FAUDI Aviation filter/water separators are designed to be compliant with procedural guidelines, applicable legal regulations and requirements of the pressure vessel regulations (AD2000, ASME, and others).
Filter/water separators consist of two-stages designed to remove free water and particulates from aviation fuels at refineries, terminals, fuel depots, tankers, hydrant dispensers and other mobile refuelling equipment. Filter/water separators are intended for use in commercial aviation fuel (defined as category C), military aviation fuel (defined as category M) and military aviation fuel with an additive for thermal stability (defined as category M100).

Microfilters are used as pre-filters for the efficient and continuous removal of solids such as rust, sand and other particulates from aviation fuels. FAUDI Aviation microfilters are used in refineries, terminals and airport depots, primarily as prefilters to lengthen the service life of downstream coalescer elements in filter/water separators. FAUDI Aviation microfilters are highly efficient and thus cost effective due to their large filter surfaces area.
FAUDI Aviation Microfilter are designed to be compliant with procedural guidelines, applicable legal regulations and requirements of the pressure vessel regulations (AD2000, ASME, and others).

Clay Treaters are designed to remove surface active agents (surfactants) from aviation fuels. Contaminants of this kind can be present in the fuel from refinery carry over or from cross-contamination in multi-product pipelines. Clay Treaters are usually installed in front of filter/water separators.
Screen Basket Filters are intended for use in aviation fuels for bulk filtration upstream of microfilters. A Screen Basket Filter consists of a perforated screen basket of carbon steel, stainless steel or other materials, depending on the fuels or gases to be filtered.

Differential Pressure Gauges
The differential pressure gauge is used to measure the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of a filter vessel indicating the filter element condition.
Differential Pressure Gauge for VFH
The differential pressure gauge is used to measure the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of a VFH vessel indicating the filter element condition.
Automatic Air Eliminator
The automatic air eliminator valve consists of a fully welded housing and a float ball made of stainless steel.
Pressure Relief Valve
The pressure relief valve has been provided for the dissipation of thermal expansion. This valve can be adjusted to open at a desired pressure, to vent the overpressure built up in the system due to thermal expansion in a non-flowable condition. The outgoing line should be led without pressure into a slop tank.
Sample Probe
Permits samples to be taken up and downstream of the filter. This ensures that only fuel is removed from the middle of the liquid flow.
Drain Valve
Manually operated ball valve to sample or to drain the vessel. The valve may be provided with a flow rate control which prevents excessive flow rates through the filter/water separator.
