This is our compact 12V heated Sedimenter with heat and veg resistant viton seals that will trap water, particulate, and animal fat.   

Brand New unit with a 12 volt heater that will warm the fuel to between up to 195 deg F.  Fuel fittings are 5/16" (8mm) or 3/8" (10mm).  You must specify fitting size at the time of your purchase otherwise your sedimenter will ship with 5/16" (8mm) fittings.   

We are always willing to help you and will gladly respond to your questions.   Pleas read the following guide to learn about alternate fuel conversions.  Also included: what is a sedimentator and why do you need one.  You can also gain a lot of knowledge from this guide: http://reviews.ebay.com/Convert-your-diesel-to-Veg-Oil-WVO-SVO-UCO_W0QQugidZ10000000007415794

Two hole mounting bracket is part of the upper casting.   The 12V heater draws 8 - 12 amps.   Can be completely disassembled for cleaning.

This unit is all has a see through heat treated glass bottom gthat lets you see the trapped water and particulate that can be purged using the metal bottom thumb screw that will not break off like the plastic ones that are industry standard.  

The bottom has a drain to purge trapped water and sediment.  

We had frequent requests from buyers needing a shorter unit due to space constraints, so we built this one.  The entire unit is very compact measuring roughly 6 inches tall by 5.5 inches wide and designed to be mounted before the fuel filter.  If you are tight for space, this unit may be ideal, but if you want a taller pre-filter, see our other listings.  

Water will cause excessive wear to the injection pump and injectors as well as  deteriorate fuel quality causing power loss and injector tip coking.   G

ray or white exhaust means you are pushing water through your engine even though your fuel looks clean.  When veg temperature reaches 130 deg F the trapped water settles out.  Additional water is introduced when the fuel inside the tank is heated by a tank heater or by warm fuel coming back through the return line.  As the fuel cools down it absorbs water condensing on the inner tank walls.

What is a sedimenter and how does it work?  A sedimenter looks like a fuel filter, but contains an open space.  At the top of the open space is an inverted funnel shaped cone.  The fuel enters in the center of the cone and is forced down to the bottom where water and particulate settle out and are left behind.  The fuel then moves upward where it travels around the edge of the cone and exits.  This "fuel current" will trap water and dangerous particles that can be purged via the bottom drain.  Trapping sediment and water prior to the fuel filter will extend filter life.  Without a sedimentator water will swell the media inside the filter element choking the passages to a point where veg oil will stop flowing.  After passing through the sedimenter, the hot clean fuel exits without sediment or water and is ready to flow to your heated fuel filter. 

Items paid by standard PayPal transfers are generally shipped the next business day. After purchase, please send me your email address so I can send a users guide with the very basic operating instructions.

This is a pre-filter that mounts on the suction side before the fuel filter.  If you want a fuel filter instead, see our other listings. 

Shipping to Canada, UK, or Australia is calculated. Other areas outside continental USA will cost extra, so please send me your exact mailing address for an accurate total.
