ABSTRACT:
A modular fuel conditioner having a base and a disposable filter/water separator cartridge releasably secured to the base and defining a filter chamber in fluid communication with fuel inlet and outlet passageways in the base. A three stage filter assembly within the cartridge includes filtering and coalescing media and separates an upper portion of the chamber from a lower portion which defines a water collection sump. A heater in the base warms fuel before it enters the cartridge. Sensing devices in the base are provided for operating signals to indicate the presence of a predetermined quantity of water in the sump and the occurrence of a plugged filter condition. A priming pump on the base is manually operated to restore the fuel conditioner to operational condition after cartridge replacement.
