AIR INTAKE SYSTEMS

What’s that? Your mining trucks are exhibiting a reduction in power, slower acceleration, and increased fuel consumption? Well, you can breathe easy. DBA Silencing’s air intake components can likely resolve these issues for you by helping your trucks breathe better. Our air intake systems outperform the alternatives across the board, but they excel to a particularly notable degree when the following yardsticks are employed.

1. Configuration

DBA air intake parts are typically lighter than the OEM units they replace. This makes them easier to install, and also translates to less strain on the vehicle as a whole. You can learn more about the myriad benefits of DBA air intake design by reviewing our blog post “3 Reasons To Use DBA Air Intake Systems On Your Mining Trucks“.

2. Discount Level

DBA’s air intake units put smiles on the faces of mining firm accountants and owners. This is because our air intake systems and our individual air intake components are downright inexpensive when compared to OEM equivalents and other aftermarket offerings. We touch on this topic, if you’re interested, in our blog post “Diesel Air Intake Systems In Mining Trucks“.

3. Longevity

Our mufflers and exhaust components are known throughout the mining industry for their durability. They are exposed to blisteringly high temperatures, however, and so they do need to be swapped out periodically. Our coolant and air intake systems, on the other hand, aren’t subjected to such taxing conditions and we’ve seen a number of cases where an air intake system was used on multiple vehicles because the trucks wore out and the DBA components endured. This sturdiness is the result of several factors. First: our air intake parts are hand-made by experienced welders. Second: we utilize high-grade aluminized steel and top-quality industrial coatings. Third: every unit we ship has been scrupulously inspected by trained members of the DBA team who ensure that all dimensions are within acceptable tolerances. Air intake components also undergo pressure tests. Our blog post “Quality Control In Heavy Mining Equipment” contains more information about our procedures.
