Green truck using DAVCO Technology

Filters for DAVCO Fuel Processors

DAVCO recommends using only EleMax filters because of their:

· Patented vapor relief valve and half wrap
· Easy to see filter change level
· Use of three layer StrataPore ™ media for improved dirt holding capacity

Seeing is Believing® Technology

DAVCO’s patented clear cover top telegraphs filter health continuously:

· See when the filter is ready to be changed. Reduce waste by using the full capacity of filter.
· Extended filter change intervals based on useful filter life instead of mileage or calendar date
· Easily prime the fuel system by adding fuel up to the top of the filter through the vent cap port on the top of the clear cover.
· Easily diagnose fuel problems by simply looking at the fuel inside the clear cover:
· Address Fuel temperature issues
· Air leak in between fuel tank and lift pump
· Loss of prime

EleMax Filter Element

Advantages of EleMax Filters:
· High efficiency and high capacity filtration
· Three layers of incremental micron sized StrataPore™ filter media increases contamination capacity increases filtration efficiency


Superior Water Separation:
· The fuel processor with the EleMax filter is designed for the suction side of the fuel system, ensuring better water separation
· StrataPore™ does not\experience reduced water separation efficiency over time
· Emulsified water collects at the bottom of the fuel processor body when the engine is turned off

Three Layer Filter Technology

· Ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) requires water separation above what conventional media provides.
· When sulfur is removed from diesel fuel, it loses its lubricity. Synthetic lubricants are added, but these increase the ability of fuel and water to combine (low interfacial tension).
· Low interfacial tension between ULSD and water causes water droplets to break apart and pass through to the engine with fuel instead of dropping to the lower chamber of the fuel processor.
· To fully separate the fuel from the water, contamination is filtered, then water droplets are separated from fuel in the coalescing layer.
· The fuel reaches a final layer with super-hydrophobic material, which allows fuel to pass through and blocks dissolved water.
· The result is a higher percentage of fuel moving to the engine than traditional fuel filtration technologies.
