MANN‑FILTER Air Filter C 23 440/3 – For Utility Vehicles

The MANN‑FILTER Air Filter C 23 440/3 is a premium, high‑performance air filter designed specifically for utility vehicles such as vans, trucks, and commercial chassis. It delivers exceptional protection against dust, dirt, oil mist, and other contaminants while maintaining optimal airflow to the engine.

Key Features

• Advanced Filtration Technology: Utilises a multi‑layer media system that captures particles as small as 0.5 µm with an efficiency of up to 99.9 %. The filter’s design ensures long service life even in harsh operating conditions.
• Optimised Airflow: Engineered to minimise pressure drop, the C 23 440/3 allows the engine to breathe freely, preserving fuel economy and performance.
• Durable Construction: The filter housing is made from high‑strength polypropylene, resistant to abrasion, impact, and chemical exposure. This guarantees reliable operation in dusty or oily environments.
• Easy Installation: Fits standard MANN‑FILTER mounting brackets used on most utility vehicle models. No special tools are required; the filter can be swapped quickly during routine maintenance.
• Compatibility: Designed for a wide range of Mercedes‑Benz, MAN, Iveco, and other commercial chassis including T2/LN1 vans, Kasten Kipper Kombi 809 D + DK, and similar models. The filter size (C 23 440/3) matches the original equipment specifications.

Performance Benefits

The C 23 440/3 delivers a cleaner air stream to the combustion chamber, which translates into:

• Improved Engine Efficiency: Cleaner intake air reduces engine wear and improves combustion stability.
• Enhanced Fuel Economy: By maintaining optimal airflow, the filter helps keep fuel consumption at its lowest possible level.
• Reduced Emissions: A well‑filtered air supply contributes to lower exhaust emissions, aiding compliance with environmental regulations.
• Extended Engine Life: Protecting the engine from abrasive particles reduces internal wear and prolongs service intervals.

Installation Guide

1. Prepare the Vehicle: Park on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and disconnect the battery for safety if required by your vehicle’s maintenance procedure.
2. Remove the Old Filter: Locate the air filter housing. Open the cover, release any clips or screws, and carefully lift out the worn filter.
3. Inspect the Housing: Clean any debris from the filter chamber with a dry cloth to ensure proper sealing of the new filter.
4. Insert the C 23 440/3: Place the new filter into the housing, aligning it with the mounting tabs. Ensure that the filter is seated fully and evenly.
5. Secure the Cover: Replace the cover, tighten any screws or clips, and verify that the seal is intact.
6. Reconnect Power (if disconnected): Re‑attach the battery terminals.
7. Test Drive: Start the engine and listen for any abnormal noises. Check for proper airflow by feeling the intake air temperature; it should be cooler than before the replacement.

Maintenance Tips

• Check the filter every 10,000 km or as recommended in your vehicle’s service manual.
• If operating in extremely dusty environments, consider inspecting the filter more frequently to avoid pressure drop.
• Always use a genuine MANN‑FILTER product to guarantee compatibility and performance.
