General:
The Marine Diesel Spin-on Series feature
a variety of compact sizes to fit most installations and cramped engine
compartments.
Mounting Heads:
These units feature multiple fuel ports
and many have more than one inlet or outlet. All have a unitized
mounting bracket. The 200 and 400 Series heads feature a built--in, hand
operated fuel priming pump to simplify servicing procedures.
Filters:
All units feature spin--on replaceable
filters and contaminant collection bowls except for the high-pressure
110A. All units may be specified with an in--bowl water probe when used
with diesel or kerosene applications. High-capacity Aquabloct
filter elements stop water and remove solid contamination. A 10 micron
filter (or secondary and even final) is used to filter fuel which is
known to be of good quality. A 2 micron filter, used with the 120Rmodel,
(or final filter) is the finest filtration available and is the last
filter used prior to engine ingestion. A simple rule to remember
is the finer the filtration, the more frequent the filter change. (Carry
extra filters on board).
Reusable Collection Bowls: The metal
bowls used with these models feature an NPT tapered thread plug for
removing contaminants. An optional UL. Listed shut--off drain valve may
be ordered to simplify servicing.
Options
--Available for Diesel fuel systems only.
Water Probe RK21069. When used with a Water Detection Module, the
operator can be alerted of a high--water condition, even while the
equipment is operating. The bowl is then drained of water at the
earliest convenience. Note: A Water Detection Module is needed to work
with this probe. See Accessories. Water Probe RK30880. Same features as
above, except the 12 or 24 vdc electronic detection module is built--in
the probe housing. Includes a detachable connector. See Accessories.
Danger! Do not use water probes with
gasoline applications. This could cause an explosion.
SELECTION
1. Are there any space limitations in the available
location? The location should provide
adequate space for removing the element, draining off
contaminants from the bowl (and operating
the primer pump on 200 and 400 Series models).
2. What filtration rating is needed? 2, 10 or 30 micron?
3. What options are needed? Water probe and/or a bowl
shut--off drain valve?
