Wabco 4325000210 Inline Filter

Description

This Wabco Inline Filter is a critical component within air brake systems, designed to remove contaminants and ensure clean, dry air reaches the braking components. It is commonly used in commercial vehicles and trailers to protect sensitive pneumatic equipment. The filter effectively removes particles ranging from 80 µm to 140 µm, maintaining optimal system performance and extending the lifespan of air brake components. It features M16 x 1.5 port threads, operates effectively within a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, and is designed for flow in both directions. This filter adheres to OE specifications and has dimensions of 88 x 60 x 87 mm. Its MPN is 4325000210.

Key Features & Benefits

This filter basically cleans the compressed air that goes to your brakes. It takes out things like water, oil, and dirt – anything that shouldn’t be going into that system. It’s a pretty simple device, but it does a crucial job. Most will have a replaceable filter element inside, sometimes a spin – on type like an oil filter, sometimes a cartridge you swap out. They also usually include a drain valve so you can get rid of any accumulated moisture. Think of it as a gatekeeper for your air brakes. The air compressor creates the air pressure, but before that air actually powers the brakes, it needs to be clean. The inline filter sits in the air line, between the compressor and the brake components, doing just that. It's part of a larger system, of course, with things like air dryers, but this is a key first line of defense.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, air brakes rely on clean, dry air. Water and contaminants can cause corrosion inside the system, freeze up in cold weather, or just gunk things up. That can lead to brake failure, and nobody wants that! It acts like a shield protecting everything downstream. You’ll notice if this filter gets clogged – brakes might be slow to engage, you’ll get reduced braking power, or you might even get warning lights. They’re relatively inexpensive to replace, and doing it regularly is way cheaper than fixing major brake damage. You can find a good selection of them at places like Fixparts Online, and they usually list what vehicles each one fits. It’s a small part, but it makes a big difference to safety.
