Donaldson Introduces Space-Saving PowerCore® Edge
Donaldson Company, Inc. recently introduced the PowerCore® Edge, a compact, high-efficiency engine air cleaner for use in heavy dust environments. Released at CONEXPO-CON/AGG in March, this new filtration device is specifically designed to fit into tight under-hood spaces in off-road equipment and offer easier servicing than previous generations of air cleaners. Donaldson PowerCore air cleaners have been meeting the demanding specifications of on- and off-road equipment manufacturers for 20 years, delivering continuous improvements in filtration technology and packaging flexibility. Bringing the smallest footprint yet to the PowerCore filter line, PowerCore Edge offers front-service access for easy filter changes, a unique seal design with heat tolerance up to 100°C, and can fit either vertically or horizontally into tight engine compartments – solving the space constraint needs of today’s equipment manufacturers. “The widespread adoption of large, heat-emitting emissions control devices means less under-hood space is available for components like engine air cleaners, and under-hood temperatures are higher,” said Al Hovda, general manager of Donaldson Engine Air Systems. “PowerCore Edge responds to these demands and still delivers the high dust-holding capacity and filter life that have distinguished PowerCore filters for the last 20 years.” PowerCore Edge is also easier to maintain on the job. In a multi-stage air cleaner, an integrated pre-cleaner removes the heaviest dust before it can reach the primary filter. Because pre-cleaners can clog in the most extreme off-road conditions, Donaldson designed the pre-cleaner on the PowerCore Edge to easily separate into 2 pieces to allow for fast and easy cleaning. In heavy dust or debris laden off-road environments, OEMs may choose to add a scavenge vacuum system for more efficient removal of dust and debris from the pre-cleaner. When a scavenge system is used, PowerCore Edge improves serviceability by allowing the scavenge line to remain in place while servicing the pre-cleaner or the primary filter. PowerCore Edge also offers improved pre-cleaner performance in non-scavenged applications.

PowerCore Edge air cleaners can be smaller due to Donaldson’s PowerCore G3 media pack, which delivers all the filtration capability of a conventional pleated air filter in 65% less space. This innovation continues the Donaldson-led trajectory toward increasingly smaller, more powerful media technology that has defined the PowerCore filter line and enabled Donaldson to respond to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) engineering requirements.
