What is an RCI Technologies Purifier?
The RCI Technologies purifier is
a simple one step unit that removes 100% of the free water and 95%
to 98% of dust, dirt, and other normal and natural contaminates
found in all diesel fuel. Even today's "clean" diesel fuel will
easily become contaminated during transportation and storage.
Unlike all other products on the market, the RCI Technologies
purifier performs this function without the use of a replaceable,
changeable, or cleanable filter element, cartridge, or bowl. By
removing contamination immediately before the fuel enters the
engine's filter system, the purifier delivers cleaner fuel,
(virtually eliminating filter clogging) and therefore greatly
extending maintenance intervals.
How does the RCI Technologies Purifier
work?
The RCI Technologies purifier is a
unique product utilizing a three-stage purification process using
two well-known fuel separation principles, centrifugal and
coalescence. By using these two principles, water and other
contaminates are separated from the fuel. This eliminates fuel
filter clogging, related breakdowns, down time, and frequent filter
replacements.
As the fuel enters the purifier, it flows
downward in a circular movement through an internal baffle system
entering the lower chamber of the purifier.
1st Stage:
In the first stage of purification, the velocity of the fuel slows
down considerably, allowing any free water droplets and other
contaminates to maintain their mass and not emulsify with the fuel.
These impurities accumulate and remain at the bottom of the purifier
until purged.
2nd Stage:
In the second stage of purification, the fuel migrates through three
perforated baffle plates to stop any particulates and attract, by
way of coalescence, any water droplets still remaining.
Final Stage:
In the final stage of purification, the fuel passes through our
patented coalescence medium to assure that any small water droplets
or particulates will be coalesced out of the fuel stream. Only the
clean fuel rises to the top, providing a cleaner burning fuel for
quicker ignition and better combustion. Consistent clean fuel helps
to increase the engine's dependability, power, and efficiency.
On the FP 50, FP
80, FP 400 and FP 700, a heating element is optional to
preheat the fuel. This process helps liquefy the paraffin providing
better lubrication for the entire fuel system including the pump and
injectors. This heating element eliminates any wax or gelling
problems.
The RCI
Technologies purifier is simple to install, and provides
The Permanent Solution to fuel system management and control.
RCI Technologies also offers an optional water sensor kit with an
alarm signal indicating purging is required.
