MANN-FILTER Air Filter C 16 335 – For Utility Vehicles

The MANN‑FILTER Air Filter C 16 335 is a high‑performance air filtration solution engineered specifically for utility vehicles, including commercial trucks, agricultural machinery, and industrial equipment. Designed with precision engineering and premium materials, this filter delivers exceptional protection against dust, dirt, and other airborne contaminants while maintaining optimal airflow.

Key Design Features

• Optimized Geometry: The C 16 335’s unique shape ensures a low pressure drop across the filter media, allowing engines to operate efficiently without compromising filtration effectiveness.
• Durable Construction: Constructed from robust, corrosion‑resistant housing materials, the filter withstands harsh operating environments and extended service intervals.
• High‑Quality Filter Media: The multi‑layer media combines pre‑filtering layers with a dense core that captures particles as small as 5 µm, providing superior protection for combustion engines.
• Easy Installation: Designed to fit standard mounting brackets on most utility vehicle models, the filter can be installed or replaced without special tools.

Performance Characteristics

The C 16 335 delivers a balance of airflow and filtration that meets stringent emission standards. Its performance metrics include:

• Pressure drop: ≤ 0.8 kPa at full engine load.
• Particle retention: ≥ 99.9% for particles down to 5 µm.
• Operating temperature range: -40 °C to +120 °C.
• Recommended service interval: 12,000–15,000 km, depending on operating conditions.

Applications and Compatibility

The filter is engineered for a wide range of utility vehicles. Common applications include:

• Commercial trucks and delivery vans.
• Agricultural machinery such as tractors, harvesters, and sprayers.
• Industrial equipment including generators, compressors, and HVAC systems.
• Construction vehicles like excavators and loaders.

Its standardized dimensions (C 16) allow seamless integration with existing engine designs across multiple manufacturers. The filter’s compatibility extends to models from major brands such as International Harvester, Case IH, and other heavy‑equipment producers.

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Ensure the vehicle is turned off and cooled before beginning. Disconnect any electrical connections that may interfere with access to the air filter housing.
2. Remove Old Filter: Open the air filter cover, carefully lift out the existing filter, and discard it in accordance with local environmental regulations.
3. Clean Housing: Wipe the interior of the filter housing with a dry cloth to remove dust or debris that could compromise seal integrity.
4. Insert New Filter: Place the C 16 335 into the housing, aligning it with the mounting tabs. Ensure the filter sits flush against the housing walls.
5. Secure Cover: Reattach the air filter cover and tighten all fasteners to the specified torque settings.
6. Final Check: Verify that no gaps or loose connections exist, then reconnect any previously disconnected electrical components.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter regularly for signs of clogging or damage. A clogged filter can reduce engine performance and increase fuel consumption.
• During extreme operating conditions (e.g., dusty environments, high‑temperature operations), consider reducing the service interval to maintain optimal airflow.
• Store spare filters in a dry, dust‑free environment to preserve their integrity until installation.
