Donaldson Blue premium filters from Donaldson Filtration are designed to meet a wide range of requirements for on-road and off-road trucks and equipment. They offer improved efficiency and enhanced engine and equipment protection. Users also benefit from reduced maintenance costs and increased equipment uptime. “We’ve combined and expanded several air, lube, coolant, on-engine fuel and bulk fuel filtration lines to create one premier filtration family that offers equipment owners proven protection,” said global product director, Ted Angelo.
Manufactured using Donaldson’s advanced Ultra-Web nanofibre technology, Donaldson Blue air filters are the best choice for on-road and off-road applications as they help reduce maintenance costs and increase equipment uptime. They protect engines and help them last longer by providing better efficiency compared to conventional cellulose media. When used in on-road truck applications, they are guaranteed to go twice the distance compared to cellulose media air filters.
For lube filters, the key to performance is balancing efficiency, capacity and restriction. Donaldson Blue lube filters with Synteq media balance all three characteristics, removing greater amounts of fine contaminant and delivering increased contaminant holding capacity compared to standard cellulose media. This adds up to longer filter life and better engine protection.
The Donaldson Blue filter line also includes innovations like bulk fuel filtration systems that clean fuel before it’s pumped into trucks and equipment. Clean diesel is essential for today’s high-tech truck engines to function properly – and Donaldson Blue filters help deliver cleaner fuel, resulting in reduced injector wear.
