TVH has jumped on the environmental bandwagon by offering Donaldson soot filters for forklifts.

Environmental laws in Germany and the Netherlands require soot filters to be installed on diesel forklifts (Forkliftaction.com News #282). The UK and Belgium would soon follow suit, a TVH statement said.

The Donaldson soot filter, mounted on the counterweight or the roof, comes with replaceable filter cartridges. Exhaust fumes pass through the filter cartridge, which stops most of the diesel soot content. Lights indicate when the filter is full. Under normal operating conditions, the filter cartridge is replaced every 300 hours to 400 hours.

The cellulose cloth cartridge, the heart of the filter, can withstand 320-340 degrees Celcius temperature.

Forklifts with power higher than 50KW (80hp) need two filter cartridges.

Donaldson Company Inc. headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, is a global filtration systems provider.
