Description
The Radium Engineering universal fuel filter is a perfect match for any application needing high flow and industry-leading filtration. Radium Engineering uses one of the largest filtration elements in the industry. This translates into a long service life and minimum flow loss, making this filter perfect for low and high-horsepower applications. The filter can be completely disassembled for servicing and replacement elements are available. Stainless steel mesh elements can be cleaned and re-used, while the microglass element is more efficient but must be replaced at the end of it's service life. The filter is designed for both carbureted and EFI fuel pressures.
FILTER CONSTRUCTION
All fuel filters are constructed with a 3-piece body that is CNC machined from 6061 aluminum and Type-II anodized for maximum corrosion resistance.The end caps are sealed to the body with FKM O-rings.
The fuel filters come preassembled with the chosen filter element. These filters are compatible with all fuel types including gasoline, diesel, methanol, ethanol, and alcohol blends such as E85. High fuel pressures < 150psi can safely be used with negligible pressure drop.
TYPES
The 20-1220-0X fuel filter is represented with an anodized silver outlet cap and contains a one-way check valve.
Depending on the application, the check valve fuel filter can be used to prevent pressure at the fuel rail from dropping when the engine or fuel pump is turned off. As an example, some fuel pumps do not include a back-flow check valve on the outlet. Another example is some venturi jet pumps operate on the high pressure side rather then on the return side of the fuel system. These examples would result in loss of line pressure when the pump is turned off and could therefor benefit from a check valve fuel filter. Keeping pressure in the fuel rail helps speed the restart cycle of the engine.
