Parker Velcon AQUACON ACO Series Aviation Fuel Monitor Cartridge - 5 in. OD

Patented Aquacon Filter catridges have a unique high-capacity inner absorbent medium which removes all free and emulsified water from hydrocarbon fuels down to less than 5 ppm in the effluent. Absorbed water is chemically locked into this medium.

When a cartridge reaches its water holding capacity, its accordion pleats swell and cause an increase in the differential pressure which signals the operator to change the cartridge.

Solid contaminants are removed by the cartridge's particulate filter media layers. The pleated accordion style design provides a large surface area for maximum dirt holding capacity. Models are offered for particle filtration down to 1/2 micron size with 98% plus efficiency. Performance is not affected by the presence of common surface active agents.

Note: 1/2 micron rated Aquacon cartridges are recommended for use with jet fuel and avgas. Effluent fuel quality meets requirements for El1583 7th edition.
