The safety information is to be considered in performing all work.
The filter is suitable for the cleaning and water-removal of light diesel oils, in accordance
with DIN EN 590. It is installed in the supply flow pipe of the fuel circuit.
Installed situation
If the supply flow of the filter is below the maximum filling level in the tank, a blocking
valve must be installed between tank and filter.
If the supply flow of the filter is above the maximum filling level in the tank, a blocking
valve between tank and filter is not required as mandatory.
Basically we recommend to install a blocking valve.

capacity of the fuel pump.
For the supply pipe to the filter, the following component parts may be used exclusively:
• Straight pipe pieces.
