Filter Vessels
Extensive portfolio of high-quality vessels for filtration and separation of contamination in fuels.
Filter/Water Separator
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 a two-stage system 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).

Microfilter
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 Treater and Sieve Basket Strainer
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.
