The Vortex® MAX is a high-airflow powered pre-cleaner that pre-cleans and filters dust and debris from engine intake air, ensuring only clean air makes its way downstream to the machine engine. The Vortex® MAX, capable of up to 900 CFM (25.48 m3/ min), can replace two to three XLRs without the use of a plenum or airbox, simplifying installations and reducing start-up costs associated with a powered engine pre-cleaner.

How it Works: The Sy-Klone Effect

The separation and ejection of debris, and high-efficiency filtering, all of which precleans air, is The Sy-Klone Effect.

  • Dirty air enters the precleaned housing through the inlet end
  • The debris-laden air is directed into a rotation – a “Vortex” – pushing the debris to the outside walls through centrifugal force. The debris rotates towards the outlet end
  • Debris is ejected through the ejection port, and the fine dust that remains passes through Sy-Klone’s self-cleaning filter
  • After passing through the high-efficiency filter, clean air is passed downstream to the engine and engine air filter through the outlet end

Benefits and Features:

Maximize Clean Air Downstream to the Engine

  • Proprietary powered precleaning technology, combined with high-efficiency filtration

High-Airflow System

  • Up to 900 CFM (25.48 m3/min) from a single unit provides protective power of clean air for wide range of machines

Reduce Total Cost of Ownership, Improve Productivity

  • Provide sustained, clean air flow regardless of the machine’s operating state, even in idle
  • Minimize downtime and maintenance costs
  • Reduce dirty air downstream, which can abrade engine components and damage exhaust and aftertreatment systems
  • Extend life of primary engine filter and engine, meet maintenance intervals

Versatile Installation Options

  • Available in 12V and 24V configurations
  • Compact size and footprint with variable mounting configurations
  • Less expensive and easier installation as compared to multiple unit smaller airflow systems
