Turbine Series

900FH and 1000FH
Fuel Filter/Water Separators

Turbine Series filters protect 

precision engine components 
from dirt, rust, algae, asphaltines, 
varnishes, and especially water, 
which is prevalent in engine fuels. 
They remove contaminants from 
fuel using the following legendary 
three stage process: 

Stage 1 - Separation

As fuel enters the assembly, it 

moves through the centrifuge and 
spins off large solids and water 
droplets, which are heavier than 
fuel, and fall to the bottom of the 
collection bowl. 

Stage 2 - Coalescing

Small water droplets bead-up on 

the surface of the conical baffle 
and cartridge filter. When heavy 
enough, they too fall to the bottom 
of the collection bowl. 

Stage 3 - Filtration

Proprietary Aquabloc

®

 cartridge 

filters repel water and remove 
contaminants from fuel down to 
2 micron (nominal). Aquabloc 
cartridge filters are waterproof 
and effective longer than water 
absorbing filters.

Instruction Part Number 12960 Rev E
