Filter Technology

EleMax and "Seeing is Believing Technology"

Advantages
- High efficiency and high capacity filtration
- Three layers of incremental micron sized StrataPore™ filter media increases contamination capacity increases filtration efficiency

Superior Water Separation
- The fuel processor with the EleMax filter is designed for the suction side of the fuel system, ensuring better water separation
- StrataPore™ is unlike cellulose that, over time, results in reduced water separation efficiency
- Emulsified water collects at the bottom of the fuel processor body when the engine is turned off

Features
- Patented vapor relief valve and half wrap: The patented filter half-wrap and calibrated vapor pressure relief valve are integral parts of the filter assembly, ensuring maximum filter life and reduces fuel system restriction
- Filter Change Level: Change the EleMax filter element when the fuel level reaches the top of the filter
- Micron Rating Identifies the micron rating of the EleMax filter
- StrataPore ™ Media: Three layers of patented laminated melt blown media inherently strips emulsified water from the fuel and increases dirt holding capacity

Clear Cover on top
- See when the filter is ready to be changed: Reduce waste by using the full capacity of filter.
- Extended filter change intervals based on useful filter life instead of mileage or calendar date
- Easily diagnose fuel problems by simply looking at the fuel inside the clear cover.
  - Fuel temperature issues
  - Air leak in between fuel tank and lift pump
  - Loss of prime
- Easily prime the fuel system by adding fuel up to the top of the filter through the vent cap port on the top of the clear cover.
EleMax Filter
- The EleMax filter design reduces fuel system restriction, strips water from fuel and filters to specified micron ratings.

Water condenses in fuel tanks
Water + sulfur create corrosive acidic environment
Water reduces lubricity of fuel
Water accelerates the growth of microbes; microbial waste adds to acidity of fuel
Water decreases efficiency of fuel
Water increases oxidation

Biodiesel blends, because of their inherent solvent property can dissolve accumulated sediment
Biodiesel blends contain surfactants that can emulsify water droplets
Biodiesel blends can increase microbial growth

Particles such as soot, dust, rust, and noncombustible metallic material (also called “ash”) cause component wear from abrasion and heat
Particles contribute to formation of carbon deposits
Particles clog injector nozzles, altering injector spray patterns and causing poor combustion

Asphaltenes are a normal by-product of fuel oxidation, look like a black tar, and result in incomplete combustion
Asphaltenes degrades fuel lubricity
Asphaltenes create lacquer build up and deposits of hard materials that shorten pump and engine life
