Dirty fuel is a fact of life. Even with the development of cleaner-burning fuels, contaminants are still a major concern when it comes to fuel systems.
Baldwin Filters offers more than 650 different fuel filters, fuel managers, coalescers and fuel/water separators to protect your engine.
Even with the development of cleaner-burning fuels, contaminants are still a major concern when it comes to fuel systems.
Baldwin fuel filters protect sensitive fuel system components, such as injection pumps and injectors, from damaging contaminants, which include:
• Water - destroys lubricative properties of your fuel, damaging fuel system components and resulting in fuel flow stoppage at cold temperatures.
• Fungus and Bacteria - plug fuel filters, feed on hydrocarbons and spread rapidly in the presence of moisture.
• Precipitates (non-combustible materials) - settle out of the fuel causing few problems.
• Particulates (black, tar-like contaminants) - plug fuel filters quickly.
• Wax - adds energy to diesel fuel; however, during cold weather, wax thickens and gels - slowing or stopping fuel flow.
The use of a fuel filter designed for your equipment will reduce your engine's exposure to these contaminants.
