Fuel Filtration System
The Filtration / Polisher is designed to circulate and clean fuel stored diesel fuel at critical facilities. Filtration / Polishing has become an important aspect of emergency power reliability:
- Critical facilities store increasing amounts of fuel onsite to assure continuity of operation and this fuel has low turnover in operation.
- As diesel fuel ages, particulates form which can increase the wear on generator engine and boilers parts.
- Fuel storage tanks accumulate water through vapor condensation and this water can encourage bacterial growth.
- Newer diesel engines with improved emissions technology require higher purity fuel to prolong engine life.
The control panel operates the pump on a programmable timed cycle to circulate fuel from the storage tank through the filter and returning to the storage tank. The unit can be operated with a tank selection system to provide filtration for multiple tank units.
