Filter freshens fuel supplies
The Racor Filter Funnel allows visual inspection of the integrity of a fuel supply during refuelling.
The Racor Filter Funnel allows visual inspection of the integrity of the fuel supply during refuelling for owners and operators of motor boats, turf maintenance and agricultural equipment, generators and a wide variety of other internal combustion engine powered applications Dirt and water are almost unavoidable in stored fuel, causing microbial growth, corrosive acids, electrolysis and rust

Highest accuracy from portable particle counter
The latest in a globally proven range of portable particle counters, LaserCM provides a 6 channel model that uses laser light as a development to the standard 'white light' CM20.
These contaminants can plug filters, corrode components, decrease efficient combustion and can cause engine shutdown or system failure.
These refuelling problems can be combated by passing fuel through a Racor Filter Funnel (RFF) every time fuel is transferred from one container to another.
The RFF is a heavy-duty, fast flow, filter-in-a-funnel that separates damaging free water and contaminants from gasoline, diesel, heating oil, kerosene and jet fuels.
Featuring an integral Teflon-coated stainless-steel filter, the RFF will remove free water and solids down to 0.127mm.
Three sizes are available to handle fuel flow rates of 10.2, 14.7 and 18.9 litre/min, respectively.
The RFF family of products is manufactured from corrosion resistant industrial grade black electroconductive polypropylene.
Carbon powder is injected into the plastic so that the funnels will conduct static electricity, the grounding capability of the RFF being an important safety feature. Request a free brochure from Parker Hannifin - Filter Division ...
