Racor 75/1000VMA10 Duplex Fuel Filter (10 Micron, Heat Shield)

Description

Racor 751000VMA10 diesel turbine fuel filter is designed to protect your precious engine components from various contaminants such as dirt, rust, algae, asphaltenes, varnishes and water. This fuel filter can replace Volvo Penta 889280 fuel filter units and will fit Volvo Penta engines: D5A-B TA, D5A-T, D5A-TA, D7A-B TA, D7A-T, D7A-TA, TAMD162C-C, TAMD163A-A, TAMD163P-A, TAMD165A-A and TAMD165C-A.

The Duplex multi-function valve allows filters to be used singularly or together, and allows servicing of one filter whilst the engine is running.

The Racor 75/1000VMA10 diesel filter comes complete fitted with see-through bowls and a set of 10 micron elements. The turbine has a maximum flow rate of 1363 LPH through a port size of 7/8"-14 UNF.

Replacement Racor turbine elements (2020 series) are available to order with various micron ratings. Racor 2020 turbine elements measure 110mm diameter x 249mm high.

The Racor 75/1000VMA10 marine turbine is designed to be fitted on the vacuum side of the fuel transfer pump for maximum efficiency. The Racor turbines work through a three stage process; Separation Coalescing & Filtration explained below.

- Stage One: Water Separation: As fuel enters into the filter assembly, it moves through the turbine centrifuge and spins off large solids and water droplets which fall to the bottom of the collection bowl.

- Stage Two: Coalescing: Small water droplets bead-up along the sides of the chamber and on the element, once heavy enough these too fall into the bottom of the collection bowl.

- Stage Three: Filtration: Algae, rust and dirt are then filtered from the fuel by the Aquabloc element, as the elements are waterproof they are much more effective and long lasting than water absorbing elements.
