General Aviation Filters

Airplane, Filter Donaldson - General Aviation Filters

Fact: Donaldson Filters have better airflow

• Donaldson Filter Media is made with High Performance Dry Synthetic Media
• Synthetic man made fibers are uniformly distributed across the media leaving no holes or gaps to allow debris to pass thru.
• The filter media fibers are engineered with specific properties, patterns and densities to trap more dirt while channeling optimal airflow

Fact: Your engine will develop as good or better Horsepower using Donaldson filters

• Donaldson filters restriction is Lower and would theoretically provide a fractional performance advantage

Fact: Donaldson Filters stop more dirt from entering your engine

• Donaldson filters provide Superior engine protection than “wet” or Oiled filters
• Donaldson filter prevent 98% or greater vs. ISO coarse dust at rate flow from entering your engine
• Tested per ISO5011 specifications

Fact: Donaldson filters are Long Lasting, Cleanable and are Cost efficient

• Designed to perform for 500 FH, 3-years or 5 cleaning which ever comes first (refer to service instructions found in document P469075 for complete details)

Fact: Donaldson filters are FAA-PMA approved

• No - STC’s required, Most Cessna, Beechcraft, Piper, Mooney, Maule aircraft were designed to use a Donaldson filter and had Donaldson filters installed at the factory.
• PMA approved and available from multiple well know distributors

Fact: OEM Choice, Donaldson Filters have been the OEM’s choice for over 40 years.

• Over 75 aircraft platforms have been designed to use a Donaldson engine intake filter providing mission critical performance and protection.
  • Engine Intake Filters
  • Instrument air filters

Fact: Synthetic Media is commonly referred to as “DRY” media

• no sticky/messy oil is needed for dust trapping
• better for the environment cleanable, no oils to pollute the environment

Fact: Meets & Exceeds FAR 25.853 flammability tests

• Oiled or “Wet” filters do not pass FAR 25.853 flammability test, including a 12 second vertical burn test

Fact: Designed to exceeded FAR 23.1107

• Induction systems requirements

Fact: Solid construction

• No removable parts-not a kit, no loose screens, elements or screws

Fact: Synthetic media will not hold moisture

• Moisture passes thru media, the syntetic fibers will not absorb moisture or casue water to bead up on the surface
