Fuel Water Separator Test Bench
Category:Filter Cartridge Filtration Tester
Introduction
The Fuel Water Separator Test Bench primarily follows ISO/TS 16332-2006 “Diesel engines – Diesel filters – Evaluation of fuel-water separation performance” to test the oil-water separation characteristics of the fuel filter; and performs a cleanliness test on the fuel filter using ISO 4020-2001 “Road vehicles – Fuel filters for diesel engines”. The main technical parameters displayed are: test flow rate, system pressure, orifice plate device pressure difference, test specimen pressure difference, and medium temperature.
Applications
The Fuel Water Separator Test Bench is designed to evaluate the water separation performance and cleanliness of fuel filters used in diesel engines. Typical applications include:
Development of new fuel filter products
Comparative performance testing against international products
Quality control during production
Third-party testing and regulatory inspection
The system simulates fuel flow conditions and measures water separation efficiency, differential pressure, system pressure, and cleanliness to ensure accurate filter performance evaluation.
