2. RamAir Aeriform Cleancharger Filter System

2.1 RamAir versus Paper Filter
Nearly all cars now come fitted as standard with a paper type air filter, why ?
Well mostly owing to the costs of a paper filter, it's very inexpensive to produce & let's not forget, cars are produced in their millions – so every penny saved boosts profits. The most obvious disadvantage with paper, is that the filter media is just that, paper. As we all know, paper does not like to be exposed to water / humidity. The instant that the paper media becomes damp it's efficiency as an air filter reduces drastically. Yet RamAirs' Aeriform material is unaffected by moisture – namely owing to it's unique polymer oil. All RamAir filters carry a limited lifetime warranty , which means that they are guaranteed against manufacturing defects for as long as the original purchaser owns the vehicle.

2.2 RamAir versus Cotton Filters
All RamAirs' C.E.filters (Car Elements) are manufactured using Aeriform technology which means that every single air filter has variable stage air filtration. Each filter is constructed in three different grades of foam to ensure maximum air filtration , unlike cotton/gauze filters. Cotton air filters have only one grade of filter media, which means that once this becomes contaminated with particulates the air flow quickly deteriorates. Laboratory tests have proven that RamAirs' Aeriform filter media will outlast all cotton gauze filters.

2.3 Daily street usage with airbox
To fulfil these customer' s requirements RamAir has developed the Aeriform Cleancharger Replacement Filters. They are made to replace the standard paper or cotton airfilter inside the airbox. Our patent Aeriform Cleancharger Filter material in combination with polyurethane sealings creating a Cleancharger filter which can easily replace the factory or cotton airfilter.

The concerned motorist is mainly interested in

- protecting his engine
- extend the lifetime of his filter
- guarantee maximum airflow for best power output
- providing high airflow over a longer filter service interval
- protecting the environment by reducing constant "throw away" paper-filter change
- easy DIY filter service

2.4 Racing and Performance kit Development
Normal engines for street use have airboxes. One of the reasons for this, is noise reduction. To generate maximum airflow race engines (with carburettors or fuel injection system) are normally designed with straightened airflow systems to guarantee the maximum amount of oxygen to improve combustion performance.

In the past, race engineers used special airflow designed rampipes with our filters to avoid loss of airflow (and power). Over time, engine protection( and durability) became extremely important so
RamAir started to develop the known Aeriform Cleancharger Performance Filtersystems. This is designed to replace the airbox system and supply the volume of air (and oxygen) needed to guarantee the maximum output and at the same time the engine is well protected against debris and small broken car parts caused by rough racing activities.

We have used this experience to design 360 degree filter elements to replace the airbox and supply the maximum air required. These kits are individually developed for a specific model and type. The kits come with all fitting parts requested and full diy fitting instructions.

2.5 O.E.
RamAir has the ability and indeed the right team to liase with O.E. manufacturers and has the technology and capabilities to deal with various quantities required. Two very important customers who choose RamAir year after year are Aston Martin & TVR. Whatever your requirements RamAir will deliver.
