New Atmus filter media increases particle retention

Filtration and media solutions provider Atmus Filtration Technologies Inc. has launched the NanoNet N3 filtration technology. Manufactured in-house, the gradient mesh structure media features an increased particle retention capability and higher capacity design, which the company said can provide enhanced asset protection and a longer product life.

Because the new media is designed for greater contaminant holding capability, it allows Atmus to optimize the size of a filter, increase service intervals or a combination of both. This flexibility offers OEMs a customized filtration solution that meets their unique needs.

“NanoNet N3 is the most advanced filter media made to date and enables filtration solutions to be fine-tuned to meet each customer’s application or commercial requirements, whether that is advanced engine protection, custom packaging sizes or specific service life needs,” said Greg Hoverson, vice president and chief technology officer at Atmus.

NanoNet N3 expands on Atmus’ existing nanofiber technology. This advancement combines microfibers and nanofibers to create a single, fully polymeric web of filter media. The unique filter web is designed to deliver longer lasting, more compact filtration solutions to address the growing variety of fuels and contaminants in internal combustion-powered equipment.

Fleetguard, the leading product brand of Atmus, will begin offering filters using NanoNet N3 in early 2025.
