Cleaning Fuel Filters

SuperFlow’s high capacity fuel pump system also has high capacity filtration capabilities. The end 
result is that regular cleaning of the fuel filter is necessary to insure consistent fuel delivery. Sure 
signs of a clogged fuel filter are slow priming times for the pump and decreased fuel handling 
capacity during operation. The fuel system’s filtration factor is determined by its 40 micron (0.0015 
inch) capacity filter. This high capacity filter will trap grit, rust, flakes, lint, animal hair and insect 
parts. If you are not testing with highly filtered fuel, your fuel system will have the primary 
responsibility to catch the large quantity of contaminants you may not have realized were even 
present.

To clean the system, remove the filter screen assembly from its canister and wash it using a parts 
washing solvent. Never clean it with carburetor cleaner. After the filter has been cleaned, blow the 
cleaning solution and any remaining particles off of the screen using an air hose. Hold the nozzle 
of the hose at a 45 degree angle and blow air from the outside toward the inside of the filter 
element.

Depending on the source of your fuel, regular cleaning schedules will vary. At the outset, we 
recommend you clean the filter weekly.

Thermocouple Information

SuperFlow utilizes four kinds of type K thermocouples (yellow connector blocks, temperature 
range from 0-1800 degrees F). Each one utilizes two wires to relay the temperature signal.

SuperFlow has recently switched to 0.125” thermocouples for the SF-902 systems. These provide 
faster response times for improved data acquisition. Two types of 0.125" diameter thermocouples 
in a 5" tube length feature either a closed or an open end. Twenty eight gauge wire (0.020" 
diameter) is used in both. If the open end version is employed for measuring air temperatures, you
