Clean Dry Fuels and Oils with High Performance

These filter housings are versatile housings designed for use with several different high performance Aquacon® and other filter cartridges.

Aquacon cartridges filter out water by chemically locking it into layers of super-absorbent media. Water capacity is as much as 11/2 quarts, depending on the specific vessel and cartridge. These cartridges also effectively filter out dirt, rust and other particulates. (See caution, back cover.)

As an Aquacon cartridge reaches its water-holding limit, the media expands very rapidly and restricts the flow. The pressure drop will rapidly increase, signaling the need to change cartridges.

The VF-61, with ACO series cartridges installed, has become the standard for low flow rate full flow aviation fuel monitor applications.
  • Wide variety of applications
  • Free and emulsified water to less than 5 ppm
  • 1/2 micron particulate removal
  • Provides protection against “slugs” of water
  • Pressure increase signals cartridge change
Notes:
  • For aviation and diesel fuel applications, always install a differential pressure gauge or other means of determing differential pressure.
  • See Data Sheet for Absorbent cartridge (AC, AD) flow rates.
  • See Data Sheet for paper filter (FO) flow rates, synthetic filter (FOS) flow rates.
