ABSTRACT:
A fuel processor device is described which is particularly adapted for replacing existing fuel filters of diesel powered machines and fuel consuming devices. The fuel processor designs described have inlet and outlet passages within their upper surface and include a lower plate assembly which provides a mounting location for various elements such as water sensors, drain valves, temperature sensors and heaters which are provided in accordance with the user's needs. The lower plate assembly may be mounted directly to a housing by a through bolt or matching threads or may be made integral with the fuel processor housing. The fuel processor device may include an integral throwaway filter element or the element may be integrated with the fuel processor housing. Various control means may be employed in connection with the fuel processor disclosed wherein the automatic drain water or other accumulated impurities from the lower portion of the fuel processor housing. Additionally, heaters and heater control elements can be installed to aid in fuel water separation and prevent fuel waxing. Since these fuel processors are adapted to be mounted to existing mounting provisions, the requirement of a remotely mounted fuel processor is avoided and therefore the provision of additional fuel lines and fittings is eliminated.
