Fuel Water Separator Alarms alert when water is detected in the fuel system, preventing engine damage. These alarms trigger warnings to prompt immediate drainage of contaminated fuel. They are critical for maintaining fuel purity and ensuring optimal engine performance.

Key specifications and technical properties of Fuel Water Separator Alarms and Fuel Systems:

Size: Typically ranges from 2 to 12 inches in diameter, depending on application.

Grade: Complies with ISO 4020, SAE J1839, and API standards.

Viscosity: Suitable for fuels with viscosities between 1.5 to 6 cSt at 40°C.

Buoyancy: Float-based sensors with specific gravity adjustments for water detection.

Material: Housing made of aluminum, stainless steel, or composite polymers; seals from nitrile or Viton.

Filtration Efficiency: Removes 95-99% of free water and particulates above 10 microns.

Operating Pressure: 10-150 psi, depending on model.

Temperature Range: -40°C to 120°C for standard units.

Alarm Type: Visual, audible, or electronic signal when water reaches threshold (typically 80% sensor immersion).

Connection Type: NPT, BSP, or SAE threaded ports.

The Fuel Water Separator Alarms and Fuel Systems may comply with maritime standards such as IMO SOLAS, USCG, or ISO 15540, but specific compliance depends on the product's certification and testing. Always verify with the manufacturer for exact standards met.
