PetroClear PCW-E30 30 Micron Filter Replacement Elelment is particulate removing and water sensing replacement element type filters which offer efficient 30 micron nominal particulate removal (nominal = 75% efficiency). The filter is designed to remove particulate and to sense both free, emulsified and slow flow as an indicator of the presence of water in neat gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, ULSD (Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel), kerosene and fuel oils. The filter will nither sense or react to water in ethanol blended fuels nor detect phase separation should it occur in ethanol blended fuels.

Note: The water-sensing filter is not a fool-proof mechanical positive shut-off. If this filter remains in service after going into slow flow it can return to full flow, allowing contaminated fuel to be dispensed into the consumer's vehicle and cause potential damage.

Not to be used in aviation fuel applications.

Features

  • The PetroClear® model PCW-E10 utilizes a 10 micron (nominal) cellulose super absorbent media to remove particulate and sense water in neat gasoline, Diesel fuels, Biodiesel and ULSD (Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel), kerosene, lube oils, fuel oils, and synthetic fluids. Removes particulate 10 microns (nominal) or larger.
  • The PetroClear® model PCW-E30 utilizes a 30 micron (nominal) cellulose super absorbent media to remove particulate and sense water in neat gasoline, Diesel fuels, Biodiesel, ULSD (Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel), kerosene, lube oils, fuel oils, and synthetic fluids. Removes particulate 30 microns (nominal) or larger.
  • The maximum flow rate for PetroClear® models PCW-E10 and PCW-E30 is 30 gpm (114 lpm). Maximum operating pressure is 50 psid (3.4 bar). Collapse pressure is 150 psid (10.3 bar). Maximum operating temperature is 250°F (139°C).
  • PetroClear® models PCW-E10 and PCW-E30 replacement elements fit the Cim-Tek® Centurion Series housings and other brands with a 5" x 9" element.
