Racor Hydrocarbon Filters’ new FBO-10 and FBO-14 filter assemblies were designed to meet the toughest hydrocarbon refueling conditions and give maintenance personnel ease of filter change outs.

The FBO Assembly can flow 38 lpm or up to 284 lpm depending on the unit, elements installed and fuels being filtered. The FBO assembly can be used on mobile refuelers or installed in refueling cabinets. The unit can also be used for diesel fuel dispensing pumps or as a primary fuel filter/water separator for large diesel engines.

The assembly features a “locking ring collar”, which attaches the filter housing to the aluminum die cast filter head with four bolts. The slotted “locking ring collar” allows maintenance personnel to hand loosen the four collar bolts, rotate and lower the bowl assembly for element change outs. With new element installed, simply raise the bowl and rotate into position on the locking ring and hand tighten evenly.

The closure hardware consists of stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers with metal hand knobs for ease of maintenance. No wrenches or other special tools required.
