Locomotive Engine Filtration
AAF International developed the AmerKleen line of diesel engine intake filters and housings in conjunction with EMD in 1970. Since the 1970’s, the majority of locomotives delivered in North America have been equipped with the AmerKleen bags and housings. The first locomotive to travel 1,000,000 miles before a major overhaul was equipped with AmerKleen bags.
AAF AmerKleen bags are the only bag approved on the OEM level by both EMD and GE. We supply several of the Class 1 railroads in the US as well as regional, transits, shortlines, the marine market and the stationary diesel generator market.
AmerKleen Cartridge
Low resistance, cartridge air intake filters for locomotive and marine applications.
AmerKleen M-80 Filter
An excellent prefilter which utilizes Viscosine for enhanced filter efficiency and dust holding capacity for low pressure drops.
Tubular Duct Mute
The AAF Tubular Duct Mute, is an acoustically effective cylindrical silencer using an absorptive annular flow design to provide high attenuation with minimum associated pressure loss.
Chamber Mute
The AAF Chamber Mute is an acoustically effective cylindrical silencer utilizing reactive design to ensure maximum attenuation with a minimum pressure drop.
ASC Intake System
The Augmented Self-Cleaning (ASC) Intake System combines inertial seperation with self-cleaning air filtration in one compact package.
