Cummins Filtration releases new fuel filter

摘要

Cummins Filtration, a division of Cummins Inc., has introduced the Fleetguard~R FF5782 fuel filter with nanotechnology-based filtration media.The company says that this is the first of its kind for fuel filtration. The FF5782 was developed specifically to meet the high-performance demands of Cummins QSK high-horsepower engines.With field-testing over a three-year development cycle, this latest in the Fleetguard fuel product line has been developed to deliver protection and improved uptime for customers. Trapping 98.7% of all particles as small as 4 microns, the FF5782 exhibits 13 times greater retention of particles during fuel surge and engine vibration than its closest competitor, claims Cummins. Fuel surge results from the fluctuation of fuel flow due to the increase and decrease in the engine output.
