Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What machines does the AML8-24-04066 air filter fit?
A: The AML8-24-04066 is an air filter compatible with Tennant floor scrubbers M20, M30, and some M40 models. This filter protects the solution pump motor from dust and debris. Check your equipment manual or filter housing dimensions to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Q: What are the specifications of the AML8-24-04066?
A: The AML8-24-04066 measures 4 inches in diameter by 3.5 inches tall. The intake connection is a 1.5-inch slip-fit collar. The pleated media provides 120 square inches of filtering surface. Airflow capacity is rated at 35 cubic feet per minute at 0.5 inches of water column restriction.
Q: How often must the AML8-24-04066 be replaced?
A: Replace the AML8-24-04066 every 200 to 400 operating hours. In dusty warehouse and dock environments, replacement every 200 hours prevents motor starvation. In light commercial settings, 350 to 400 hours is typical. A clogged filter reduces solution flow rate and causes the solution pump to overheat.
Q: What is the AML8-24-04066 made from?
A: The AML8-24-04066 uses a pleated polyester microglass media glued to a rigid plastic end cap. The filter body is molded polypropylene. Polyester resists moisture better than paper and does not swell or collapse when exposed to cleaning solution vapor. The rigid caps ensure the filter maintains its cylindrical shape under motor suction.
Q: Can the AML8-24-04066 be washed and reused?
A: The AML8-24-04066 cannot be effectively cleaned or washed. Once pleated media becomes saturated with dust, washing does not restore full airflow. Reusing a partially clogged filter starves the solution pump motor of cooling air, causing permanent damage. Always install a new AML8-24-04066 when replacement is due.
