Understanding the need for efficient protection of the fuel system, we have designed filters, which efficiently deal with dirt, effects of container corrosion, metal sawdust and other impurities, which might pose obstacles in proper work of the engine. 

 

Fuel filters play a key role in the fuel system protection.

In the times when car manufacturers tend to apply more and more precise solutions (engine components made with extreme care and precision, fuel injectors working under extremely high pressure) the risk of failure dramatically increases, should any impurities enter the system.

Irrespective of the quality of the fuel, (though best quality is preferred) it will always contain impurities such as: mineral dust, fuel container rust, water particles present in the fuel, organic particles and crystallized paraffin.

Modern diesel engines are particularly prone to impurities.

WIX filters are manufactured in accordance with the recommendations of the engine and vehicle manufacturers, the applied filtration media (depending on the filter type, the media can be based on natural materials and synthetic ones) provide effective fuel filtration and excellent separation of water.

 

We can name many fuel filter types, the most common are spin-on oil filters (either thread screwed-in the head or connected to the fuel pipes), with the casing made of galvanised metal sheets resistant to corrosion and the so-called filter inserts, installed into non-replaceable, disassembled casings being part of the fuel system of the vehicle.

 

Do you know taht?

WIX fuel filters can filter impurities of the size as small as 3μ.
1 μ = 0,0000001 metre.
