摘要: A fuel filter constructed and arranged with a heater designed for fuel-water separation includes unitary housing (casting) which has an open top to be closed by threaded lid base in combination surrounding sidewall defines interior space. cartridge including element, centertube, bottom endplates is disposed the space such that there water collection between endplate of housing. The plurality snap-fit fingers annular array press-on attachment endplate. ring provided within positioned around cartridge. provides both flow path entering positive-temperature-coefficient stones assist heating fuel. Control connector thermostat combination. senses temperature near provide circuit when exceeded. drain valve mounted communication operated manual lever controls movement spring-biased plunger. water-in-fuel sensor extends into deriving conductivity readings.
