Mannheimer develops and provides customized filters for Weichai Power

Man Humeer announced today that it will strengthen cooperation with Weichai Power, one of China's largest internal combustion engine manufacturers, and further expand its strategic R&D partnership. Both parties will jointly develop products that meet higher emission standards based on the characteristics of the Chinese market. In the current economic slowdown and the filter industry is facing challenges, this approach by Man Hummel not only demonstrates its strong R&D capabilities, but also further implements its long-term commitment to the Chinese market.

As an important member of the Weichai power product research and development community, Mann Hummel and Weichai will deepen their cooperation in energy conservation and environmental protection. In addition to continuing to provide Weichai with filter products that meet Euro III emission standards, they will also jointly develop Compliant with Euro IV and Euro 5 emission standards, the more comprehensive products include integrated environmental filters, plastic cylinder covers, and plastic oil pans.

Mr. Patrick Cudmore, Managing Director of Man Hummel China, said: “China has always been an important strategic market for Man Hummer. The global economic crisis is not only a challenge but also an opportunity for the Chinese market. We look for it. We will develop opportunities, continue to strengthen cooperation with Chinese customers, and accelerate the localization process with innovative technologies and products to fulfill our long-term commitment to the Chinese market."

The fuel system plays an important role in the engine, and the filter is a very important component in the fuel system, which can ensure the normal operation of the injector and the EFI system. With the rapid development of diesel engine EFI technology, the filtering requirements for diesel have also been significantly improved. Not only do small, granular impurities need to be filtered out, a large amount of moisture must also be effectively separated from the fuel. The reason why Weichai chose to cooperate with Man Hummer for a long time is precisely because of the high quality filters it developed to meet the stringent requirements of the fuel system.

As early as 2003, Man Hummel began to develop high-quality filters for the Weichai Power WP10 and WP12 engines that meet Euro III emission standards, including diesel filters, oil filters and crankcase ventilation systems. One of the earliest suppliers to jointly develop Euro III engines with Weichai.

Diesel Water Separation Filters PreLine 420/2 and PreLine 421 are the key products developed by MANN+HUMMEL based on its PreLine pre-filtration system for Weichai. The PreLine 420/2 has a very high oil-water separation capability and the water level sensor provides an alarm function. Compared to traditional PreLine filters with clear plastic cups, the PreLine 421 is an all-metal enclosure that is less prone to leakage and is also well suited for use in cold and high temperature areas. In addition, MANN+HUMMEL also successfully developed the WDK 11 102/4 fuel oil filter assembly as a premium product that can effectively remove fuel impurities with a separation efficiency of 99%. At present, these products have begun to supply.

It is worth mentioning that Man Humeer's PreLine assembly pre-filtration system uses a new filter material developed by MULTIGRADE. The filter material achieves double optimization of service life and filtration efficiency. Compared with traditional filter media, the use of MULTIGRADE type filter media can significantly improve the water separation performance. Even with a large amount of water added, it can still maintain a water separation efficiency of more than 93% and has extremely high reliability.

Man Hummel is a global leader in the manufacture of filter systems for automotive and construction machinery. In meeting Euro III standards, its filter technologies and products have many outstanding performances, including: nanofiber filter media, long-acting fuel filters with glass fiber filter media, and graspable A fuel filter that retains tiny particles to extend the life of the engine.

As one of the largest internal combustion engine manufacturers in China, Weichai Power actively develops and produces products that meet international emissions standards. In order to meet Euro III emission standards, Weichai Power's engines employ high-pressure fuel common rail technology, which places very high demands on the fuel system.

It is understood that the Weichai leading products WP10 and WP12 diesel engines have reached Euro III emission standards. In 2008, Weichai also successfully developed Blue Engine, which met the national five emission standards, again reaching the leading level, and has successfully exported to European, Asian and African markets.
