21398815 Air Cleaner | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

The unit has an approximately 102 mm outlet, 267 mm maximum body diameter and 228 mm body length, providing primary filtration and intake-noise control in one replaceable assembly.

⚙️ Key Features

• Genuine Volvo Penta complete air-cleaner assembly
• Approximately 102 mm outlet diameter
• Approximately 267 mm maximum body diameter and 228 mm length
• Provides intake filtration and acoustic attenuation
• Engine type: Turbocharged marine or industrial diesel intake system

🔌 Function

Removes dust and airborne contamination before air reaches the turbocharger and engine, while the housing also reduces intake noise and supports the designed airflow path.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• High intake restriction or reduced engine power
• Visible contamination or damage to the filter media/housing
• Collapsed, wet or oil-saturated filter element
• Dust tracking downstream of the cleaner
• Cracked housing, loose outlet connection or damaged mounting points

🛠️ Service Notes

• Never run the engine without the air cleaner in place — unfiltered air wears the bores and, on a turbocharged engine, will damage the compressor
• Check the element seats squarely and that the cover fasteners or clamps pull the seal down evenly all round; air that bypasses the filter does the same damage as no filter at all
• Inspect the intake hose, clamps and joints between the air cleaner and the engine for splits and looseness whenever the filter is serviced
• Do not wash or beat out a paper element to stretch its life; fit a clean element at the interval given for your engine and duty
• Keep the intake drawing the cleanest, driest air available, and make sure any dust ejector or drain is clear and positioned so it can discharge
