Turbine Fuel Filter / Water Separators
Description
Scintex offers two types of diesel water separators which are equivalent to the Racor 1000FH and Racor 500FG. The Racor and Griffin elements are also interchangeable and can be used with these filters. Great for boats, yachts, marine and other vehicle fuel filtration.
Turbine Diesel Filter & Water Separator
Turbine Series filter assemblies are designed to be installed on the vacuum side of the fuel transfer pump for best efficiency and protect precision engine components from dirt, rust, algae, asphaltines, varnishes, and especially water, which is prevalent in engine fuels. They remove contaminates from fuel using the following three stage process:
Stage 1 - Separation: As fuel enters the filter assembly, it moves through the centrifuge and spins off large solids and water droplets which fall to the bottom of the collection bowl.
Stage 2 - Coalescing: Small water droplets bead-up on the surface of the conical baffle and cartridge element. When heavy enough, they too fall to the bottom of the bowl.
Stage 3 - Filtration: Water rejecting cartridge elements repel water and remove contaminants from fuel down to two micron (nominal). They are waterproof and effective longer then water absorbing elements.
The 1000FH takes 2020 elements, SM for 2 Micron, TM for 10 Micron & PM for 30 Micron.
The 500FG takes 2010 elements, SM for 2 Micron, TM for 10 Micron & PM for 30 Micron.
See here for compatible replacement filter elements.
