Embodiments herein relate to vehicle filter monitoring systems and methods. In an embodiment, a filter monitoring system is included having a filter sensor device configured to generate data reflecting a filter condition value of a filter and a geolocation circuit configured to determine a present geolocation of a vehicle. The system can also include a system control circuit configured to generate or receive local contaminant concentration values at the present geolocation, evaluate the filter sensor device data to determine at least one of the filter condition value and a change in the filter condition value, and generate at least one of a maintenance recommendation and a routing recommendation based on the local contaminant concentration values, time spent at the geolocation of the vehicle, duty cycle of the vehicle, the filter condition value, and a change in the filter condition value. Other embodiments are also included herein.

An air cleaner assembly with a restriction indicator (14) includes a housing (12) having an exterior surface around an interior volume. The housing includes a bore (42) extending through a portion of the exterior surface of the housing surrounded by a bore wall (38) protruding from the portion of the exterior surface. A receptacle wall of the housing is disposed around the bore wall and is radially spaced from the bore wall to form a channel (44) between the bore wall and the receptacle wall. A restriction indicator (14) measures a restriction in the interior volume and displays an indication of the restriction. The restriction indicator includes a stem (46) that is at least partially insertable into the bore that engages an inner surface of the bore wall. One or more tabs (52) of the restriction indicator are at least partially insertable in the channel and removably couple to the receptacle wall.

A cleaning module (10) for cleaning a media flow of a first medium contaminated with a second medium that has a housing (12) having an inlet (18) and an outlet (20, 21) and a replaceable filter element (30) arranged within the housing (12). In this arrangement, a flow direction (32) of the media flow is directed through the filter element (30) in the specified installed state against the force of gravity. The filter element (30) has an absorptive and/or adsorptive material (34) for picking up at least a portion of the second medium in the first medium. A filter element for the cleaning module (10) and a filter system (100) having the cleaning module (10) are disclosed.

A system includes an electronic fuel injection system of an engine, the electronic fuel injection system including an electronic governor control unit for controlling various functions of the engine.

Aspects herein include filtration systems with multitiered data exchange capabilities. In an embodiment, a filtration system with multitiered data exchange capabilities is included. The system can include a first data communication tier including a filter element, the filter element storing data, and a first sensor. The system can include a second data communication tier including a reader device in communication with the first sensor. The system can include a third data communication tier including an engine control unit (ECU) in communication with the reader device, wherein the ECU stores data. The second data communication tier receives data from the first data communication tier and the third data communication tier. The second data communication tier executes operations on the received data to create a processed data set. Further, the second data communication tier sends the processed data set to the third data communication tier. Other embodiments are also included herein.
