Clay Treater Cartridges
[top of page]

Clay Treater Cartridge The primary purpose of clay treatment is to protect aviation fuel filtration systems and jet fuel by removing trace quantities of surface active agents (surfactants), color and additives commonly found in fuel. Facet's specially selected Attapulgus clay greatly resists water saturation and provides maximum surfactant adsorptivity and filtration area found in clay treater cartridges.

Single-Stage Coalescer
[top of page]

Wafer Repack Single-Stage Coalescers Facet wafer repacks, used with Facet HP Series Single-Stage Coalescer Housings, are excellent coalescers or strainers for fuel applications when gross water contamination conditions exist. Heavy solids or certain types of solids tend to either blind off the surface of the repack media and/or compress only the first and second wafers to the point that they will no longer function as a coalescer. With Facet wafer repacks, only the first two wafers need to be replaced when required while the third and successive downstream wafers require fewer change outs since they generally remain relatively free of solids.

21 and 22 Series Fuel-Gard® Monitor Cartridges meet the latest edition of the Institute of Petroleum (I.P.) Specifications and Qualification Procedures - Aviation Fuel Filter Monitors With Adsorbent Type Elements. Facet manufactures the cartridge with layered and pleated, multi-media sections with inner support shells and an outer wrap. A special water absorbent media retains water and the pleats expand. as the maximum water holding capacity is reached, a reduction in flow occurs, indicating the cartridge should be changed. The cartridge is available in two lengths with outside to inside flow designed to allow less than 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/liter) solids and less than 1 ppm of water in the effluent.
