Products / Parker / Filters Separators and Purifiers / Replacement Cartridge Filter Elements – Racor FBO Series
FBO Series Replacement Cartridges are designed for use with FBO Filtration Assemblies. They are available as water separators, silicone-treated particle removers, and water-absorbing filters, with ratings of 1, 5, 10, or 25 microns.
The FBO filtration assembly can be used on
mobile refuelers or installed in refueling cabinets. The unit can
also be used for diesel fuel dispensing pumps or as a primary fuel
filter/water separator on large diesel engines. The FBO assembly
features a locking ring collar, which attaches the filter housing to
the aluminum die-cast filter head with four bolts. The closure
hardware allows maintenance personnel – even one person – to easily
change out the filter cartridge element.
Replacement cartridges are available in three options:
Coalescer/Separator - Coalescer/separator filters are a two-stage
element that removes water and contaminants from diesel fuel
streams.
Silicone-treated Particulate Filter - Particulate filters remove
contaminants down to 1 micron. They can also be used upstream,
before a water separator filter, to extend filter life.
Water Absorber - Water absorber filters absorb water and filter out
contaminants from diesel fuel.
Markets:
• Agriculture
• Construction
• Power Generation
• Oil and Gas
• Marine
Applications:
• Diesel and Biodiesel (e.g., fuel dispensing systems, marine fuel
docks, mobile refueling units, refueling cabinets, fuel filter water
separators)
Benefits:
• Removes water that enters the system during refueling. 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.
• Available in a wide range of configurations to meet the unique
requirements of customers’ engines, including marine (UL-approved)
versions.
• Locking ring collar allows a single person to easily perform
filter change-outs
