Donaldson Helps Solve Complex Filtration and Contamination Control Challenges
As one of the largest global providers of unique filtration technologies and high-quality filters and parts, the Donaldson Company helps solve some of the world’s most complex filtration and contamination control challenges.
According to the company, fuel filtration is an integral part of the complete fuel system. Modern engines are increasingly requiring better fuel filtration technology to ensure delivery of the cleanest fuel to the engine’s fuel system, as contaminated fuel can lead to vehicle downtime and costly repairs to the engine through expensive fuel system components.
In this issue of Truck & Bus News, Donaldson answers some common questions on ensuring adequate fuel filtration and system protection.
Q: Where should I install additional filtration?
A: We recommend that additional filtration should be considered as the primary filter and installed before the factory filter, which should be retained as originally fitted. It can be fitted in any location that offers easy access to view the water collection bowl and to change the filter. Most modern vehicles employ a return loop fuel system, where fuel is delivered to the factory fitted filter. The engine draws what it requires, and the rest returns to the tank. By installing additional filtration before the factory filter, all the fuel in the tank is being continually filtered. Leaving the fuel system from the factory filter to the engine unaltered minimising any effect on sensitive engine management systems. This also ensures that the fuel reaching the factory fitted filter is as clean as the vehicle manufacturer specifies….

唐纳森分享如何保护柴油燃料并避免代价高昂的喷油器故障
作为全球最大的独特过滤技术和高品质过滤器及零件供应商之一，唐纳森公司协助解决世界上一些最复杂的过滤和污染控制挑战。
据该公司表示，燃油过滤是整个燃油系统中不可或缺的一部分。现代的引擎越来越需要更好的燃油过滤技术，以确保将最清洁的燃油输送到引擎的燃油系统，因为受污染的燃油会导致车辆故障和昂贵的燃油系统部件维修。
唐纳森在本期的《卡客车新闻》中，回答了一些有关确保适当的燃油过滤和系统维护的常见问题。
问：我应该将额外的过滤器安装在哪里？
答：我们建议将附加过滤器视为初级过滤器并安装在工厂过滤器之前，工厂过滤器应保持原样。它可以安装在任何便于查看集水器和更换过滤器的位置。大多数的现代车辆采用回流回路燃油系统，将燃油输送到工厂安装的过滤器。引擎吸取它需要的燃油，然后将其余的送回油箱。通过将额外的过滤器安装在工厂过滤器前，油箱中的所有燃油将会持续地被过滤。不改变工厂过滤器到引擎的燃油系统，将最大限度地减少对敏感的引擎管理系统所造成的影响。这也确保到达工厂预装过滤器的燃油，与车辆制造商指定的一样干净…..。
