Unfortunately, this is not the case across the board & is mostly marketing.Purolators website says 99% at 20 Microns.
And that's based on the huge PL30001 per their website. But, their spec sheet says the PL30001 is 99% @ 25 microns. Close, but that's not 20 microns. So that's a discrepancy.Purolators website says 99% at 20 Microns.

It’s like their advertising department has collective Tourette’s. Never can be quite sure what’s going to come out of their mouths (or keyboards).There seems to be a big variance in efficiency throughout the PurolatorOne lineup. Most spec sheets are 99% at 30 micron. The PL14615 is 26 micron. The PL14459 is 40 micron, and now we have one at 17 micron.
That's the spirit! I can go take a coffee break now...Where's the Purolator/M+H Spec Sheet?
You're all hot on "Spec Sheets" ... so why not make it a standard for all claims?That's the spirit! I can go take a coffee break now...
Lol.You're all hot on "Spec Sheets" ... so why not make it a standard for all claims?
Maybe you should ping your M+H contact and see what the Spec Sheet actually says for this claimed 99% @ 17 microns PL14006. Would be interesting, yeah?

It would be real interesting to see the "Official Spec Sheet".I will give the OP the benefit for now to contact them but if they aren't interested I will do exactly what you suggest.
I’m thinking with the time you spent writing this ^^ comment you could have emailed [email protected]I'm thinking if Purolator had a PureONE that was 99% @ 17u, then they would use that specific filter model as their efficiency claim reference filter on their website instead of the PL30001, which is shown as 99% @20u on their website, but 99% @ 25u on their Spec Sheet (shown in post 8).
The tech rep that responded to my follow-up email actually addressed this:There seems to be a big variance in efficiency throughout the PurolatorOne lineup. Most spec sheets are 99% at 30 micron. The PL14615 is 26 micron. The PL14459 is 40 micron, and now we have one at 17 micron.
