Accessories Water Probe Kits Racor offers a wide selection of water probes, each designed for use with particular models and installation requirements. These probes are available in various configurations to fit every Racor filter/separator. The water probe is only a component in the water detection system and will not work without a Racor electronic detection module (see next two pages). The RK30880 has the electronic detection module built-in to its design and has the simplest installation procedure. Multiplex units must use one probe for each collection bowl but only one water detection module is needed. T-handle Vacuum Gauge T-handle vacuum gauges are available to monitor element condition and as the filter element slowly becomes clogged with contaminates the restriction (resistance to flow) increases. The fuel pump still tries to draw fuel (suction) but because of this restriction less fuel is delivered to the engine and instead more air is pulled from it (fuel de-gassing). These results can cause the engine to lose power and eventually stall. By installing a vacuum gauge in your fuel system (at the outlet side of the Racor filter) visual monitoring of element condition is possible at a glance. At the first indication of decreased performance,note the dial reading or apply the ‘red line’ decal provided with most kits. This will assist in knowing when to change the filter at the next interval. T-handle Vacuum Gauge. Specifications RK11-1969 RK11-1669 Description 500FG units only.

Special Notes: For severe vibration applications,mount the gauge on a stable, remote location and connect to the source using flexible tubing. After September 1999, Racor converted many liquid-filled gauges to new silicone dampened movement. This new (dry) technology provides a vibration resistant design that never leaks fluid or requires adjustments due to temperature or altitude variations.
