Fuel Oil Filter · Fuel Oil Treatment

Technical data from manufacturer or class sources · not yet verified by a person

Filtrex LO-50 is a marine fuel-oil filtration unit. It is normally installed in the fuel-treatment or engine supply system between storage, conditioning and the final fuel consumers. Its primary purpose is to remove solid contamination before fuel reaches pumps, injectors, burners or downstream treatment equipment. Compared with a centrifugal purifier, the filter removes particles by a filtration element or automatic backflushing mechanism rather than density separation. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
