The Filter Boss system dual
diesel fuel filter system that allows on the go switching between
fuel filters. It incorporates an
electric fuel pump and a vacuum gauge. This offering includes a
single Racor 500 fuel filter. Designed for use with
diesel engines with a maximum flow rate of 35 gallons per hour, the FilterBOSS is a modular unit containing a
fuel pump and a manifold designed to allow two filters to be installed (one online and one offline on standby). The vacuum gauge allows monitoring the online filter's condition and indicates when its necessary to switch to the second filter (the higher the readings, the dirtier the filter).
Once switched to the second filter, the FilterBOSS
pump makes it easy to
service the filter and bleed the
engine. It can also help get you back to the
dock by providing fuel to your
engine in the event of a fuel-pump failure. The FilterBOSS also offers the option of
plumbing the system to enable fuel polishing.
Was previously installed on a sailboat with 58 HP
Westerbeke. Excellent condition.
