Product Overview
Facet SM-30FE-5 belongs to the SM-series FE ultra-precision micro-separation category. It features a denser, multi-layered fiber structure compared with conventional separator grades, delivering exceptional removal efficiency on trace emulsified water and tiny suspended droplets. This effectively solves common industrial problems such as fuel hazing, pipeline secondary emulsification, and precision instrument corrosion caused by micro-moisture residue.
As an economical high-precision option, SM-30FE-5 adopts professionally cured permanent hydrophobic media to ensure stable water repellency during long-term medium-flow fuel scouring. The integral epoxy sealing structure eliminates filtration bypass and dead zones, while the rigid internal support prevents media deformation under normal pressure fluctuations. Balancing superior micro-water removal performance and cost advantages, this FE-grade element fills the gap between standard economical separators and high-end upgraded SS-series precision elements.

Working Principle
SM-30FE-5 utilizes Facet’s advanced FE-grade fine interception hydrophobic separation mechanism:
1. Fuel containing residual emulsified water and fine impurities flows radially from inside to outside after primary coalescence processing.
2. Ultra-fine FE-grade dense fiber layer accurately captures submicron water droplets that penetrate standard-grade filter media.
3. Only completely dry, qualified fuel smoothly passes through the media with stable low pressure drop.
4. Isolated micro-water particles gradually aggregate into large water masses and settle by gravity to achieve deep fuel-water separation.
