Donaldson India Filtration
Systems Pvt. Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Donaldson Company, Inc
(NYSE-DCI), a leading worldwide manufacturer of innovative filtration products
and solutions, today celebrates the grand opening of its new experience centre
in Pune.
Showcasing Donaldson’s
unwavering dedication to innovation, the state-of-the-art facility ushers in a
new era of digitally empowered filtration solutions. The experience centre
provides a unique opportunity for Indian customers to experience live
demonstrations of a range of Donaldson dust collectors along with iCue
Connected Filtration Service, an IoT-based technology to remotely monitor dust
collection equipment performance.
Donaldson iCue Connected
Filtration Service is a new offering for the Indian market, with the capability

trends and relative airflow.

our customers in a unique setting,” added Briseño.
“The iCue technology will
