Facet SM-33FD-5 FD-Grade High Flow Long Service Fuel Water Separator Element

Product Overview

Facet SM-33FD-5 belongs to the SM-series high-flow FD durable separation category. Compared with other FD models such as SM-29FD-5 and SM-30FD-5, this element is optimized with a larger effective filtration area and open fiber structure, ensuring unobstructed high-flow fuel passage while retaining excellent water separation and anti-clogging capabilities.

The whole filter media undergoes professional permanent hydrophobic modification, maintaining stable water-repellent performance under long-term high-flow fuel scouring and effectively preventing fuel secondary emulsification. The integrated integral epoxy end cap sealing eliminates bypass filtration and dead filtration zones, while the thickened reinforced inner support structure resists pressure impact and media deformation under high-flow operating conditions. Balancing high flow efficiency, long operational lifespan and economical cost, SM-33FD-5 fills the demand gap for high-throughput and low-maintenance filter elements in the SM series.

Working Principle

SM-33FD-5 adopts Facet’s mature high-flow adaptive hydrophobic separation mechanism:

1. High-flow fuel mixed with free water droplets and fine solid impurities passes through the primary coalescer and flows radially from inside to outside.

2. FD-grade durable high-flow fiber structure efficiently intercepts all free water and fine contaminants without blocking fluid passage.

3. Qualified dry jet fuel, diesel and light hydrocarbon media pass through the filter layer rapidly with ultra-low pressure drop.

4. Captured water droplets aggregate on the media surface, form large water masses and settle by gravity to complete efficient fuel-water separation.
