2.1 Why Separ
In 1992, the generation SWK-2000 water separators / fuel filter was developed by the company W.
Lösing Filtertechnik e. K. as an effective system for the separation of water and dirt particles which
are contained in the fuel. Both water and dirt can lead to high wear and tear on engines as well as
the injection systems and result in expensive, intensive repairs and equipment down time.
SWK-2000 offers:
Smallest and most compact design
High separation efficiency
Low flow resistance
Long life filter element
Easy installation
Simple maintenance
Different flow rates
Minimal maintenance effort
Enviroment friendly
2.2 Function of the SWK-2000
The separation and purification process using a special patented system that is used throughout all
of the different sizes, which stick out through most compact design in relation to the effective flow
rate.
Generally, the SWK-2000 is installed on the vacuum side of the fuel system, i. e. between fuel tank
and fuel pump.
The fuel enters the filter through one of the two inlet parts, the unused port must be sealed off with
the attached plug.
Stage 1
From the inlet port, fuel flows into the filter and passes an interior vane system whereby the fuel is
moved in an intensive circular motion.
Stage 2
The centrifugal gravity, resulting from the circular motion, forces the fuel to the outer wall of the
bowl. The heavier water droplets and heavier particles collect on the wall of the bowl and settle due
to natural gravity to the bottom of the bowl.
