Marine Complete Fuel/Water sep. w/ Plastic Bowl, 10 mic

How it works:
Racor Marine Spin-on Series Fuel Filter Water Separators use Aquabloc® media to reliably remove dirt and water from diesel and gasoline. Aquabloc® media is pleated, corrugated, and arranged for high water rejection and long service life. Fuel entering the filter head is diverted downward past the vertical media pleats, allowing larger water droplets and contamination particles to fall directly to the collection bowl. Smaller water droplets converge and coalesce on the specially treated media surface until they are large enough to also drop to the collection bowl. Small contamination particles are stopped at the surface of the Aquabloc® media, while even smaller particles are held deeper in its layers. This results in dry, clean motor fuel being delivered to your engine.

Notes on use:

• Gasoline filters used in an enclosed location should use a metal bowl.
• Clear bowls in gasoline systems are a routine inspection item: Inspect for damage, deformation, and discoloration often, and replace as necessary.
• Heaters and water probes must NOT be used in gasoline
• Gasoline filters available first fit with 10 micron media element only.

Notes on selection:
To ensure selection of the proper Spin-on Series marine filter, follow the steps below:

1. Choose your engine fuel to be filtered; gasoline or diesel fuel.
2. Select total flow rate through the fuel system (gpm or lpm).
3. Choose bowl material. Engineered plastic bowls are only available for gasoline outboard applications.
4. If available, choose or reject hand primer feature.
5. If available, select media micron rating.
6. Choose port size.
7. Select UL Certified or not.

Markets:

• Marine Power Generation
• Marine Propulsion

Applications:

• Diesel and Biodiesel Engines 
• Gasoline Engines

Benefits:

• Offers exceptional removal of water that enters the system through condensation in the fuel tank. Any water present in the fuel stream will support bacterial growth, which can cause clogged filters and result in the formation of corrosive acids. Susceptible components then rust and corrode, leading to erosion and wear of critical fuel system components. 
• Removes hard particles present in air that are introduced during fueling, such as sand and silica. 
• Prevents costly injector damage and increases operational life of downstream filters.
• Saves time and money by eliminating unplanned maintenance and unscheduled downtime from system component failure. 
• High-efficiency Aquabloc® media helps OEMs’ diesel engines adhere to rigid government emission standards.
• UL-listed filters meet ABYC, ASTM, ISO, and many other global standards for filters used in marine engine rooms.
• Corrosion-resistant construction means bowls will not deteriorate from water collection, alcohol blended fuels, exposure to harsh additives, salt spray or UV light.

Features:

• Water-in-fuel (WIF) sensor upgrades are available for diesel applications to alert operators of accumulated water in the bowl.
• Reusable, clear plastic or metal collection bowl with self-venting drain
• Metal bowl units for inboard-powered boats meet 33 CFR and USCG regulations
• Replacement cartridge elements exhibit high dirt-holding capacity and long service life.
• Corrosion-resistant coatings and construction
• Gasket and o-ring materials designed for diesel and gasoline use.
• Ports available: ¼”-18 NPTF, 3/8”-18 NPTF, ½”-14 NPTF 
• Hand primer available on selected models.
