I have Racor filters fitted. Do I still need the D-TX® Fuel Safe?
The best time to know you have water in your fuel is as early as possible. The D-TX® Fuel Safe monitors the fuel immediately after the fuel exits the fuel tank/s giving the earliest possible warning. We recommend filter systems, however their maintenance requirements would not be best realised or addressed if the helmsman is for example crossing the busiest shipping lanes in the world, such as the English Channel. Once water enters the filter systems, the filters saturate and need replacing. Because the filtering systems are often not immediately visible the situation can go unnoticed, resulting in particles and water flowing on through to the engine, causing damage along the way to pumps, injectors, and the engine itself – very costly!
