The Ultimate Centrifugal Fuel/water Separators can be installed on the pressure side and/or the suction side of the existing dispensing fuel pump and are sized based on the flow rate of the pump. This schematic shows pressure side application.

 

This schematic shows suction side application.

 

On-board Primary Fuel Filter

The Ultimate Fuel / Water Separators installed on the suction side of the existing fuel pump and becomes the primary fuel filter.

Ultimate Fuel / Water Separator

Two Step Filtration Process

The systems uses both centrifugal force and absorption to remove the water and solids from the fuel. Step 1: The fuel enters the housing and hits a stainless steel baffle which causes the fuel to spin around and around (Centrifugal force); the free water and heavier solids settle to the bottom of the housing to be drained off. A sight glass in provided to help view the presence of water and contaminates in the settling area. Step 2: The fuel continues through the holes in the stainless steel baffle and is filtered through a cellulose depth-type filter. The filter can absorb free and emulsified water. Clean fuel then exits the housing. You can expect longer OEM filter life, longer injector life, longer engine life, higher engine performance, fewer emissions, and often times better fuel economy. Filters available in 3, 7, or 15-micron.

Products

Ultimate Fuel / Water Separators available in Carbon Steel and/or 304 Stainless Steel heavy duty housings. All housings have bolt down covers to make is easy to service the filter element. Systems can be installed on the suction side or pressure side of an existing fuel pump. Pump and motor systems are also available. Large variety of sizes and flow rates to handle low volume or high volumes of fuel. Manifolded piping systems can be assembled to operate independently or in parallel.
