Filtration Racor - Parker Hannifin France SAS - #20

Text version of the page

The precision components necessary for the efficient operation of an alternative fuel system demand superior filtration. The solution – the industry’s first and most complete line of alternative fuel filter/coalescers and prefilter/ strainers. From pipeline to engine – Racor fuel filter/coalescer products provide the ultra-fine filtration required by alternative fuels. Protecting the fuel injectors and components of an alternative fuel system is vital to efficient vehicle operation. Racor offers the most complete line of fuel filter/coalescers and prefilter/strainers for on-vehicle applications. These filters ensure removal of damaging aerosol contamination as small as 0.3 to 0.6 micron and exceed 95% efficiency, depending on the grade of element specified. Units are available in a range of pressure ratings and are constructed of aluminium, stainless steel or painted steel. The fuel filter/coalescer elements are produced by a patented process of arranging microglass fibres into a tubular form. During operation, fuel is forced through the coalescing media from the inside of the cartridge through the tubular wall to the outside, where the large droplets fall to the bottom of the housing. Oily water emulsion accumulates until drained while the dirt particles remain trapped on the surface of the fibres. Today’s alternative fuels – compressed natural gas, liquid natural gas and liquid propane gas – have the same problems that plague diesel and gasoline… contamination that collects during handling, water that condenses in tanks and compressors that leak oil into the fuel stream. Prefilter/Strainers Engineered and precisely manufactured to provide superior performance at operating pressures up to 500 psi, the compact, in-line prefilter/strainers are an essential first step in a complete filtration system. Low Pressure Fuel Filter/Coalescers Low pressure coalescers are ideal for operating environments up to 500 psi. All aerosol contaminants in the 0.3 to 0.6 micron range are filtered to an efficiency level that exceeds 95%. High Pressure Fuel Filter/Coalescers These patented coalescing filters are constructed to withstand operating pressures to 3600 psi. These coalescing filters remove over 95% of aerosols in the 0.3 to 0.6 micron range. Engineered Modules/System The combination of high pressure filters, regulators, fittings and brackets into one module allows manufacturers to specify one part number. CNG and LPG Filtration 20
