− | ==== General info ====
| + | Choose your air cabin filter wisely: |
| + | # There are many erroneous aftermarket compatibility claims (regarding dimensions) on the Internet. |
| + | #* First check if the dimensions match. |
| + | # Then choose a suitable filter ''type''. |
| + | #* Your aim should be to match filter's filtering capabilities with your inhalation requirements. |
| | | |
| | | |
− | When selecting a filter, consider what types of pollutants concern you the most:
| + | {{note|All info about cabin filters is written in detail in the wiki article [[Fluids and filters - proper selection#Notes on cabin air filters|'''Fluids and filters - proper selection '''/ chapter ''"cabin air filters"'']].}} |
− | * Ordinary paper / fiber filters (the most common products) filter only dust and some pollen.
| |
− | * Filters which also contain carbon (charcoal) particles filter various odors, smells, gases and chemical vapors as well.
| |
− | * The "biofunctional" / "antibacterial" etc. filters filter mold, bacteria, spores etc. as well.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | Bear in mind that filters from different manufacturers have different quality, which consists of two factors:
| |
− | * How well they filter what they filter.
| |
− | ** In other words - how small dust and pollen particles, which types of vapors and gases and how much of them.
| |
− | * How much of the pollutants they can filter before they get clogged and become an obstruction to expected air flow into the cabin.
| |
− | ** In other words - what is their expected operational life time.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | [https://www.meyle.com/en/passenger-cars/filters/cabin-air-filter/ This article] is one of many which explains the differences between different filtering capabilities of filters.

| |
− | * 95860-81A10

| |
− | | |
− | All three should be mutually compatible (same dimensions etc.). A guess is that the differences are probably "only" in the filtering capability.

− | ==== Additional notes and warnings ====
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | * The appearance and construction of a cabin filter may vary slightly from one manufacturer to another.
| |
− | * Some filters are one-part, like in the picture of a dirty filter above.
| |
− | * Some are two-part, and the parts can be glued or taped together (like in the other picture above).
| |
− | * Always make sure to check the dimensions of a filter when buying.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | * The quality and capability of a filter may vary significantly from one manufacturer or model to another.
| |
− | * The main difference is in the presence or absence of various filtering elements which filter out certain things.
| |
− | ** For example, a filter with or without [https://www.mne.psu.edu/cimbala/me433/Lectures/Activated_Carbon_or_Charcoal_Filters.pdf '''carbon (charcoal)'''] particles.
| |
− | *** Such filters usually look "dirty" like having a bit of soot in them.
| |
− | * It is highly recommended to use a filter with activated carbon particles, but be prepared to pay a higher price.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | * Blue Print's ADK82502 filter used to be a two-part construction with embedded carbon (charcoal) particles.
| |
− | * However, there have been recent reports of "sightings" of the '''same''' filter model which contained a lot less charcoal particles, and also of a plain ordinary paper filter in a single-part case.
| |
− | * So, if buying this filter model (or any other filter model for that matter), double-check with the seller on what exact filter is in the box!

− | * Two "same" cabin filters Blue Print ADK82502.
| |
− | * The amount of carbon particles in the newer (left) filter is significantly less than in the older (right) filter.
| |
− | * There have also been confirmed sightings of this filter model which had a pure white color, without a single carbon particle in it.
| |
− | * Obviously the amount of carbon particles in this filter model varies widely from batch to batch!
