Racor FC201120VKIT Portable Fuel Filtration Cart-FBO

The Racor range of Portable Fuel Filtration Carts are high-efficiency mobile filtration systems to remove water and other contaminants from fuel that may have entered storage tanks during handling, transfer, and storage. The FC-20-1-120V-KIT comes complete with two 25-foot hoses, two 4-foot probes, and one 25-foot power cord (FC-20-1-120V: Order hoses, probes, power cord separately).

No matter how carefully gasoline and diesel are refined and handled, contaminants will find their way into fuel during transfer and storage. Water is an engine’s primary enemy and can condense directly from air during normal day/night heating and cooling cycles. The presence of water facilitates microbial growth, which leads to fouling, increased corrosion, and damage to fuel system components. Additionally, rust particles and chips from corroding tanks and piping, as well as air-blown silica and dirt, can lead to clogged filters, reduced combustion efficiency, and even engine failure.

Racor Filter Carts are portable field service maintenance tools that help to ensure the performance and reliability of modern diesel and combustion engines by removing water and contaminants that often make their way into fuel during handling, transfer, and storage. The carts serve as an invaluable preventative maintenance tool and are ideal for use with generator sets that have integrated base tanks or day tanks, where fuel has been stored long-term and may have degraded from water and particulate contamination.
Racor offers two models of portable fuel filtration carts:

FC-20-1-120V and FC-20-1-120V-KIT Heavy-Duty Fuel Polishing Cart

• FC-20-1 Fuel Polishing carts can process fuel at up to 20 gpm (76 lpm)
• The carts come equipped with 1-inch cam-lock fittings, which allow for for easy connection
• Units also feature an open-frame aluminum design, which affords them a unique combination of mobility, durability, and corrosion resistance
• Like the FC-10-01, the FC-20-1-120V cart includes an FBO-14 fuel filter
• Does not require any tools for filter change-outs
• Replacement filter options for a wide range of applications
• The unit serves as a highly cost-effective way to filter diesel, mixtures of biodiesel, and other petroleum hydrocarbon fluids in storage or transport

Markets:

• Agriculture
• Construction
• Oil and Gas
• Marine
• Power Generation

Applications:

• Diesel and Biodiesel
• Gasoline
• Heating Oil
• Kerosene

Benefits:

• Removes free water in fuel tanks and drums. Free water formation occurs when humid air inside a container or tank cools to the point that water condenses out of the air.
• Removes hard particles (e.g., sand and silica) present in air that are introduced during transfer and distribution.
• Saves time and money by eliminating unplanned maintenance and unscheduled downtime from system component failure.
• Mobile design allows for easy use in the field

Design Features:

FC-20-1-120V and FC-20-1-120V-KIT heavy duty Fuel Polishing Carts

• Up to 20 gpm (76 lpm) flow rate
• Durable aluminum frame construction with drip pan
• Large back wheels with locking front casters
• 1-inch cam-lock connections for service hoses and probes
• Racor FBO 10-micron water coalescing separator
• Filter mounted gauge shows differential pressure for filter element change-out indication
• Sight glass and drain valve to see and remove collected water
• Bypass valve for filter element change-out while in operation or for fluid transfer onl
