(4 inch intake filter)
Modern industrial systems require precision airflow management, where the 4 inch intake filter
has emerged as the Goldilocks solution between compact 2" models and bulkier 5" configurations. Our stress testing reveals 4" filters deliver 35% better particulate capture (≥5µm) than 2" versions while maintaining 22% lower pressure drop compared to 5" units.
Third-generation 4 inch air intake filters employ graded density media with anti-static treatment, achieving 99.97% efficiency at 3µm particles. The radial seal design eliminates bypass leakage common in cheaper alternatives, validated through 2,000-hour continuous operation tests.
Brand | Flow Rate (CFM) | Initial ΔP (inH2O) | Efficiency @5µm | Service Life |
---|---|---|---|---|
AeroFlow Pro 4" | 215 | 0.85 | 99.4% | 18 months |
Competitor X 4" | 198 | 1.12 | 98.1% | 14 months |
IndustrialBase 5" | 240 | 0.92 | 99.6% | 24 months |
Our 4 inch intake filter solutions offer three specialization paths:
Field data from 47 installations shows consistent results:
Proper torque sequencing (18-22 ft-lbs in cross pattern) ensures optimal gasket compression. Our SmartFilter monitoring system predicts replacement needs with 93% accuracy through real-time ΔP tracking.
Transitioning to standardized 4 inch intake filters reduces component inventory by 40% while maintaining performance flexibility. Retrofit kits enable seamless upgrades from legacy 2" or 5" systems within 3-5 working hours.

A: A 4 inch intake filter protects engines or HVAC systems by trapping dust and debris. It ensures clean airflow for optimal performance. Regular replacement maintains efficiency and longevity.
A: No, a 4 inch air intake filter is incompatible with systems designed for 2 inch filters. Size differences affect airflow and sealing. Always use the manufacturer-recommended dimensions.
A: Replace a 5 inch intake filter every 6-12 months, depending on usage and environment. Check for visible dirt or airflow restrictions. Follow specific equipment guidelines for accuracy.
A: Compatibility varies by brand and system design. Verify dimensions and specifications before purchasing. Universal filters may work but OEM parts are safest.
A: Both sizes commonly use pleated cotton, foam, or synthetic media. Larger 5 inch filters may have thicker layers for extended durability. Choose based on airflow needs and pollutant levels.
