Clean Fuel Critical to Engine Performance

Dirty fuel is a fact of life. Even with the development of cleaner-burning fuels, contaminants are still a major concern when it comes to fuel systems.

Baldwin Filters offers more than 650 different fuel filters, fuel managers, coalescers and fuel/water separators to protect your engine.

Even with the development of cleaner-burning fuels, contaminants are still a major concern when it comes to fuel systems.

Baldwin fuel filters protect sensitive fuel system components, such as injection pumps and injectors, from damaging contaminants, which include:

Water – destroys lubricative properties of your fuel, damaging fuel system components and resulting in fuel flow stoppage at cold temperatures.

Fungus and Bacteria – plug fuel filters, feed on hydrocarbons and spread rapidly in the presence of moisture.

Precipitates (non-combustible materials) – settle out of the fuel causing few problems.

Particulates (black, tar-like contaminants) – plug fuel filters quickly.

Wax – adds energy to diesel fuel; however, during cold weather, wax thickens and gels – slowing or stopping fuel flow.

The use of a fuel filter designed for your equipment will reduce your engine’s exposure to these contaminants.
