Garrett Turbo PrecleanersTurbotech are a distributor and supplier of Garrett Precleaners. It is important to have us correctly size the precleaner you require for your machine. We can supply and fit the same day at an excellent price! In a Garrett Turbo II Precleaner, dirty air is drawn through the protective screen that repels stones and large debris. Compound angle vanes spin the incoming air causing centrigugal force to separate the dust and dirt from the air.
The dirt spins down the wall of the main chamber, into the blower chamber, and out the discharge ports at the base of the unit. As air enters through the vanes at the top of the unit, it rotates it rotates in a large spiral radius around the center dome. As the main stream of air spins down below the dome and into the intake stack, the radius becomes much smaller and the speed at which the air is spinning increases (more than doubles), somewhat like a whirlpool. This swiftly spinning air drives the spinnerand its outer blades. These rapidly spinning blades become a 'blower', drawing the dirt down and pushing it out the ports at the bottom.
The Garrett Precleaner has only one moving part, the spinner, and much attention has been given to its design. At the heart of the spinner are two shielded, precision ball bearings which are pressed into a close tolerance, threaded shaft that mounts the spinner to the underside of the dome. The bearings are completely enclosed in the spinner's plastic drive body, and therefore are protected from dirt and moisture. The spinner is a quality precision part and as such is fully lifetime warranted against failure. They are virually maintenance free as they are self powered and self cleaning. Your air filter element life will be greatly increased, and this can mean significant savings in the filter elements and servicing labour. An engine that breathes easier means more power and less fuel consumption. |
