The Racor Division of Parker Hannifin Corp. introduced the FBO fuel filter/water separator. Available in two sizes, the FBO is designed for high-flow applications from 10 to 75 GPM, as a primary fuel filter/water separator on diesel engines or for bulk fuel handling and transfer. FBO assemblies can also be used on mobile refueling units.
Features of the FBO fuel filter/water separator include a locking ring collar that rotates the bowl assembly for easy maintenance and filter changes, a die cast aluminum head and a steel filter bowl, manual drain and vent valves, a sight glass and Viton seals for compatibility with various fuel types. The assembly is offered with a choice of a water separator, silicone treated filter or a water absorber to meet specific filtration needs and a wide selection of accessories, including an optional electric heater.
