Description
Joe Filter is a eld service, job-site
maintenance tool used to clean fuel in
long-term storage in small tanks. Typical
applications are generator base tanks,
generator day tanks, and small bulk
storage tanks to 2000 gallons. Joe Filter
is fully portable and self-contained. Joe
is easily moved at the job-site by one
person using his built-in wheels and
handle and can be off-loaded from a
service truck via a lift-gate or ramp.
Joe Filter provides complete fuel
ltration and conditioning with his built-in
5-micron, spin-on particulate lter and 2
PPM water coalescing and separating
lter. A 6-gallon holding tank is included
for draining of the separation canister.
Joe includes a 7 GPM, cast-iron, high-lift
pump and pump control panel. Water
detection, lter differential pressure and
holding tank full alarms are provided.
A selection of hoses and wands are
supplied with Joe Filter. The service
tech need only access the tank through
an available port and insert the suction
and return hose/wand. The circulation
pump can then be run continuously until
the tech is satised with fuel condition.
Typically, at least one-quarter of the
tank is circulated, drawing from the
tank sump. The pump will automatically
stop and an alarm will be activated if
the water collection canister lls or the
particulate lter differential pressure limit
is reached. The tech can then either
drain the collection sump or replace the
particulate lter and resume ltration.
Insight
Onsite
With modern diesel engines, fuel
quality is paramount and poor fuel
quality is a prime cause of generator
set unreliability. Joe Filter is the ideal
eld service assistant for the multitude
of generator sets equipped with integral
base tanks or day tanks where fuel has
been stored long-term and may have
degraded from water and particulate
contamination and the resultant growth
of algae and bacteria and rust formation.
