Vessels and Housings for Fuel Filtration

Parker AFD manufactures a wide range of Parker Velcon vessels, including carbon steel pressure vessels, stainless pressure vessels & aluminum pressure vessels for filtration, water separation, and fuel treatment. Standard vessel construction is to ASME Code Section VIII, 150 psi (ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code). Other design pressures are available upon request. Vessels can be designed in a vertical or horizontal orientation fit your installation site.

Dispensing Housings

Parker Velcon small and medium size housings are multi-configurable vertical housings for point-of-use application at dispensing of fuel. For low flow rate applications, these housings can function as micronic prefilters, final fuel polishing and water removal as well as low filter water separation.

Small Filter Housings for Clean Dry Fuels with High Performance Aquacon® Filter Cartridges

The VF-609 is a versatile filter housing with bolted cover, designed for use with several different high performance Aquacon filter cartridges. Refer to the cartridge selection table on the reverse side.

The VF-61 and VF-61E are versatile filter housings designed for use with several different high performance Aquacon filter cartridges, as well as a variety of paper filters and coalescer/separator cartridges.

The VF-62 is a versatile filter housings designed for use with several different high performance Aquacon filter cartridges, as well as a variety of paper filters and coalescer/separator cartridges.

The compact Vel-Max Filter Vessel is suitable for flowrates up to 204 USGPM with micronic cartridges, up to 198 USGPM as a filter/separator, and up to 150 USGPM with CDF® monitor cartridges. The Vel-Max® can be used on mobile refueling equipment, fueling cabinets and for fixed fueling installations.

Micronic Filter Vessels

Parker Velcon Micronic Filter Vessels are the most cost effective solutions for removal of solid particulate contaminants from aviation jet fuel and diesel fuel. A full range of microfilter vessels are available to meet for flow rate needs. Available in a vertical or horizontal configuration and EI or non-EI qualified options.
