Donaldson introduced The robust nature of its manufacturing process

coupled with its patented chemistry means
Ultra-Web Technology
Ultra-Web Technology provides a durable filtration
to industrial applications
solution in the high temperature and humid
more than 28 years ago environments experienced by diesel engines.
and to the diesel engine
Ultra-Web Technology offers a higher initial
market over 17 years ago. efficiency compared to standard cellulose media,
has very high efficiency throughout a filters life,
provides excellent loading in sub-micron particulate
(e.g. exhaust soot), and can even be pulse-cleaned
in applications such as military vehicles.

Comparative Cross Section Higher Efficiency = Better Engine Life

Cellulose Ultra-Web In laboratory and field tests, Ultra-Web air

filters provided better engine protection by
allowing less contaminant to pass through
the media than cellulose air filters. Filters
with Ultra-Web Technology can reach 99.99%
efficiency.

Ultra-Web nanofiber technology causes Efficiency (Tested with Submicron Particles)

submicron contaminant to load on the Filters with Ultra-Web Technology
surface rather than dispersing throughout Range of Conventional Cellulose Media
the depth of the filter where there is less
area for the air to flow. Therefore, where
the contaminant is primarily submicron in
size, filters with Ultra-Web technology cause
less restriction than conventional filters
with cellulose media. The smaller, interfiber
spaces of Ultra-Web nanofiber technology
have higher efficiency and capture more
contaminant. Capturing smaller and more
contaminants leads to better engine
protection no matter where your vehicle is
operating.

White circles represent the diameter of a 2 and a 5 particle.

Cellulose Media
Cellulose fibers are larger than
Ultra-Web nanofibers, and
have larger spaces between the
fibers, causing contaminant to
load in the depth of the media and
plug the airflow path; resulting
in higher restriction and less
capacity.
Ultra-Web air filters hold up to five times more
contaminant than cellulose air filters, making
them ideal for extended maintenance intervals
for on-highway trucks.

Range of Conventional Cellulose Media

Ultra-Web Media
Ultra-Web nanofibers have
submicron diameters and
small interfiber spaces, which
result in more contaminant
being captured on the surface
of the media and lower
restriction.

PJAC
In military vehicles operating in demanding environmental
Ultra
conditions, Donaldson supplies self-cleaning air cleaners
with Ultra-Web Technology to meet the demanding specs for
engine protection, filter service, improved fuel economy and
increased engine protection.
Ultra-Web nanofiber technology applied
to a PJAC (Pulse Jet Air Cleaner)
extends the operating time by more
than 10 times for the U.S. M1 tank with PJAC
a turbine engine.

Blue filters with Ultra-Web Technology in Donaldson SRG and

SSG air cleaners applied to mining haul trucks deliver: higher
capacity (as much as 5x more) for longer filter life; higher
efficiency for longer engine life; and extended maintenance
intervals for lower operating costs.

For on-road trucks, Ultra-Web Technology in

Donaldson Endurance air filters extends service intervals.
|Donaldson offers a "Twice the Life" guarantee for on-road
vehicles. Calculate your savings over standard cellulose
filters at www.donaldsonendurance.com.

Cabin air filters with Ultra-Web Technology provide twice the

life of a similar depth-loading cabin air filter operating at the
same pressure drop.
