Applications
API qualified coalescers are required in the jet's fuel supply and delivery system.

Racor Hydrocarbon Vessels - equipped with API Coalescer Products (ACP) Series coalescers and companion separator cartridges - have been tested and qualified to API Bulletin 1581.

We can supply coalescers and separators in vessels flowing 125 gallons per minute up to 1,200 gallons per minute.

Products
Racor's API qualified coalescers feature mutli-layered media and a fibreglass coalescing shell. This unique combination of media allows us to offer one of the industry's most efficient coalescers available, offering a low initial pressure drop and long life. Racor's API coalescers offer 50% more media than the competition.

Racor manufacturers API coalescer cartridges to fit most industry vessels. Please contact us for cross references, dimensions and cartridge specifications.

How They Work
Racor Hydrocarbon API Coalescer Cartridges utilise the finest available filtration fibreglass, which results in maximum water coalescence. The fibreglass shell design results in large, uniform water droplets which will drop immediately to the vessel sump. The coalescer shell combines with multi-layer pleated media to offer superior coalescence and dirt holding capacity.
