SFK-439
The Stauff Heavy Fuel Filter Elements – SFK-439 Series are critical components designed to separate particles from the fluid flow, serving as the final filtration stage before direct injection into the engine room or combustor. Featuring a length of 439 mm and a diameter of 48 mm, these elements use stainless steel mesh filter media with stainless steel end caps, ensuring reliability in Heavy Fuel applications. Available with filtration ratings of 6 µm or 10 µm.
The SFK-439 series filter elements represent Stauff’s engineered solution for Heavy Fuel applications, specifically designed to ensure maximum fluid cleanliness during the most critical phases of the operating process. These components perform the vital function of separating contaminant particles from the fluid flow, acting as the final filtration stage immediately before direct injection into the engine room or combustor.
The SFK-439 series is built to withstand demanding operating conditions typical of heavy fuel supply systems.
Dimensional accuracy is essential to ensure proper installation and sealing within dedicated housings.
The primary application of these elements is particle separation in Heavy Fuel circuits. Their strategic position within the system—as the final barrier before injection—is critical for protecting sensitive engine room and combustor components from damage caused by solid contaminants, ensuring operational continuity and efficient combustion.
