The WIX 8-1/2" x 6-11/16" OD air oil separator is engineered to enhance air quality by effectively separating oil from compressed air. This separation process helps in reducing engine wear by preventing oil contamination within the intake system. It is designed to minimize maintenance intervals thanks to its high dirt-holding capacity. The WIX separator improves engine performance by maintaining an optimal air-to-fuel ratio, which in turn protects internal components and contributes to extending the lifespan of its engine system.
