No matter how carefully gasoline and diesel are refined and handled, contaminants will find their way into fuel during transfer and storage. Water is an engine's primary enemy and can condense directly from air during normal day/night heating and cooling cycles. The presence of water facilitates microbial growth, which leads to fouling, increased corrosion, and damage to fuel system components. Additionally, rust particles and chips from corroding tanks and piping, as well as air-blown silica and dirt, can lead to clogged filters, reduced combustion efficiency, and even engine failure. Racor Filter Carts are portable field service maintenance tools that help to ensure the performance and reliability of modern diesel and combustion engines by removing water and contaminants that often make their way into fuel during handling, transfer, and storage. The carts serve as an invaluable preventative maintenance tool and are ideal for use with generator sets that have integrated base tanks or day tanks, where fuel has been stored long-term and may have degraded from water and particulate contamination. Racor offers two models of portable fuel filtration carts: FC-10-01 CLEANDiesel Filter Caddy – The FC-10-01 is used to clean fuel that has been stored in small fuel tanks for extended periods of time. Typical applications are generator base tanks, generator day tanks, and small bulk storage tanks up to 2,000 gallons. Racor Filter Caddys are fully portable and self-contained. They include the FBO-14 fuel filter, which does not require any tools for filter change-outs and offers replacement filter options for various applications.
