The Racor Filter Element R12P is a replacement fuel filter from the Racor brand, part of Parker Hannifin Corporation. This filter is specifically designed to remove water, dirt and other contaminants from diesel or petrol fuel, with a focus on higher flow rates and robust performance.

Key features of the R12P:

1. Micron rating:
   • The "P" in R12P stands for a 30-micron filtration value, ideal for primary fuel filtration (pre-filtration). This helps to remove larger particles and water from the fuel without restricting flow.
2. Compatibility:
   • Designed for Racor's Spin-On Series, such as the 120R Series fuel filtration systems.
3. Aquabloc® Media:
   • A filter media that effectively repels water and filters dirt from fuel, while resisting diesel and petrol fuels.
4. Thread size:
   • Standard thread size of 1"-14 UNS, ensuring easy installation.
5. Applications:
   • Widely used in marine, vehicle and industrial applications where reliability and fuel cleanliness are crucial.

Advantages:

• Water separation:
  • Reduces the likelihood of water-related problems such as corrosion or injector damage.
• Suitable for high flow rates:
  • The 30-micron rating allows the filter to handle larger amounts of fuel without significant pressure drop.
• Easy replacement:
  • Spin-on design makes installation and replacement easy.

Use and maintenance:

R12P is especially suitable for high fuel consumption engines where fuel quality is critical. It is important to perform regular maintenance and replace the filter according to the manufacturer's recommendations, especially in environments with heavy contamination or high humidity.
