Racor BVFS Series Filter vessels are designed to filter liquid and solid
contaminants from jet fuel, kerosene, diesel fuel, gasoline, aviation gas
and other hydrocarbon based liquids.
These filter vessels utilize proven Racor and Parker Hannifin technology
and may be used as coalescers, pre--filters or dehydrators by changing
internal components, flow direction and using optional filter cartridges
(factory configured). Water removing elements or silicone impregnated
pre--filters may also be used with these vessels. Filtration capabilities
down to 0.5 microns and less than 5 ppm water in fuels are obtainable.
Filter vessels feature single, double or triple length cartridges to meet
customer flow and filtration requirements.
Elements may also be
stacked to meet customer needs. Maximum flow rates of 50, 100 or 150
gallons per minute are possible, depending upon fluids or filter
cartridges.
Additionally, higher flows are possible by multiplexing
(factory configured).
The vessel is fabricated from carbon steel with an exterior primer coating
of Gavlon suede gray and the interior is epoxy coated which meets
MIL--C--4556E.
Accessories include differential pressure gauges, air eliminator, manual
or automatic drain valves and water sight gauges.
Vessels also feature adjustable legs for mounting ease.
