DNA PERFORMANCE AIR FILTER APRILIA DORSODURO SMV1200 2011-14

DNA AIR FILTER P-AP12SM11-01 for the Aprilia DORSODURO SMV 1200 2011 on

This filter is designed to replace the stock filter without any modifications.

• Installation of the filter must be done by a trained mechanic, following the information that can be found in Aprilia's workshop manual .
• The filtering efficiency is extremely high, 98-99% filtering efficiency.

Filtering efficiency is the amount of "dirt" the filter can maintain (stop) and protect the engine efficiently.
For example the DNA Filter for every 100 grams of dirt that it will receive, it will hold 98-99 grams,
this applies even to fine dirt as small as 5 microns. Compared to the stock filter, only the very best of the stock paper filters can achieve filtering efficiency up to 99% but the air flow is low. Foam filters are lower and depend highly on the type & amount of oil used to oil them.

• The flow of the filter is +30.0% more than the stock paper filter, at 152.9 CFM (Cubic feet per minute) @ 1,5" H₂O Compared to the stock APRILIA paper filter at 117.6 CFM'

This DNA® filter is designed as a High flow filter for road and off road use and requires no further modification.

This DNA High performance air filter is a high quality, next generation, multi-layer cotton gauze, oil impregnated air filter that NEVER needs replacing. As a result the customer receives the best high performance air filter money can buy!

Design & Manufacture
The filter media is made of 4 layers of high quality surgical cotton gauze sandwiched between two layers of epoxy coated marine grade aluminum wire mesh pleated by state of the art electronically controlled machines to assure a very high quality of filtration media. The result of the special design and the hi-tech manufacturing process is a filtration media that has very high flow rates, low restriction, superior dust holding capability and smoothens out the air flow stream.

Special Oil
Oil that is used to impregnate the cotton is a very special grade developed by the DNA R&D department after intense testing and produced by one of the world's best oil companies. This special oil is a very critical part of the filter and has the capability to produce a static charge to the cotton media and attract the entire dust particles that flow towards the filter, even the very fine ones.
