the porous type of carbon of the structure similar to graphite. It attracts harmful gases to its surface due to absorption. It is interesting to know that the actual surface of 1 gram of active carbon can be as big as 900 m2. Due to that very feature the effectiveness of filtration of gas pollutants is very high.

 

Due to the application of the proper amount of active carbon, gases that are present in the air we breathe in such as ozone, hydrocarbons, sulphur and nitrogen compounds are almost entirely eliminated during the filter service life.

 

Do you know that?

Application and regular replacement of cabin filters is essential. Particles smaller than 3 µm easily get to your lungs. Deposits of impurities as well as breathing in harmful gases adversely affects your health, often the effects are irreversible.
