Racors’ new FBO-10 and FBO-14 filter assemblies are designed to meet the toughest hydrocarbon refuelling conditions and provide for ease of filter change outs. The FBO Assembly can flow at 95 lpm or up to 230 lpm depending on the model, the elements installed and fuel being filtered. FBO Filter Assembly Standard Design Features • Die-cast aluminium head • Steel filter bowl assembly • Powder coated components • Locking ring collar, no clamps • 1 1/2“ NPT Inlet and Outlet • 10 bar @ 240° F max. design pressure • Manual drain valve • Manual vent valve Options • Mounting bracket • Sight level gauge • Pressure diff. indicator Installations • Aviation fuel trucks • Aviation fuelling cabinets • Diesel fuel dispensing system • Marine fuel docks • Fuel systems on large diesel engines Applications • Jet fuel, aviation gas, diesel fuel, gasoline, kerosene, JP4, JP5 and JP8. FBO Filter Vessels The FBO assembly can be used on mobile refuellers or installed in refuelling cabinets. The unit can also be used for diesel fuel dispensing pumps or as a primary fuel filter/water separator for large diesel engines. The assembly features a locking ring collar, which attaches the filter housing to the aluminium die-cast filter head with four bolts. The slotted locking ring collar allows maintenance personnel to handloosen the four collar bolts, rotate and lower the bowl assembly for element change outs. With new element installed, simply raise the bowl and rotate into position on the locking ring and hand-tighten evenly. The closure hardware consists of stainless steel nuts, bolts and washers with metal hand knobs for ease of maintenance – one person can easily change the filter element. No special tools are required. The versatile FBO-10 and the FBO- 14 filter assemblies have three element options to meet most field applications. For refuelling applications the filter separator element is used. The filter separator element removes contaminants and water from jet fuel, aviation gas, diesel fuel, gasoline and hydrocarbon fuels. 22
