ISO 5011 Certification
Test Stand to compare airflow
of new intake kits to the
stock setup. |

All Halltech Filters are ISO 5011 Certified. The ISO (International Organization for Standardization)
establishes and specifies uniform test procedures,
conditions, equipment and a performance report
to permit direct laboratory performance comparison
of air filters and induction systems. The performance characteristics of greatest interest are airflow
restriction (differential pressure), dust collection efficiency and
dust capacity. The ISO 5011 Standard is important to those that want to
keep their Corvette engine up to OEM standards of 99.4% efficiency for
dust and dirt removal.
The end result is simple: Increased horsepower by reducing the
restriction of the air filter and/or intake kit while still protecting
the engine. Recently Katech Engine Development dyno tested our
Standard, Race, and ISO 5011 Filter and found less than 1 HP difference
on a 620 HP engine, which is considered by Katech the margin of error
between pulls. Katech did not require this certification for their
endorsement, but since they are a Tier 1 Vendor for GM, Halltech made
the decision to use only ISO 5011 Certified Filters for all Killer Bee™ Ambient Air Induction Systems.
How can the Killer Bee™ Filter produce 12 HP more than stock and still have 99.4% filter efficiency? One word: Surface Area. Our ISO 5011 Killer Bee™ Filter is so large that it dwarfs even the K&N Air Charger Z06 filter, and has 100% more surface area than the PowerCore™ filter it replaces.
Testing to these high standards enables us to accurately
measure our products against not only OEM
[Original Equipment Manufacturer] equipment,
but also to the competition, allowing us to
establish the air filter performance benchmark,
which we are determined to do.
ISO is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies. The
work of preparing International Standards
is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. The specific individual International
Standard utilized by S&B and automotive
manufacturers establishes and specifies uniform
test procedures, conditions, equipment, and
a performance report to permit the direct
laboratory performance comparison of air cleaners,
in this case, those used on internal combustion
engines and compressors used in automotive
and industrial applications.

"This standard
is important because it is the
worldwide accepted yardstick for measuring
the performance of filters and intake
kits utilized by all of the automakers."
Halltech™ Filters can be
tested at airflows up to 1,000
cfm with its ISO 5011 Test Stand. |
|
|
|
The
ISO 5011 Test Standard demands rigorous
attention to detail which includes heating
the blankets prior to and after testing
to remove any moisture. |
|
|
|
The ISO 5011 Test Stand is a state-of-the-art
machine utilizing computer controls
to virtually eliminate any margin for
error. |
