An Introduction
Intr

Since the foundation of the company in 1941, the name MANN+HUMMEL has been
synonymous with superior quality filtration products. Even at that time, the
development, production and sale of filters and filter elements for the automotive
industry was the company’s main area of activity. This is still true today because
high product quality and the innovative skills of MANN+HUMMEL employees have
always been the main features of our company.

Now, they form the basis for the The rise from one of the industries leading
international success of the filter manufacturers to becoming a
MANN+HUMMEL Group. A large recognised systems supplier for the
number of newly developed products automotive industry was ultimately the

Centrifugal force is capable of removing
a wide range of particles extending into
the sub-micron range. Analysis of the

The Environment

Environmental concern for the safe

and efficient disposal of all engine
waste products is growing worldwide.
Legislation in many areas dictates that
previously ignored scrap components
must now be recycled to save the
world’s non-replenishable natural
resources. Already, disposal of oil filter
elements in landfill sites is prohibited
in many US states; similar legislation
is being introduced in Europe and
other areas of the world.

The contaminant removed by the

centrifuge passes the US Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure known
as TCLP. All MANN+HUMMEL centrifuges
are designed to remove contaminant that
is almost free from oil and that can be
disposed as harmless waste.

Many of the technologies used by engine

manufacturers to reduce harmful exhaust
emissions increase the level of soot in the
lubricating oil. MANN+HUMMEL by-pass
centrifuge technology has been proven to
have the ability to remove large amounts
of harmful combustion soot and therefore
allowing the manufacturer to achieve
future emission reductions in line with MANN+HUMMEL continues to develop its oil conditioning technology to meet
worldwide environmental legislation without both the technical and environmental requirements current and future within
compromising service intervals. the many markets in which we operate.
