Dirty fuel is a fact of life.

Even with the development of cleaner-burning fuels, contaminants are still a major concern when it comes to fuel systems.

Baldwin Filters offers more than 650 different fuel filters, fuel managers, coalescers and fuel/water separators to protect your engine. Even with the development of cleaner-burning fuels, contaminants are still a major concern when it comes to fuel systems.

Baldwin fuel filters protect sensitive fuel system components, such as injection pumps and injectors, from damaging contaminants, which include:

• Water
  • destroys lubricative properties of your fuel, damaging fuel system components and resulting in fuel flow stoppage at cold temperatures.
    
    
• Fungus and Bacteria
  • plug fuel filters, feed on hydrocarbons and spread rapidly in the presence of moisture.
    
    
• Precipitates (non-combustible materials)
  • settle out of the fuel causing few problems
    
    
• Particulates (black, tar-like contaminants)
  • plug fuel filters quickly.

• Wax
  • adds energy to diesel fuel; however, during cold weather, wax thickens and gels,  slowing or stopping fuel flow.

   

The use of a fuel filter designed for your equipment will reduce your engine’s exposure to these contaminants.
