The Effect of Elbows & Entrance Diameters
on Air Cleaner System Restriction
Air cleaner system design should incorporate the
best protection at the lowest initial restriction 1 2
possible. Because each component contributes to
the total restriction of the system, try to keep the
air cleaner as close to the engine as possible while
eliminating as many elbows and long runs of duct
work as possible.
