Racor - 490R-RAC-01 - Fuel Water Separator - 10 Micron Filter
Racor’s 490R-RAC-01 Spin on series marine fuel water separator provides maximum protection of modern marine diesel and gasoline engines by effectively removing contaminants from fuel, such as water, silica, sand, dirt, and rust. The mounting head and filter body are protected with a durable electrostatically-applied powder coating for superior corrosion resistance. The unique spin-on filter design is easy to service and features a reusable clear engineered plastic or metal contaminant collection bowl with a self-venting drain or metal plug.
Filters can be mounted on-engine or remotely, and come with hand-operated fuel priming pumps, which allow for easy filter replacement and air purge. When it’s time for service, only the filter element is replaced—the bowl and drain plug are reused. Water-in-fuel (WIF) sensor upgrades are available for diesel applications to alert operators to drain accumulated water from the bowl.
All Marine Spin-on Series Fuel Filter Water Separators utilize Racor’s high-efficiency Aquabloc® engineered media, which repels water and removes solid contaminants from fuel at 98% efficiency of their micron rating. Depending on the product selected, three different micron ratings are available for purchase, including:
30 micron – Ideally suited as a pre-filter to protect downstream filters from excessive contamination. Extends the life of on-engine filters.
10 micron - Captures more contaminants than 30 micron elements, and is more effective at stopping water. Extends the life of the entire fuel system.
2 micron – Provides maximum water removal and filtration and is capable of protecting all modern injection systems, while greatly extending the life of difficult-to-service on-engine filters.
