How it works:

1st Stage: Air is precleaned by a Series 9000

  1. Air enters the OPTIMAX® through a prescreen (or optional heavy-debris screen screen) that removes the largest contaminants.
  2. Curved particle-accelerator blades direct air and dirt up against the sidewall.
  3. Strakes (angled fins) along the interior surface move heavier-than-air debris towards the ejection slot.
  4. The pre-cleaned air exits stage one and enters the second stage of the OPTIMAX®.

2nd Stage: Air passes through OPTIMAX Separation Chamber

  1. Remaining fine heavier-than-air debris swirls around the outer walls.
  2. Debris is then isolated in the exit tray of stage two.
  3. Isolated debris is removed through the machines’s exhaust system.
  4. Clean air continues to the engine’s air filter housing.
