Core offering

Enginaire Clean Air Systems manufactures and distributes centrifugal air precleaners, air cleaner canisters, and Cabaire cab pressurization units for diesel and gas engines powering mobile and stationary equipment in extreme, dusty conditions. The company also designs custom full air intake kits for OEM engine packagers and offers specialty fire equipment and supporting adapters and accessories.

Product overview

Enginaire Clean Air Systems is a hardware-focused manufacturer offering a comprehensive portfolio of air intake and cab pressurization solutions for diesel and gas engines in mobile equipment operating in dusty environments. The product portfolio centers on two core offerings: Air Precleaners (aluminum, composite, and stainless steel centrifugal precleaners using spinning rotor technology to separate contaminants) and Air Filtration Systems (plastic and metal air cleaner canisters including Twist Lock TL Series, FW Series, VLR Integrated, EN Series, and ME/LV Custom series). The Cabaire cab pressurization line offers self-contained filtration units with three tiers (CF, APC, ICP) and multiple filter options (MERV 16, HEPA, activated charcoal) to protect operators from silica dust and hazardous particles. Supporting products include adapters, accessories, and specialty fire equipment. The company merged with Australian BreatheSafe in April 2023 to form AireSafe International.

Brands

• Cabaire™: Self-contained controllable cab pressurization unit with multi-stage filtration designed to keep enclosures clean and operators safe, including models RD, PO, S, and EL with Constant Flow (CF), Automatic Pressure Control (APC), and Intelligent Cab Pressurization (ICP) technology tiers.
• AireSafe International

Products and services

• Air Precleaners Patented centrifugal precleaners using a spinning rotor to separate up to 95% of airborne contaminants from incoming air before it reaches the engine. Available in aluminum, stainless steel, and composite materials with airflow ranges from 3 to 2000+ CFM and lifetime warranties.
• Twist Lock TL Series Air Cleaners Tangential filter housings with the Magna Seal Twist Lock cap for compact design and easy servicing. Filters are removed with a low-profile twist lock cap held internally by six locking pins, eliminating external latches, with airflow to 310 CFM and 99.9% contaminant removal.
• UL Approved Flame Retardant TL Air Cleaners UL-tested flame retardant canisters and elements for gaseous-powered engines that may backfire, acting as spark arrestors to prevent fires. Designed for engines with spark arrestor requirements.
• FW Series Plastic Air Cleaners High-strength polymer air cleaners with airflow to 1100 CFM, mountable vertical or horizontal, available with or without safety element for various engine applications.
• VLR Series Integrated Air Cleaner/Precleaners Integrates the patented centrifugal precleaner into the air cleaner canister with 360-degree axial airflow entry. Offers lower initial restriction than standard air cleaners without a precleaner due to axial rather than tangential flow design.
• EN Series Heavy-Duty Metal Air Cleaners Metal air cleaner canisters for medium to extreme environments with airflow to 1100 CFM, available in a wide range of sizes with dual or primary-only elements.
• Metal ME, LV, In-Line and Custom Air Cleaners Heavy-duty metal air cleaners including ME series (up to 1600 CFM), LV Large Volume VLRs (above 1600 CFM with integrated precleaners), in-line designs, and custom OEM-fabricated air intake kits delivered under single part numbers.
• Cabaire Cab Pressurization Systems Self-contained controllable cab pressurization units with multi-stage filtration (MERV 16, HEPA, activated charcoal) for enclosed operator cabs. Available in three tiers — Constant Flow (CF), Automatic Pressure Control (APC), and Intelligent Cab Pressurization (ICP) with data logging — to protect operators from silica dust and hazardous particles.
• Adapters Complete range of mounting brackets, rubber and metal adapters, flange adapters, clamps, elbows, and tubing for connecting precleaners and air cleaners to various engine configurations.
• Accessories Dust load indicators, raincaps, VLR retro kits for converting standard air cleaners to VLR systems, precleaner screens, and debris shields.
• Fire Equipment Specialty fire suppression equipment including air precleaners with spark arrestors, stainless steel Cabaire pressurizers, Extractaire three-stage filtration systems, and scuba/turnout gear dryers.
