| Racor’s 345RC Series Fuel Filter/Heater/Water Separators are specifically designed to handle todays tough fuel system problems. These units feature a standard high efficiency coolant heat exchanger to heat incoming fuel and are designed for suction (vacuum) side installations; however, the unit may be installed on the pressure side up to 30 PSI maximum. The die-cast aluminum mounting head features standard 3/8” NPTF fuel ports and the coolant heater features hose beads to accept standard 5/8” I.D. hose. Additionally, the coolant heat exchanger may be rotated 360o for installation versatility simply by loosening the center cap at the top of the unit. Either coolant port may serve as the inlet or outlet.
Engines will benefit from near 100% water separation and fuel filtration with Racor’s proprietary Aquabloc®II water repelling media. The replaceable spin-on filter elements are available in three micron ratings: 2, 10, and 30. Always keep extra replacement elements on hand as one tank of poor quality fuel can clog a filter.
The reusable clear contaminant collection bowl allows the operator to check contamination build-up at a glance. When water is present, rotate the drain valve open to evacuate contaminants.
Optional Accessories
In-Bowl Heater: Besides the standard built-on head coolant heat exchanger, a powerful 12 or 24 vdc 200 watt in-bowl heater option is available to quickly warm the element fuel thus providing easier starting and optimum operating efficiency in cold weather or climates.
Water Sensor Probe: When used with a Racor Water Detection Kit, the in-cab module will alert the operator when it’s time to drain the bowl. Note: electrical accessories are not intended for use with gasoline applications.
